   This place was everything the reviews say they are. Service amazing. Food excellent. Mary was our server and she was amazing. I’m very hard to impress, so used to being let down at other places, but Culina was EVERYTHING!! MY BIRTHDAY DINNER WAS GREAT!! They even brought out a slice of cake that said happy birthday for me. So happy

   The service couldn't have been better. From the host to the charming waiter to the staff, we were thoughtfully looked after. The food was delicious - one of the best veal chops I've ever had. Highly recommend the tuna tartare. It's also a beautiful room, with tables spaced at a comfortable distance. This place makes for a great place to treat someone.

   I am changing my review from a 1 star to a 5 star. The chef called and spoke to me and we figured out it was all a misunderstanding. I will be going back very shortly.

    2 staff who were assigned to serve at our table were outstanding. Food was fabulous. Vegan menu was given to us when we requested. It would have been an outstanding experience if: 1. they reviewed the reservation details. I changed the reservation from 4 to 5 people. If was confirmed. I called 2 times to make sure that they know that it was changed to 5 people. However, when we got there, the table was set for only 4 people. We had to wait until they set up another table to accommodate the 5th guest. 2. I specifically stated that my guests are vegan. There were not vegan menu set on the table. We had to request for 3 sets of vegan menus.

    Decided to try Culina for there famous Easter Bruch. Very chaotic and had to wait even with reservation, they sat us at a "wrong table", I think they wanted to give the table to regulars (I saw people that came after us sat on our first table). We were moved to another table and it was not setup and servers didn't come for a while, we had asked for utensils etc. took a while for class of toxic water($6) and didn't even ask us if we wanted wine. I had to request a wine menu. Very slow and disjoined service with very confused front desk staff. Seen many staff/managers standing around but not sure what they were doing. Cold food/seafood was good with fresh seafood. Carving section was good, hot food was ok, but not tasty. Salad and bread section was ok as well. Fruit section was average with standard variety. Dessert was most disappointing, all tasted similar with small bite sizes and overly sweet taste. I understand customers may enjoy bite size deserts, but it would have been nice to see slices up cakes as well. But donut section was outstanding! I would recommend to people that never tried Easter brunch but not good to repeated experience. With slow unattentive service with confused front desks staff, I will give this place 3 stars since food was ok.

    Always a favorite. My family loves the overall dining experience, the service, the food, the atmosphere. The Chef is the best, days later we remembered the food, after dining at another establishment, wished we'd maybe gone back for the repeat food experience. All to saw we found after dining at Culina, it's difficult to measure up. Compliments to the Chef for an excellent menu. Our dining experience at Culina consistently exceeds our expectations.

    The food was great and the price is reasonable for the quality. It is more of a leisure restaurant for a lot of local seniors. Not Instagram-y. The live singing was great.

    My man and I went in on Valentine’s Day and unfortunately had a terrible experience. The food was wonderful but the service was terrible. We came in at 8:15 for a pricey Prix Fix menu which had pre selected courses so the service should not have been difficult, yet our experience lasted 3 hours, with us not getting our main course until two hours in because our food took so long. Yet we watched all the other tables around us get their orders even when they came in after us. It was obvious our waiter had forgotten to put in our order and never apologized for it. And we ended up being the very last people in the restaurant out back. We asked for napkins, a spoon for my soup, to then speak with the manager and everything took forever to happen. So so unfortunate for a Valentine’s Day experience and the first with a new relationship. The food was great but the service was bad enough, we’ll never go back.

    Quality of food was fine, but dessert was the best course. Had higher expectations for the cooking of the veal and scallop dishes. Staff was friendly, but there was a long delay between courses and about ~20 minutes to get a drink.

    Where should I start. I arrive for my $160 per person pre-fix dinner with reservation and they proceed to bring me outside on a 48 degree night. Nowhere on open table did they say outdoor dining and it was cold. They tell me they have no tables in the dining room and sit us at a awkward table in the corner of the bar between two doors I guess the expensive dress I bought my girl I couldn't even see because she was freezing and wore her coat the entire evening. Food was decent portions were small considering the amount of the pre-fix, never got a glass of champagne. Server was super nice and tried to make the best of it, he actually saved the management staff. Overall kinda disgusted that my valentines day dinner for over $600 for two people was spent in the corner of the bar at the entrance of the restaurant. Shame on the managers you went for profits. Shocked that you're even qualified to work at a four seasons property pulling a stunt like this.

    Always a treat to return to Culina! We tried the tricolor salad and it was amazing, much like a chopped salad. Grapes and sliced almonds added to the flavor. My pizza margarita tasted of the Mariano tomatoes said to be included. The pollo arresto e zucco with jidori sauce was a delight. Service was amiable.
