Jacques was a great host, he had a rage section and was still very attentive and knowledgeable on the menu. Manager was nice as well. Would definitely return in the future.

We all enjoyed the food. Not realizing it’s a sports bar, we almost left when we entered because it was so noisy. However, the host suggested a quieter seating area and it was fine.

We have been to The Highwood several times over the last few years. This was by far our best experience. The noise level was much lower than in the past. The food was very good. And the service was excellent. We will be back many times.

Great server. Food was surprisingly good and a lot of it. Overpriced for what it is, but makes sense, given the location. Nachos were a meal in themselves and really good despite not looking like they would be. Even the sushi roll was good.
