    I took my boyfriend here the other day for his birthday and we had an amazing time. This was the first time either of us experienced a coat check for a restaurant which came as a surprise, but that was a very appreciated detail of the overall experience. Our waiter Isaac was phenomenal. He was very thorough in describing the food, as well as the reason for different things that they add to the food to enhance the aroma and flavour. He was very personable and provided outstanding customer service. The food was amazing. We had the beef Wellington experience, which was done by Isaac himself. It came out phenomenal. We also had the New York steak as well as the mac & cheese and those were also amazing. And of course to top it off, we had to have the 13 layer cake which I highly recommend. Isaac has also recommended some drinks for us, which were really good. We both really enjoy our time there and will definitely come back.

    What a wonderful experience today at Reign. - The service was absolutely wonderful and we felt very pampered by our server (sorry, did not get his name but he recognized and greeted me as returning customer even though it's been a while since I've been here. - The food was delicious and portions were quite big which was a surprise and I hated to leave half my meal behind. - your setting is perfect for a special lunch. Very easy to talk without any distracting music or other noises. Thanks!
