Came here for a company lunch. Food is super tasty and we scarfed it all down. The chicken sandwich has just the right amount of kick in it. The fries are so good. Drinks weren't bad either. It would be interesting to see how this place at night but lunch was quiet and easy going.
Oh wow. The appetisers were so good. I come from a long line of southern women who are clutching their pearls at this comment, but the very best deviled eggs I have ever tasted in my LIFE were here. Get those. Eat them all. Don't share. Your friends will understand and order their own. Delicious fried pig ears. Yummy cured meats. Super tasty burger. I got it as suggested, medium rare, which is more red than I typically prefer. But oh wow, the flavor was so good. Get shown around. There are lots of details in the decor.
This restaurant is all around great but definitely not exceptional. Food is seasoned well, the service is great and the ambiance is perfect. With this price point I expected slightly more extravagant flavors. By far the best dish was desert with it simple but perfect flavor combinations.
10-14-18: Had brunch again and it was the highlight of all meals. The flapjacks were light and fluffy. Also shared the oysters Benedict. Rich and delicious. 10-13-18: Brunch was excellent! Had the waffle with salmon and the Greek yogurt. Both were fantastic. Service was excellent.
One of the best hotel restaurants I have ever been to... Staff looked professional and played the part. We had some great snacks while watching the NBA Finals. 8 ham board was great idea with individually sliced hams from across the world...and identified on the presentation. Beans and radishes were well presented too. Don't miss out on grilled cheese. Wish we had room and time for fried rabbit. Not alot of value to be found on the wine list, but if budget is a concern...make sure to get to either of their two daily happy hours. Keep up the good work.
Very good diner with a Giant piece of meat to share. 3 to 4 people. Good desert and nice wine selection. Not the cheapest place but I'd do it again.
Visiting from out of town, I started with the grilled cheese with duck egg, and then moved onto the lamb entree with a side of potatoes. The food was just incredible and the service was excellent. Give yourself a little extra time to really enjoy this phenomenal dining experience.
Great food, great service and great ambience. Our group of friends thoroughly enjoyed the pin bone steak and the accompanying sides. The meat was well cooked (medium- rare) and deliciously seasoned. My only complaint is that it could have been served warmer. The desserts were also decadent. I highly recommend!
