    Their menu online IS NOT their menu they are serving at the restaurant so do not make the decision to dine here based on the menu. It tool a while for them to seat us so we decided to order cocktails feom the bar while we waited. Our drinks took too long to come out and they refused to seat us and bring it drinks to our table when we were told our table was ready. We did not have the correct# place setting on the table for our group, we had to ask for a straw 3 times and when it came out, it was handed over with bare hands and not wrapped in a napkin. Very disappointed in the service that was provided from the hostess stand to the manager and servers. Will not be coming back after being a patron for over 20 decades. Not as it used to be.

    The food was very good for the most part (scallops, dessert were excellent, chopped salad was underwhelming). Service was excellent as was the ambiance. Regarding the latter, I was upstairs where it was much quieter. Downstairs by the bar was very loud so be sure to specify what kind of experience you are looking for when you make your reservation.

    Fantastic food and excellent service. Pretty empty on a Wednesday night, but dining room has very high ceiling and feels open regardless. Tried their Wednesday special, porchetta—amazing. The whole branzino and scallops were excellently prepared also.

    Had a 7pm reservation. Arrived at 6:55. Was told table would be ready soon but we could have a drink at the bar. 7:20 still not seated. However multiple groups came in & were seated immediately. Finally at 7:25 we’re told table ready (probably because we weren’t ordering a 2nd drink) Waiter was ok but not too attentive. Seemed to be forgetful at times. My son had a 7:30 seating (different waitress) & was done before us. Meal was ok but a little pricey. P.S. steak knife wouldn’t even cut through prime rib.

    I recently moved to the neighborhood and wanted to start trying local restaurants - I am mad at myself for not trying Trummer's sooner. The food is incredible, everyone that works there is so nice and the ambiance is on point. They have a fantastic wine selection and a cute bar area I plan to check out in the future. I cannot wait to go back.

    The experience starts with the hostess who greated us with a smile. Our waiter was phenomenal he had detailed information about the food and made wine selection a breeze. The food selection was tastefull. The large dining g hall has ambiance but with a large part in the room is a tad noisy for a quite conversation between two.

    Took 30 minutes for appetizers to arrive and food was ok. My family said chicken was a little salty and mahi mahi bland. I had scallops which I thought was good. Our server, Patrick was great. Attentive but not too intrusive. He acknowledged the tardiness of our meal and gave a little extra. The desserts were outstanding! I think it’s one of the best restaurants for dessert and I eat dessert 99% of the time I dine out! I would definitely recommend the strawberry beignets.

    A group of friends who had had to postpone meeting for Christmas and a birthday, enjoyed lunch, conversation, opening gifts and the wonderful food and excellent service at Trummers. We were warmly received and given a beautiful table. We had A LOT to catch up on, and were there for 3 hours, but service was never rushed. JR was a great server, who never had to be asked for a refill on water or tea. The chestnut soup was outstanding! At the end of the meal, a lovely surprise birthday plate and candle were presented. We all agreed that we will be back for another wonderful lunch in the future. Thanks so much for a great afternoon!

    We hadn’t returned to Trummer’s since a lackluster Thanksgiving meal a few years ago. Decided to give it another try and are glad we did. The 3-course lunch from a special Valentine’s Day menu was delicious and service was impeccable. Loved the cocktail and wine we chose. Unhurried -a wonderful way to celebrate!

    I usually have a fantastic time at Trummers. I asked our waiter for some modifications (that I’ve asked for before, and he truly seemed annoyed) My food was burnt legitimately, and I had to ask the kitchen to redo it. Which honestly I have never done but it felt like they were upset about the changes I asked for, and made a careless/spiteful meal. My partners food was ok, she got fish but it had no salt, we asked for a pinch of salt but it never came. Almost 200 dollars for not the best experience. I did still leave a proper tip and hopefully next time is better.

    We had a lovely dinner with friends who had driven from Katona, NY. We hadn’t seen them for two years. Food very good. Waiter excellent. I did not see “market price” on the Tomahawk beef. Could not believe that they could charge $135.00 for one entree. We have lived world wide… we have had superb food in countries most haven’t heard of. We love to cook. We love good food. We have paid market price for crab cakes. I paid $46.00 for an entire tenderloin of beef for Xmas at Costco. We four felt like fools… we could not believe this charge. We called the restaurant when we got home to ask if this was a mistake. They were closed. I do not know what “market” that beef came from but it wasn’t even edible. I took it home and will boil some flavor into it. Shame. We liked Trummer’s, but we will share this shocker. Sincerely, Robert Cablish-Langworthy
