Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

The Boardroom exudes charm with its "superb cocktail" menu and "personal attention from the wait staff and the chef." Chef Terry's dishes, especially her corn soup, are a "crave-worthy" delight. Despite occasional service hiccups, the "quaint and cozy" ambiance and happy hour offers make it a must-visit.

Chef Terry was incredible and her corn soup is something that I cannot get enough of it. I crave it and came all the way from town just to have it. Terry is a Gem!

The overall experience could have been much better. Seating was tight, food was okay and service was slow. Took too long to get dessert menu and zero refills on our drinks.

5 pm inside reservation on a Friday night Turned music up so loud at 5:45 that we could not even hear ourselves talk; was responsive to turn music down which was nice. Ordered charcuterie, board, ragoons , and cabbage rolls, all which were $5 from 5-6 pm The charcuterie board had nice meats and fruit, however the cheese quality was something I could get at Safeway. The ragoons were OK but a bit bland, even with the dipping sauce The cabbage rolls were good with the sauce as well, however you got only 3. The menu on their website is not the current menu being offered as of 3-16-25.

Boardroom is awesome, I just think they were off this night. It was a special pre fixe menu for $85 plus a $35 for a wining pair. Unfortunately the service was very poor, with us ending up having multiple of 50% of our dishes (out of 2 choices each course) wrong, waiting 20-30 minutes between dishes (while the table by us got them quicker, showed up after us, ordered after us and were served dishes before us), them having to ask us where we were at in our dinner, hot dishes coming out lukewarm/coldish, and having ordered two wine pairing but them not bringing out my partners till I reminded them twice and then only bringing him the two they didn’t bring previous and missing the next two. They did take his wine pairing off of their check after I asked if we could only pay for the two he got. They were very busy, and seemed like there was just miscommunication between the waiters during the switch or whatever may have happened. I do still recommend boardroom to people, as I’ve had experiences here previously that have been great, and they’re always very nice. It just was a rough night for them so I wanted to explain the review. Still try them out, their cocktails are tasty & their regular menu items great!

Chef Terry is lovely and her food delicious. Only disappointment was with server taking so long to get our entree order we missed out on the chicken (which was ordered out of existence, though we were seated right at opening). He also forgot my husband’s drink order. Mocktails were tasty!
