    Breakfast with Santa- we had a reservation and were seated immediately. Server was right there even though the place was crammed with families and kids all over. food was served in a reasonable time and fashion. Food was excellent! Not hard to poach an egg but at some places it appears to be impossible- Here they have it down. Santa was wonderful- great look and very accomodating to children who were weary of him- kept his distance but engaged.

    This is our second time to Downtown Grill. Took my wife for her birthday. From the moment you are greeted by staff to the time you are seated you can tell the staff has pride in this establishment. The drinks, and they have non-alcoholic THC drinks as options were great. We ordered the octopus salad and shrimp arabiata for appetizers and they were wonderful. For dinner we had the filet and the picanha with sides of grilled carrots and brussel sprouts. I have never had the picanha, I had the filet last time, and I have to say you cannot go wrong with either. For desert we had the creme brûlée and the apple fritter and both were the perfect ending. We then went and had a couple of drinks at the bar where the bartenders are super friendly and knowledgeable about their craft and mad us some great drinks while I enjoyed the company of my wife. The pricing for the restaurant is where it should be considering the staff excellence (big shout out to Raffi, hope I spelled it right, as he was so attentive to us all night) and what you would expect from a restaurant of this caliber. We will be back soon, I've already requested it for my birthday! Thank you everyone at Downtown Grill for making our night special and wonderful start to my wife's birthday.

    Food and service were great. The restaurant was pretty loud, but didn’t ruin our night. Our party had the tuna tower, bread service and oysters for an appetizer. Entrees included Steak Frites, Salmon, and Shrimp Pasta Primavera. Everything we ate was so good! Definitely look forward to going back.
