    All our food was fantastic! My New York Steak was perfect. Our waiter, wish I remembered his name, was great!! He is a bartender as well and knows his food and drinks, he made great recommendations. If we lived here we would definitely be back.

    Stellar experience with JD and Arthur. We had a bottle of an Italian vermentino recommended by Arthur their sommelier, Tuna Sushi, steak tartare, Caesar salad, filet flight, 1/2 order of French fries and 1/2 order mushrooms. JDs recommendations were spot on. Loved every bit of food! Perfect amount for 3 people and such a great vibe for bringing out of town guests. Make a reservation. Very busy even on Sunday evening. We will be back!

    We went to Guard and Grace for our anniversary dinner. The waiter told us we would get a free desert. He gave us a greeting card. But when the bill came, they charged us for desert and also 4% extra for sharing two HUGE sides. One person could not eat such huge sides. Also surprised that the house cab cost $19 for a glass. We found this place to be too noisy and casual for us. We could not converse over all the racket. It was disappointing. The food was good, but we won't be back.

    One of my favorites! They always provide great service and the food is excellent. The main dining room is often pretty loud but we were able to sit in the back dining room which is quieter and not as busy.

    This place was amazing! From valet, to be seated, to our waiter, to the drinks, to dinner. I have never had food that tasted this great and service that was immaculate such as this.

    First of all, the staff was outstanding from the person who seated us to the server, Sean, to Peter who kept our water filled and plates cleared. The Wagyu beef, lobster, salad, sides, and desserts were excellently prepared and delicious.

    This was an amazing experience from start to finish. The food? Incredible. I’ve been to plenty of upscale spots where I’ve spent triple the amount, and they still don’t compare. The vibe is perfect for a date night—romantic, cozy, and well thought out. What really stood out was the service: from the moment we walked in, every staff member we passed greeted us with a smile and positive energy. It felt like everyone genuinely wanted us to have a great time. Highly recommend!

What is truly so special about this restaurant is not only the food being amazing, but the staff is what knocks it out of the park!! We truly hope to see you in again soon :) -Jenna Ferrini, Guest Relations Manager

    we each ordered a steak, and they came out cooked incorrectly (one overcooked, one under), so we sent them back. we had a chef and a manager come by and apologize for the steaks and thank us for letting them try again. all the food was excellent once it came out correctly and the service was great. when we got the bill, they had charged us for a third steak. they claimed it was a mistake and took it off. they did give us a free dessert for the trouble.
