    The Boardroom and the SpeakEasy both always provide great drinks, food and attentive service. It is our favorite neighborhood restaurant! The piano player was wonderful. He took requests and made our Father's Day meal more special. All in all, a wonderful dining experience.

    Shockingly lovely experience. Restaurant is located in a strip mall and - from the outside - looks slightly disreputable. But the inside is really a treat - exactly what the word 'boardroom' evokes. The service was spectacular (timely, efficient, great and delivered with style) and the food was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend this 'hidden gem' ;).

    Always blown away at the first class experience this restaurant offers being in a small strip mall. Walk through the door and you're in 1950's New York. Great foot. Great staff.

    A unique and immensely satisfying dining experience where the ambiance is truly reflective of a bygone, but not forgotten, period. The culinary greatness of this restaurant makings dining in this place invigorating and gastronomically a delight. The food is beautifully prepared and tantalizing, a marvelous experience for any patron. The service is attentive but not overwhelming. This is a rare treat for any diner, and for the price, a bargain.

    We love coming here! The food is always good and we appreciate the menu is always changing. They also made my husbands birthday so special by having a little sign on the table!

    Unexpected restaurant, it’s beautifully decorated inside, that you forget that you are in a small shopping center. Wow! The owner did a fantastic job transforming this small place into something special. The food was very well cooked, delicious, no over the top hype or fan fare. This is a genuinely good food, with good service, and the drinks were a plus. The manner in which everything is put together provides a welcoming and memorable experience. I highly recommended this place, and would like to thank them for the a wonderful evening. We will be back here again.
