   This is a tough one because it was Christmas Eve and very busy so I want to give some slack, but then again we know what date Christmas Eve is and that it will be very busy so it is possible to prepare for that chaos, which makes me less sympathetic to the issues we encountered. Pros: incredibly kind staff. Genuinely kind. Food was good (not great). Some elements were fantastic, some missed the mark. For example, my short ribs were melt-in-your-mouth delicious but the vegetable side was not roasted enough so the texture was off. The toast served with the caprese burrata was chewy rather than toasty but the flavors were incredible. Cons: timing was way off. We waited for awhile after we were seated, no offer of drinks or apps. By the time we were served we knew our entire order so got that in right away. The staff kept bringing dishes to the wrong table, forgetting orders, getting orders wrong. Nothing major or un-fix-able, just that attention to detail and timing that makes a nice restaurant a pleasant experience was lacking. My French 75 came without the lemon twist and the guy at the table next to us got a lemon twist in his olive martini. I asked for a recommendation for a wine that would work with salmon and short ribs so my husband and I could share a bottle but the waiter brought individual glasses instead and they didn’t come until we were halfway through our entree. If we wanted individual glasses, we would have selected wine that went best with each of our dishes. Little things like that consistently happened throughout the meal. One other thing that was less than stellar was the seating. The tables were less than 2’ apart. Just far enough apart to squeeze a server in between but close enough I could hear every word the tables on either side of us were saying, which was distracting. Overall, it was good and I would go back but I hope they work on really paying attention to detail and timing. It’s the difference between a good experience and a great one.

   We went to Woven for my husband's birthday which is also Christmas eve. My friends told me to be sure to reserve a table in the lower part of the restaurant. The menu was super interesting and we are excited to go back. However, the very bright LED lighting and very modern decor with lots of hard surfaces put us off a little. It was rather cafeteria like. Food was excellent, service was excellent as well.

   My family member had migraine during the entire time because the guests from other tables were making very loud noises, but the waiters did not bother to talk to them.

   Patience did an amazing job serving us. Gianna brought our appetizers in under 7 minutes. Clayton did a great job with the steak and Pho Ribs. Evelyn made an excellent comp app. Alex made a wonderful burata caprese. Kevin made fantastic Brussels. Jesus made excellent wings. Sarah's rissoto was magnificent. Chef Josh quarterbacked the whole thing. The presentation was on point!

   We always love coming to Woven. The menu has slightly changed each time we’ve come, and I love trying the new things on the menu.

    Our server was super sweet and on top of it. I ordered chicken wings to start off. The wings came out a little under cook and was still pink. They took it back immediately and gave us fresh ones that was properly cooked. The manager even came out and apologized. At the end of the day we were offered dessert on the house of our choice. They even brought out an extra one for us! Overall my friends and I had a great experience there. They end up taking the wings and both desserts off our bill.
