From the host to the general manager, wait staff and bartenders, this place was top notch! Drinks were perfect, food was on point and the general vibe was fantastic. Bourbon and whiskey selection was extensive. This is a place not to be missed. We were there to start a special date night and they did not disappoint. Highly recommend the chowder and the seafood risotto. Superb! Thank you for a wonderful night!

We have been going to Cobalt since they opened. (I wanna say 2018) We might be biased because we go every week and love the drinks, the food, and the amazing team. However....go there once, go there twice... meet Yago, Eric, Maria, Bernadette ... and you will soon be biased. Always changing, always fun, and always welcome. Go there tomorrow. Tell em Jeff sent you. (they may kick you out for saying that, but what a story)

Cobalt always does everything well. We came for the Valentine's prix fixe menu which had several great options and was very well executed. Staff was personable and timely, drinks were great as well.

The food is definitely for a refined palette. If you are looking for hearty portions and seasoning styles that remind you of home, please see other establishments!The service was wonderful and our server was very attentive! The ambience of the restaurant was beautifully cultivated as well. Our meal just left more to be desired, especially at $200+. We dined here for Valentine’s Day, so please know more menu options are typically available. We are speaking from the offerings available on that particular evening.
