Great food, great service and a ringside seat for a fabulous fireworks display as part of Oglebayfest! The wait staff was terrific, we loved the shrimp and grits, and the outdoor patio was perfect. So far, best restaurant at the Oglebay resort. We’ll be back.

My wife and I booked a reservation at Trace to celebrate my parents 55th anniversary. We’ve been anticipating the opening of the Trace and reviewing the menu online made us even more excited. The maître d', Hector, was wonderful and welcoming. Our table was in front of a fireplace in a dark speakeasy type environment. The music was not too loud. At 7PM, the restaurant was approximately half occupied and the volume level was just fine for us to converse. Our waitress, Felicity was great. Knowledgeable abouttheir appetizers, entrées, and the desserts. Blair was also a stand out with his oyster recommendations and talking about the high quality of the food that is received daily. We had oysters, bone marrow, various side dishes (garlic mashed potatoes, carrots with goat cheese, two servings of the delicious bread), the scallop dinner, and pork chops. Everything was fantastic, including the mango cheesecake for dessert. The cocktails were creative, another table had a cocktail with dry ice I believe. The lavender honey martini was delicious and the bacon Manhattan was spot on, complete with Luxardo cherries. I highly recommend Trace for anyone looking for an elevated dining experience whether you are staying at the Oglebay resort or not. 5 stars, way to go, Oglebay!

Mark and the Bar staff always amazing !! Best Steahouse never had a bad meal in years there !

Food was great, our server Gavin was wonderful. The service in this restaurant tends to be rather slow for food coming out of the kitchen, but he stayed right on top of things. As far as noise, midway through our meal at some point, someone decided it would be better to turn the volume up on the music. I don’t know why people do this. Soft background is fine but when it’s so loud it’s beating through the room, it’s ridiculous and not at all desirable.

Very surprising when you enter the building and they did a excellent job of the interior to make people feel wanted and provide a nice comfortable place to have dinner and or drinks
