    I’ve been to 48 Donley 3 times for lunch and once for dinner and the food has been consistent in presentation and delish! Much better than Sargasso had been in last few years.

    I had the Grouoer and it was delicious. I would get this again. The service was outstanding and we had a party of 8. My only complaint was that it was a bit chilly. We asked if it could be turned up and they said unfortunately it was unable to as it was locked.

    Went to the Riverview Rooftop Bar for the first time with another couple before going downstairs for our dinner reservation - cool selfie wall for fun pics & specialty cocktails were delish! Also learned through our waiter, Lucas, about Wednesday night wine flights with appetizer special! My husband & I enjoyed the fried brussel sprouts app - definitely shareable! But the Baked salmon with fennel risotto was the winner entree!

    A nice, slow paced, elegant dinner. We enjoyed our cocktails and the food was delicious. We shared the calamari. I had the seabass and my husband enjoyed the filet, though thought the price point was a bit elevated. We did not partake in dessert as we had other plans. Overall, we had a very pleasant experience and will return.

    10/10 best restaurant in Morgantown! Excellent service and the food was outstanding! A hidden gem! We are from Philadelphia and this place was comparable to a Philly top notch restaurant. Every bite was incredible. The staff is professional and makes the experience a wonderful! This is our new go too!
