    Fantastic birthday dinner last night. Always love doing birthday dinners and special occasions here. The room was filled with energy, lively conversation amid copious amounts of wine for our wine dinner. We ordered well, and all the plates came out fabulous. New unexpected favorites from the chicken and chops we've not had before, in addition to our usual steaks. Coursed out very well, very timely. Everyone was respectful, servers were on top of everything to make the dining experience Quality!

    Went out for our delayed Anniversary lunch - We were treated absolutely famously even after being late by the torrential rain storm - As one of our favorite mac & cheese, dishes in the whole wide world never disappoints Was in the mood for a lighter faire than steak, so we went with the pork chop and split the delicious burger ! The old world charm of this place and its tribute to the old traditions is always a pleasure to see executed flawlessly. I have an always will highly recommend S&W
