Very small and intimate setting. My Fiancee and I were thrilled with our appetizers of sweet potato soup and tuna crudo however the main entree of trofie pasta and apple cake dessert were slightly disappointing. My main course of strip steak was great except the portion was on the smaller side. Service was excellent. Overall, I would still recommend to a friend as the courses changes daily and the BYOB is a huge plus, however it did not meet our high expectations.

This was a delicious, reasonably price prix-fixe menu, plus BYOB option is great in these days of perpetual restaurant sticker shock. I had the tuna crudo, friend had the salad, we both had the fish (red snapper, I think), she had the apple tart and I went with the chocolate dessert. All very good. Nice service, beautiful ambiance. Note that we were very early, pre-theatre, 5pm reservation, so can't speak to the noise level when the restaurant is full.

We were in town visiting from Chicago and I went searching for a dinner location. I happened upon Pumpkin after looking for available times and seeing the reviews in OpenTable. Pumpkin is quaint with amazing service. The 3 course meal (at $55) is an amazing deal! The food was great and service attentive. We loved our meal and enjoyed the ambiance. I highly recommend checking out the daily menu to see what they're serving, pick out some of the extras that they offer, and then head on over for dinner. You won't be disappointed.

Absolutely perfect evening out with friends. We were the only guests at the small restaurant on a Sunday night. Food was delicious. It's a tasting menu with a few choices of appetizers, entrees and desserts. Service by David could not have been more attentive - without hovering over us. Our friends fell in love with the music playlist, curated by the chef owner, Ian. He ended up talking to us for a long time - about food, music, growing up. They went over and above to accommodate our wishes - even finding a leftover chocolate dessert from another night's menu for a couple of chocolate lovers.

1) Chef Ian did a great job of creating interesting flavors and dishes. 2) Table service was abysmal/checked out. (e.g. entree served but no flatware, etc.) 3) The restaurant would be more attractive with a listed menu instead of prix fixe.

We experienced superb food as always at Pumpkin, but also really exceptional service. And no just at the table either: they accommodated gracefully our constantly-shifting party size and changing reservation-time. Everyone felt celebrated, relaxed, and wonderfully well-fed.

I really wanted to like this place! The food is pretty, however did not taste good. Steak tasted like beef jerky. Soup was bland. Swordfish tasted like tofu. Desserts were both delicious. Really cute, intimate ambience.

Never had a more tender piece of swordfish, and I loved that it came with blue corn grits. Delicious! The oysters, too, were outstanding. Pumpkin rocks.

Delicious, beautifully presented cuisine. Service was disappointing. Only one person was working the front of the house. Originally we sat outside, but the mosquitoes started attacking so we asked to move indoors. The server didn’t help to move all of our food and drink from the outdoor table inside, so we went back-and-forth 3x carrying our glasses, dishes, utensils. We needed water refilled, and needed napkins, as the paper ones from outside were soiled.

55 for three courses of well-considered, lovingly prepared food. Relaxed wait staff, no corking fee, easy access to street parking, a recipe for a frictionless special evening. So glad I heard about this place!

Overall, we had a good experience at Pumpkin BYOB. We went for restaurant week and tried items we typically would have if dining from the normal menu. The restaurant itself is quite tiny. We were cramped into a small corner. The servers were pleasant and answered all questions we had about the menu. The food was ok. I would describe it as upscale health food with relatively small portions. The bread was $4.00 extra and should have been free with the meal. I would go back for restaurant week or a special experience, I would probably not pay regular prices to dine there again.

Food was good but smaller portions. We ordered bred with olive oil and the olive oil had no seasoning, so a bit disappointed. Flank steak was incredible. Appetizers very good. Would have loved to eat outside, but we had a lovely time and would come again.
