    Our Server JC was the ABSOLUTE BEST!! She was attentive to our needs without having to "Hover" over and around our table. She was quick to notice if we needed anything or was seeking her assistance. Her knowledge of the food and the menu were second to none and she had a great personality and was just AMAZINGLY friendly!!! She alone made my family's Thanksgiving meal the BEST Thanksgiving meal we have ever had, and that is NOT a lie!! The food was great, the serving area was clean and the traffic around the serving trays was light, and expected for a Thanksgiving buffet, but overall everything was AMAZING!!! Thank you to the staff at The Butcher Shop, but mainly Thank you to our friendly and pleasant server, JC!!!

    OUTstanding from start to finish! The decor and ambiance made me so darn happy. It was a golden, gaudy, Christmas explosion and I loved every second of it. Drinks were great and food was incredible. Our server Tommy (I think) was attentive and helpful. We got the Caesar salad, the house salad, the roasted chicken and the short rib. The Caesar salad and short rib were our favorites. We waited a long time to finally make it in but we’ll be back in the spring for a new round of decorations. It’s just so good.

    We cannot say enough good things about Harley Gray! Prices were terrific and very good quality! First, we sat at the bar for a drink and a beet hummus appetizer (so delicious) during happy hour. Nick, the bartender, was so welcoming and attentive. Then we sat at our table for their Live Main Lobster dinner (on Thursday nights) that was cooked to perfection, served with a side of rice. My partner also ordered a side of green beans that he loved. We were pleasantly full by the end of the meal so we didn't have room for dessert...next time! We plan to return often, especially to try their other specials!!
