Overall the restaurant was disappointing, and I would not recommend it for a business dinner. My seafood pasta was fine and the service was good. The problems were the restaurant was very loud because of some large parties at the restaurant. One of the large parties was a corporate party on a patio. The restaurant left the doors open to the patio. This caused the noise level to be very loud and it was cold as the wind kept blowing through the restaurant. This took away from the fine dining experience. I would definitely have to consider going somewhere else for my next business dinner.

We enjoyed the meal and customer service. We felt important and well received from the moment we arrived. Our waitress, Caroline, was attentive and responsive to our needs, including concern for my food allergies. The restaurant could use an upgrade - the furniture in particular is worn and the flooring/decor is dated.

We had an early reservation and that was great! Not crowded. The service was excellent and multiple servers were assisting in making sure everything was good. We had the Thanksgiving meal and my granddaughter had the Mac and Cheese. The turkey and mashed potatoes were delicious. The sides were ok. It would be nice to have choices on the sides. We had a bite of the sweet potatoes, it was ok. The green beans were ok. Nothing had a lot of flavor. We had the soup for our first course, butternut squash soup. Not a lot of flavor. BUT, the Mac and Cheese was the bomb. All in all, the service and the Mac and Cheese with the turkey and mashed potatoes made it a good time for us.

Rare find in Spectrum. Menu changes slightly giving tasty new options. Butter creme cake is skillet style and very good (ask for extra ice cream though). Comfortable seating inside or out, not too close together so good conservation even private can happen.

We had a very good meal, the Cajun shrimp was absolutely phenomenal, I decided to go with steak salad instead of the filet mignon. It wasn't bad, but wasn't what I had expected, with no fault of the staff/cook. The spinach artichoke dip was the best I have ever tasted. It had a little bit of spice to it that I couldn't put my finger on. I would definitely go back!

Sad to say but the food was not memorable. It was good but not OMG good. It did come out piping hot. And the cheddar biscuits and honey thyme butter i could eat a dozen easily -- get.them! The butter cake was a HUGE disappointment. The atmosphere was lovely and comfortable. For the price, not worth it. If you're going for cocktails and wine tasting then this would be a fun spot for date night.

Stopped by on a Saturday afternoon for lunch and the restaurant had ample seating. Been here before for dinner and it’s a very different experience. If you want a quiet meal, afternoon is good. If you want a more energetic vibe, I recommend evenings. Regardless, the food is always good and the staff are very friendly and helpful.

Food was very poor- ordered a medium rare ribeye & the steak cobb. The steakhouse Cobb came out with bacon even though I asked for without- when it was brought to the servers attention, he just said “sorry” and ran away… no offer to help remove the bacon or remake it. The Ribeye came out mooing- even the inattentive server pointed out how “pink” it looked, but again- no offer to take it back. The ambiance is awkward with bright lightening overhead. Definitely will not be coming back and paying for overpriced food with poor service.

We had a wonderful dinner with friends last night. Our server, Ryan was great! He made sure that we had what we needed, but also gave us time to visit with our friends. I had the Alaskan Halibut and it was the best halibut that I have ever had. Too many times halibut can be dry. I will definitely come back to have the halibut again! The roasted cauliflower was also delicious!

We loved everything about it except our server. Debi D was inattentive, lukewarm and I don’t think ever cracked a smile. If I were to go back, I would request to not be in her area.

Service was sub-par for this level of dining. Slow, the food was auctioned at time of service, plates weren't cleared in a timely manner. At no point were we asked if the course was to our liking. Entrees were under-salted which certainly better than over. Desert was over cooked and dry. Coffee was watery and cold. I could go on but you get the point. Roadside diner dressed up as fine dining.
