    We had dinner at M&S before going to the theater. It was noted that we had the theater to attend, and our server,Anthony, was on top of it so we didn’t have to be concerned with timing. Anthony knew the menu and the bar / wines very well, and was able to explain and help with any questions. Service was great and the food was SO good. We have never been disappointed with our evening at M&S and this was no exception. We will be back again….

    Our sever came to our table a total of 3x, had to track him down for help. Also, we had to get the check adjusted due dishes not being delivered before we finished our entree.

    Overall our experience was excellent! From the hostess to our server, Autumnly, we felt welcomed & cared for throughout our time at M&S. The calamari & crab/shrimp stuffed salmon was scrumptious.

    Incredibly slow and not busy. Not attentive and no effort to serve drinks timely or take food order. We saw hostess go looking for waiter on numerous occasions.

    Order not placed correctly. The food was just so-so. Quite disappointed as I have eaten at several other MS restaurants.
