Our reservations were at 8:15, we arrived early. Two gross arrived after is and we’re seated before us. At 8:35 they said our table was ready which was right beside the kitchen. I didn’t want to sit there so we waited another 10 min for a table. We were seated with no menus and no water. A couple that came in after us was seated across the tire from us and received both menus and water before we did. We ordered before then, two entrees, 1 mixed feeding and a bottle of pelagrino. Or server didn’t ask how I would like my steak cooked. The couple across the way ordered after us. They revived their food while we were still waiting. 45 minutes later we still had not received our food. We asked the server and she said she would check and came back with our food. My vegetables were cold and the steak was very over cooked. Her response was only she was sorry. Unfortunately we will not be going back

I had a great experience at Griffin’s! The food and drinks were absolutely top-notch definitely a 10/10. I especially loved the meatballs and esquites both were flavorful and well-prepared, showing real care in the kitchen. The atmosphere was welcoming, I’d definitely recommend griffin’s.

This restaurant has potential but is trying to do too much at once. We were there on Thursday when they have live music and half off bottles of wine. The music was very, very loud and did not match the upscale ambience the restaurant seemed to be going for. We were moved to a different section of the restaurant that was somewhat quieter but then a kitchen snafu resulted in that area being filled with smoke. To top it off, our food came out incorrectly. We sent it back and left.

We really liked the sharable portions. The meatballs were delicious, patatas were spot on, and the creamed corn had a unique fresh taste. Cocktail service is very slow and on the Sunday night that we went, while our server was very nice, it was obviously a bit overwhelming for her to service so many tables. We will give it a second chance.

Our server was incredibly absent minded. We were sat at a table that was not properly cleaned. Dessert sticky food and dried up food. It was really unappealing. Our drinks took forever. And our server took forever to take our order. Their Internet or system was down, but they seemed inept at taking orders the old fashioned way. I notice the table next to me also had issues. The waiter left us with the checkout machine and didn’t come back. It was just strange. Doesn’t make me want to go back. I took my mom for Mother’s Day dinner there. Again, service was slow then too.

This was our first time dining at Griffen’s. We are not impressed with the ambiance nor the service. The food was good, but we will not be returning.

Fantastic food. Drinks were some of the best I've ever had. Energy was incredible. Upscale without being stuffy. Service was great. I highly recommend the brussel sprouts and oxtail, and the Danger and Royal drinks. We will definitely be back!!
