    The evening was very busy as it was Saturday and apparently the last night for the restaurant. As such the ambience was very energetic with a lot of chatter in the room making it difficult to speak to one another. However, the staff were very polite and efficient in taking the orders and brining the food. My wife had the crabcakes and I had the blackened ribeye steak. The wine I ordered was Tribute Cabernet Sauvignon and turned out to be an exceptional pairing with the steak. The wine list was limited in its selections and most were mediocre in value. We finished up with the chocolate cake that was very rich, dense and delicious. The valet service was very well organized. Overall, this is a high-class restaurant and I am sad at the prospect that it may be no more.

    Our experience at Dressler's Birkdale was exceptional. I am ever so excited that our dining experience is consistently excellent. I have mixed emotions about the closing of Dresslers and the new opening of Fin & Fino at Birkdale. I do look forward to a somewhat different venue, but I know that John and his staff are well prepared for the change.

    We had a fabulous meal. The halibut was delicious as usual and so was the broccolini. We love going here for a real dinner out. We are very sad that they are replacing Dressler's Birkdale with Fin and Fino. The last thing Birkdale needs is another small plate venue. With Foxcroft across the street, Bar Taco, and a brewery in between, Dressler's fits a niche that will now be sadly lacking.

    our server was nice, the kitchen or food runners never brought out our side dishes, by the time they came to the table (after we mentioned to our server we hadn't received them) we were already finished with our entrees. other then that food was delicious keep mushroom risotto if you change menu for fin and fino and the delmanico ribeye and steak and lobster linguini

    Price did not match food quality. That’s not to say the food wasn’t great, because it was but the prices were still a little too high for what we received. Charcuterie board was also very light on contents for the price.

    Food was fantastic! We started with the smoked salmon and crab dip appetizers. Both were delicious. The crab in the dip were huge chunks! I had the lamb chops and they were cooked perfectly. My husband has the shrimp and lobster linguini and he finished every bite. Service was wonderful. Will definitely return.

    The server wasn’t very friendly and didn’t seem to be happy to be there. She was short and curt with her responses. Only at the end of the meal did she seem to warm up and smile and thank us for coming in. I suppose that was because she wanted a nice tip, but service is from beginning to end. I only left a 20% tip because I thought it was appropriate, not on how we were treated.
