Scratch features today's American cookery in an elegant setting. The cuisine is based on the premise of simple food done well and draws from American classics reflecting today's influences and bounty of ingredients. Choose from a tender moist braised short rib, fried chicken, or perhaps a selection from our fresh seafood and oyster bar.

For beverages Scratch has researched some of the finest vineyards and distilleries in the United States. We have a wide variety of wines and spirits to choose from in all price ranges. Some of our wine and spirits are highly allocated and will not always be available.

    Everything was okay but nothing was great. The restaurant was not very busy yet we were seated in a booth next to a large noisy party and we could barely hold a conversation at our table. We were halfway through our meal when that large party came in or we would have asked to move. But a little better planning and service would have been nice. We felt the price was too high for okay food and okay service

    One of our favorite places to go to in MTV for either just a little mid-week, after work, dinner or a bit more special occasion. The menu keeps changing, which we like, as it keeps things fresh and interesting. Drinks are always good as is the wine list. Last but not least is the great service.

    We went for a Sunday afternoon brunch. There were four of us and all enjoyed our meals. We were first given a booth but the bench seats were so low that we ladies had our chins on the table. We then were moved to a table which was just perfect. Three of us ordered lobster roll and were pleased with the food and the presentation. The fourth person ordered eggs Benedict and was also pleased with his meal. We had not seen each other in a while and were able to sit and enjoy the moment without feeling rushed. It was an overall very pleasant experience.

    Excellent service and staff. Food was delicious. We had the calamari, scratch pizza, prosciutto blue cheese flat bread, duck potstickers, sweet potato fries, ahi poke bites and several drinks. Definitely looking forward to going back.

    The food and service were great - nice varied menu. The restaurant was clean and nicely appointed. The only issue was it was so quiet - we were there on a Thursday and there were only 2 other tables. Obviously this not the restaurants fault but it does mean the atmosphere was a bit lacking!!
