    The service was exceptionally fast and friendly. The king & rye drink was our favorite. Will be going back to try the other drinks. The steak was cooked to perfection as well as our other dishes. The food left or mouths watering and craving for more. The lighting wasn't too bright which gave our dining experience for 2 an intimate ambiance.

    We have made it a tradition with some friends to meet over the holidays at Chandler’s, and it always has been very enjoyable with this time no exception. My Halibut A La Plancha was the most delicious entree I have had there!

    This was by far the best dining experience I have ever had. Every single person who helped us - from the host attendants to the bar team and Caden, our server - was patient, thoughtful and hospitable. We never felt rushed and felt so taken care of. Cocktails were complex and perfectly balanced. The bartenders were patient despite having a full bar and walked us through the menu. The server “assistants” were already aware we are pescatarian which we noted on OpenTable and let us know what alternatives they could offer for different menu items. This really never happens at other restaurants. You note it but it is not taken into consideration at the restaurant or servers are not made aware. This was a really thoughtful touch for us. Caden was so helpful in making recommendations and guiding us through the menu. The food was spectacular. We had the prawns, oysters, crudo, broccoli, cavatelli and market fish. Complex, layered flavors and interesting textures. Very ingredient driven. Each plate was small enough that we could try many things, but we were properly stuffed by the end! I cannot wait to come back. It is a MUST TRY. **While it’s never the most important characteristic for us, the ambiance and decor were cozy and added to the overall experience and the music playlist was great and not overpowering.
