    We made reservations at Rats for Christmas Eve over a month ago with the understanding that it would be their dinner menu as it was advertised on their website as “Menu for the night includes our full menu”. We were surprised that the menu was actually their lunch menu so we ended up trying to order different things to make it our “dinner.” The food was good, nothing special, but it would have been nice to know beforehand. If I knew it was only going to be the lunch menu, we would have dined somewhere else to celebrate Christmas Eve.

    Lovely place and friendly service. Food a bit spicy! Apps and desserts were amazing. Great place to go for a "nice" meal that isn't crazy $$ (though not inexpensive). Great menu items and fun cocktails though we didn't try any. Plenty of parking and takes reservations so very convenient.

    It was really great. It was our first Thanksgiving at a restaurant, and the food was so good, our server (I think her name was Kylie) was so nice, and we all were happy.
