Gave the bride food poisoning along with a few members of the wedding party and never responded to any communications about it. The atmosphere was red and blue police lights directly outside the window the entire meal. Server did her best.

Great service and great food! Pan seared scallap was a little bit too salty but the butternut squash pasta is amazing

For the price, I was expecting this to be a 5 star meal, but it fell short. Prices are way too high and the quality of the food just didn’t hit the mark. I had the filet and it was good, but not $60 good; I’ve had better steaks elsewhere. The espresso martini was divine though so definitely hit up the bar but skip the restaurant.

Beth, Emma, are the kindest and most helpful. The food is fantastic. We got the “ribeye” and caesar salad. The chef is quite special too. Anyway, please ask for Emma or Beth and you’ll have a great experience. I truly enjoyed.

The decor is very nice and elegant. But the food! Omggg! Very bad! I ordered beef ribs and this is what came in. A rare, blood-tasting meat. They said it was sous vide and perfectly cooked (horrible). The meat was unseasoned and they refused to season it further when we asked. Also, my friends ordered the wagyu burger well done and the inside was completely rare and bloody. Their burgers was also soggy in loads of oil. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT! It was for my friend’s birthday and nobody could finish 75% of their dish. The worst culinary experience I have had a a luxe restaurant.

Historic hotel and beautiful during the Christmas season. We went to dinner with friends expecting a delicious meal and got something quite disappointing. First of all the lack of variety on the menu was surprising. We ordered the lobster mac and cheese which was essentially a very large bowl of mac and cheese with only a few tough chewy pieces of lobster in it. For $42! The waitress service was ok, and we didn’t want to complain to her, as she was not the one to prepare the food. Would not recommend or go there for dinner again.

This is a good spot to eat late when all restaurants close. The bar and grill is located in a historic hotel. Great staff, good food
