As ALWAYS, our server, JO, provided yet another OUTSTANDING dining experience. She was attentive, knowledgeable, and personable. The food was equally incredible; the revamped lavender crème brûlée is a game-changer. 🤩 The moment that solidified my fondness for this place is when my sister (the other guest dining with me) noticed the attentiveness and teamwork practiced amongst the staff both FOH and BOH. In addition to our server and support staff, Deja (the GM) also visited our table, offering to assist us with anything we needed. Nowadays, with the overabundance of “cash grabs” in the city that lack substance and fail to grasp the fundamentals of hospitality, the top-notch dining experience provided at Cooks and Soldiers is so refreshing. Please keep up the great work!!! 👏🏾

My close friends and I have had an annual holiday dinner at Iberian Pig for the last 3 or so years. It’s an accidental tradition that we’ve decided to do on purpose. The staff always makes the experience even more memorable with quality service and a fabulous menu. Our server, Ryder, was phenomenal. Already looking forward to Year 4!

All of the tapas we ordered was excellent!!! The chef’s charcuterie board- phenomenal. We had both cold octopus salad & grilled octopus over corn puree!!!! Both were outstanding! The steak with mushroom foam!!! I will dream about this dish. Tuna tartare & squash soup are so so yummy! Our server, Christina, so sweet & fantastic! Drinks were great. I gave a lower score on ambience due to the fact their HVAC as malfunctioning & it was cold in the restaurant. Definitely returning for more!!!
