Tasting menu was lovely and well-priced. The interior was fairly relaxed for an upscale restaurant, which gave it a warm, homey vibe, and the tasting menu flavors echoed the environment.

The tasting menu is lovely. Well balanced, fairly priced and a good amount of food. All the dishes seemed very thoughtful and were well presented. This place is upscale but still has an approachable feel which I find really nice! I’d recommend this place to try!

Went here on a whim last Saturday evening, and it was not at all what I expected (though not necessary in a bad way). With a name like “The Musket Room”, I was expecting wood paneling, some dead animal heads, and maybe a musket on the wall. It fact, the atmosphere was modern, trendy, and fairly unassuming. My impression is that the restaurant wanted the food, not the decor, to make the impression. I had the omnivore tasting menu with the wine pairing. With the first toe courses (caviar and lamb tartar, along with a champagne wine pairing) I was worried that I committed to a fairly expensive outing for only “okay” food. Fortunately, things improved markedly from there. The octopus and pork dishes were fantastic, and the wine pairings got more interesting as the evening progressed. The Jamon and mussel supplement was worth the add-on (though I’d suggest splitting it, just so you can try it). Overall, I thought it was an interesting culinary experience and I’m glad I did it, but I probably won’t go back at that price point.

Went here for an indulgent anniversary dinner. Did not disappoint! In fact we left deciding this needs to become an annual tradition. We got the vegan tasting menu with the added reserve wine pairing, which were both phenomenal. The flavors were so complex and some dishes introduced me to spices and ingredients I had never eaten. The staff were delightful and so informative. Absolute wonderful experience.

This restaurant has been on my list all year so my expectations were high but the meal never quite lived up to the hype. My boyfriend and I went there on a Friday night and the place was strangely empty (I guess that’s august in the city for you). We both ordered the omnivore tasting menu with wine pairing which came out to around $250 a person without tip. The start of the meal is probably the most disappointing with the king caviar being extremely salty and the lamb tartare on the opposite end completely lacking seasoning and flavor. The highlights were the bread, harissa octopus, corn soup and ham add on we did. Wine pairings were interesting and with the exception of the champagne at the beginning, probably the most exciting and fun thing about the evening. In the end the food was good, but for the price, portion size, and level of buzz, it wasn’t enough for me to give it a rave or even recommend it to friends. I’m glad I can check it off my list but I will not return.

Our experience at the Musket Room just wasn’t up to par. The table wasn’t ready at our arrival, so we had to wait at the bar (coats still on). The table we got was terrible, on one side was a busy walkway, at the other side of the table was some sort of wine station/storage where the staff would get the wines and clean wine glasses. This is by itself absolutely inexcusable for this type of restaurant.

The food was great but the service was not. I ordered a cocktail pairing at the beginning of 7 course meal and the last cocktail wasn’t brought to me until after we paid the check.

Celebrated my 10 year veganniversary here. I wanted to splurge at a special restaurant. They have a vegan tasting menu which is why I picked this place. I loved it. Great atmosphere and vibes – it was pretty, rustic-style, nice music, and beautiful lighting. The staff was attentive and friendly – just the right balance. I felt comfortable there! The courses were served at a great pace. It took just over an hour for me to get through everything and then I enjoyed espresso. I got to try lots of flavors and ingredients I never had before. If the portions look too small, fear not, because by the end I was actually stuffed. My favorite course was the Hawaiian hearts of palm. Everything was so creative and delicious!The drink menu was impressive and I loved the one I tried (Japanese gin and beets). If I wasn’t such a lightweight I would’ve ordered another drink. Delicious espresso too. The menu changes often so I’ll have to find a new reason to go back, especially when the backyard is open.
