    This was our second time at the refinery. I ordered the carrots off the small plates menu and the lobster pyramids for my main. The food was amazing, as expected. The overall vibe of this place is excellent. If you can get a reservation, do it. You won’t be disappointed.

    Great food. Wonderful unique selections prepared like no one else in the area does. 5 stars for the food. Good service great server. But they lose a star for very slow drink delivery. Never even got a 2nd beverage. Happens every-time we are there. They have a serious bar service issue. Only 4 stars for service. Now the bigger issue. Very small place so they cram in as many tables as possible including one an arms length away from the door to get to the patio tables. Guess who got that crappy table. Had to constantly move to let people in and out. Got up to close the door multiple times as both staff and customers would leave it open and let in the hot humid outside air which would encompass the table. We picked in door seating for a reason!!! Very disappointing experience. The patio is seasonable so in the winter use the table. When the patio is open, the table needs to go into storage. One star for not recognizing this but instead trying to cram in as many customers as possible. We will return due to the great food and suggest others go, but when making the reservation always ask to not be seated at the table by the door to the patio or you will be miserable. We already have another reservation and have made the special seating request.

    An Outstanding culinary experience. The staff are attentive but not intrusive. The food is exceptional. We had the opportunity to meet the chef which topped off the whole experience. Our only concern is the noise level.

    The 3 month wait was definitely worth it! Our waitress, Faith, was exemplary! She enthusiastically explained the menu sharing her favorites and answered any questions with a great attitude. She was the best! We shared that we couldn’t get a reservation on our actual anniversary and she came over with 2 glasses of prosecco! Wonderful meal, beautiful restaurant, exceptional waitress. Can’t ask for more out of a meal!

    All of the food was absolutely excellent. I wish the water was filtered a little better. I was able to taste the chlorine. Loved the atmosphere and the vibe of of this restaurant. I will definitely be going back.

    Really delicious food and a beautiful modern environment. A little crammed and loud in the main dining room. It’s a little ridiculous how far in advance you have to make reservations. There were many open tables around us. Also strange that you can’t order something to take home. We wanted to bring a pizza home for our mom and were told we couldn’t. Strange.
