   Theyve got a wonderful cocktail selection, the Ahi Tuna with mole was amazing. Tagliatelle with Bolognese rivals some of the better Italian restaurants I've been to and the bruleed chocolate mousse was a great way to finish it off. They're very prompt with their reservations and it's appreciated. If you're reservations are for 7:15 they'll seat you right at 7:15 not 5 minutes early or late. Perfect place to enjoy a nice bite if you're staying on site.

   We showed up at about 9:05 for a 9:15 reservation. We were seated immediately. Waitress showed up at 9:15 and took our order. A cocktail, a coke, an app and two entrees. We got water and plates and immediately got the app 3 minutes after ordering. Finshed that and entrees dropped on table at 9:22. 7 minutes after ordering. What!? So, I cancelled the cocktail. At 9:28 the waitress shows up with the coke and drink and I said we didn't want them since we were just about done with the entrees. She said they were on the house. We got the bill and were in our car at 9:38. From ordering to leaving, 23 minutes. I've had longer meals at fast food places and didn't drop $110. The food was good but the experience was absolute crap. IF we ever go back, we'll order one course at a time, AFTER getting drinks. Ridiculous.

   The waitress and the hostesses were the nicest ever. The wine was fine. The place was clean. The only thing I didn’t like was the food! I ordered a vegetarian Farro and mushroom dish, it was a dreadful concoction of pulverized mushrooms piled on top of Farro. Really awful. It cost $25. Take it off the menu immediately! 🙏

   Very good service and food but the brewed coffee tastes like hot water. Put some coffee in it, or buy better beans, please! Even so, we’ll return (but have coffee at home.)

   Nicely decorated beautiful restaurant, inside and outside seating areas and the bar. Each area has a different vibe. Service was excellent from the hostess to the servers. Food was decent overall but overpriced. Sweet potato gratin was undercooked and no flavor. Potato leek soup lacked flavor too. Appetizers were good. Tried the scallop, roasted cauliflower and brussel sprouts. Tomahawk needs improvement. Cheesecake was better than the chocolate cake. Overall I like the ambiance but I would come back for drinks and appetizers not dinner.

   This was my first time here and I give 10/10 for first impressions. The location is beautiful, the ambience was perfect, and the food was so yummy. I came for brunch and I love that they offer a pitcher for mimosas. The service was on point. As soon as we sat down we were greeted and well looked after the whole time and were never rushed. The food was spectacular. The short rib hash was so delicious I couldn’t get over it. Pastrami Benedict was tasty and so was the crab salad. I cannot wait to come back!

    My husband and I love this place and have made it our Sunday brunch spot. The service is ALWAYS incredible and the mimosa's are the best in town. We love the deviled eggs, hummus and chopped salad. Francisco served us on our last visit and took EXCELLENT care of us! Needless to say we'll be back soon!

    Started coming here during COVID due to the great outdoor patio, great service, and very tasty food and cocktails. Became my go-to day restaurant and I have brought many people here over the past two years, but the past 3 visits I've noticed that the service is not as good...when I have actually seen the server. And the food quality definitely has taken a turn for the worse. Come here for drinks and the atmosphere, but maybe skip the food. Bummer to say that I am now searching for my new go to.

    They said they were dog friendly! NOT!!! It was stated they were dog friendly so we brought our very friendly 9 year old chocolate lab and ordered her a hamburger off the children’s menu. When tried to give it to her to eat the most HORRIBLE manager named STEVEN, promptly came up to us and told us that if we gave her just one more bite he would kick us out immediately, he basically told us off almost yelling!! He also said “I knew this was for your dog!!!” As if we were trying to get away with a crime. He was horribly and completely unprofessional. We were immensely embarrassed. We were there to celebrate our anniversary. No one told us we couldn’t feed her, so how would we know? It was the rudest experience we have ever had and we have eaten all over the world. The food was great! The server, Frankie was phenomenal!! He was so nice and professional. But if you bring your furry family member this is not the place!!!! NOT DOG FRIENDLY!

    A good mix of innovative and less adventurous dishes. I was particularly impressed with the desserts and the cocktails. You could make a meal of the excellent selection of appetizers/small plates. The wines and cheeses are pedestrian, but the stuffed whole branzino made with north African spices was impeccably prepared. Also, the service was extremely impressive. Friendly, attentive, and unobtrusive. The garden atmosphere is spacious, casual, and relaxing.

    I always enjoy an evening at this restaurant. The service and food is always first rate. My one complaint is I find the menu a little tired. Same food for the last few years and not a lot of variety. I wish their burger could be also a turkey one or offer a vegetarian one. The only fish is Ahi. Not much choice. Not real good pastas, and there is a delicious half chicken, but now other real chicken dishes. And it has been the same for a couple of years now. Their prices are robust and when I suggested this place for dinner, some of my friends said the menu was boring. Also, get rid of the picnic tables outside. They tried to seat us there and we refused. Again, for the price? 6 of us did not need to squeeze into these seats with no backs. Shame on them. Get a few more nice tables. I noticed one stayed vacant all night and the place was croweded.

    The only disappointment was the check was split in half, but the tip amount recommendation was not. So my friend and I left double the tip amount. This is very misleading. Either no tip recommendation should be written or you should have the tip amount adjusted for the split. Thank you for taking this into consideration. Sincerely, Beth Kautzky

    The food and drink were excellent. We had some cocktails and the biscuits which were delicious. We shared the kale salad and carnitas - all good. Service at the table was also good. My only critique is that the host was strangely rigid about our reservation. We were 15 minutes early and at 5:30 pm there were many tables available yet she wouldn’t seat us. Instead we had to wait at the bar. It would have been much more comfortable and convenient to sit at a table even if we couldn’t be served right away. A minor annoyance during an otherwise great night.

    It was really nice but I’m disappointed with the breakfast buffet they had. It was way too little choices. Egg( scrambled and hard boiled) , sausage, potatoes, bacon, oatmeal, salsa, bread, cereal. I think that’s all. Although they gave flower to my mom which was really nice.

    We had a great experience. We’re staying at the Garland so it was also easy & convenient. We ordered the Hamachi Crudo, prosciutto flatbread, deviled eggs, & short rib for main course. We probably could’ve done without the short rib because it was a lot for just my wife and I. Our daughter ordered the Mac & cheese. It was all very tasty. The short rib just needed a touch of salt which the server was very accommodating to procure for us. All in all, a wonderful experience sitting outside in the great weather!

    Food quality is ok. My issue is with the front staff. ATTITUDE!! First time I was there a few weeks ago without a reservation. The place was half empty, and they made us wait for 20 minutes for a table, Huh? It didn't fill up and the wait staff was not busy Yesterday with reservations, we showed up 6 minutes early. Same attitude. "You will have to wait for 6 minutes" Tables again half empty, I even requested a specific table, and was given that table after waiting. There are better places with a lot less issues, won't bother going back to be ignored.
