You can’t beat the service! The drink cart was so much fun. The balsamic onions and mushrooms were my favorite thing we ate! We did feel our steak could have been better seasoned however was still good. Skip the calamari. They made us a fun mini dessert in honor of our honeymoon which was a sweet surprise.

We had dinner last night and it was such a wonderful experience from start to finish. Our waiter went above and beyond to make everything perfect. The food was incredible and we will definitely be back next time we visit.

Our evening at L.G. Smith’s started off really well. We called ahead to say we’d be a bit late, and the staff was very understanding. The concept of a mobile cocktail bar brought to your table was fun and unique — the drinks were both tasty and well presented. Unfortunately, the experience was soured at the end. When it came time to pay, our server was visibly annoyed because we wanted to pay with different cards. His attitude was rude and completely unnecessary, especially after such a nice start to the evening. It left a bad taste and definitely affected how we felt walking out. It’s a shame, because the food and drinks were genuinely great. But service matters — and in this case, it brought down the whole experience.

It was somewhere between “bad” and “fine”. Definitely not worth the price.

Had to send steak back undercooked, then overcooked. Also given someone else’s side dish. The food was barely warm. We. We were told they had an extra large party. I didn’t think that was going to interfere with our dinner, but I was wrong. The waiter was nice. It was my husband’s birthday and we were very disappointed especially when no one acknowledged our disappointment.

The food was pretty good. The service was subpar at best. He was not friendly and extremely attentive. You can tell he just wanted to go home.

We arrived a little early and was seated almost immediately. The wait staff from the hostess to the liquor concierge was amazing. The wait staff checked on us regularly to confirm everything was well and if there was anything we needed. My friend absolutely loved her LG Salmon Dish and I indulged in a delicious 10oz Black Angus Rib Eye. Both of us with loaded potatoes. We sipped on great drinks, enjoyed the ambiance with a DJ and music and could still chat without feeling the music drowned out our conversation. Overall an amazing place to dine, I will return next time I am on the one happy island.

From start to finish, the night was excellent. We started off with/ a cocktail at the lobby bar, impressive but noisy. After the cocktail, we went into L G Smith’s and were immediately greeted, then sat at our table. Francisco was our server w/ Alex assisting. They were very attentive, friendly, and ready to answer any question we had. My wife had the Premium Filet and I had the 14oz. NY Striploin w/ sides.The cocktails were spit on. For dessert, we shared the warm apple crumble w/ vanilla ice cream and I also had a tasty dark Espresso martini. It was an overall excellent experience and a lot of credit has to go to Francisco! TY L.G. Smith for a great time.

Went here because I saw all the rave reviews, but everything I ate was very underwhelming and very overpriced for what it was.
