Absolutely amazing food and service! We will definitely return. Only suggestion would be a different playlist, other than that it was incredible.

Overly disappointed. Most appalling finding a dead mouse under our dinner table shortly after arriving. Against our better judgement we stayed to honour our reservation, receiving no acknowledgement or consideration throughout our stay. Staff carried on like this was an every day occurrence. Disgusting. No happy hour reduction on any of our drinks or any other form of customer care. Clearly we are not important to you. There were 10 of us, we spent a bundle. We will not be back.

We ate here for the five course New Year’s Eve dinner, which overall was a fun experience. Our server was friendly and found the answers to our questions. Both bourbon drinks tasted watered down (the second one might not have had any in it), so were very overpriced instead of just slightly overpriced. The wine was also very expensive (I’d expect the 9 oz pours to be closer to the 6 oz costs). The food ranged from disappointing to creative and delicious. The highlights were the amuse bouche olives, the Caesar and Waldorf salads, the pepper threads, and the fried Apple pies (though these could have been smaller/shorter and therefore easier to eat). The beef Wellington meat was cooked perfectly, but the crust was soft and not flaky at all. The duck confit’s cabbage purée was fantastic but the duck itself was very salty. Everything else was good without standing out much either way. For what it was, I think the price was a little too high.
