The food and ambience were truly exceptional—thoughtfully crafted dishes in a beautifully designed space. However, the overall experience was dampened by the service. Despite multiple polite requests, we weren’t offered bread until after placing our order, which felt unnecessarily rigid. Our server also struggled to answer basic menu questions, leaving us a bit uncertain. I was hoping for a seamless celebration for my birthday, but unfortunately, the service left a lasting impression for the wrong reasons.

This is my fourth time coming to Revery and I just love it. The food is always good, but their crème brûlée is my favorite! I also really enjoy their mocktails — super tasty and refreshing. The place feels cozy and the staff is always kind. Always happy to come back.
