About this restaurant

  • Romantic

In "The Celebrity Room" there is a varying ticket charge depending on the entertainer, and a $20 food & beverage minimum.

    Was there before a show this past Saturday night and it was our first time there. Can't believe it was their last night in operation! What great food and wine selection. We were blown away at how good everything was. Such a shame it's closed. Without knowing much about the place, it does seem like the theme (Sinatra, etc.) would be a big challenge given the demographic of the area (big part of the population is under 50). Shame, awesome food and staff!

    I would go back again....however, they are closed after 3 years and restaurant is for sale. It was like going back in time....perfect décor and quite snobbish in being greeted and seated. They catered to the old and I mean OLD customers. Think that could be their problem.

    Having dined at Dino's previously, the bar was set extremely high. Again, everything was as expected...service, food, ambiance. We enjoy the grown-up dress-up experience and are so disappointed that this will be our last outing here. Best wishes to all

    The quality of our meal was over-the-top, perfect in every way. Jess, our server, was so attentive, professional and she had a great sense of humor. We were so disappointed to learn that this restaurant is closing down in the near future, we will miss everything that this restaurant had to offer.

    One of the best meals we had in a long time. We are losing a real gem and I highly recommend getting to this restaurant before they close. Outstanding food and service.

    My wife and I were celebrating our wedding anniversary and wanted to have dinner before the show. We saw all of the reviews and recommendations and we figured let’s give it a try. The wait staff was great but the food was so-so. The shrimp appetizer was over cooked and my entree of the pork chop was over cooked. The cost does not justify a return visit.
