    Food was fantastic. I always have such a great experience at Pairings. The live music wasn’t my taste and a little loud. Otherwise, good as always.

    Service and our meals were superb. Lovely seasonal menu . The Lobster Mac n cheese was a huge hit as well and the squash soup. The steak and duck entrees were delicious! Save room for dessert as the lemon curd fruit tart was an excellent ending to our delicious dinner.
