    It was a warm welcome by our server who made sure to follow through on everything. I was a vegan and our server suggested that the chef put something together for me. I could tell that our server wanted to make sure our dining experience was a pleasure. She also offered great pairings for both meals. The drinks from the bar were perfect and well balanced. I felt at ease and relaxed during the entire meal.

    I have been to Majestic many times and thoroughly enjoy it. During our last visit, we have a tasting menu, which consisted of four small courses. This was absolutely delicious and allowed us to try smaller portions of dishes we'd not otherwise get a chance to sample. My favorite is the dates stuffed with goat cheese and the Zucchini Pesto with Fusilli. The restaurant also has a great assortment of cocktails, wine, beer and other spirits. The ambiance is pleasant and I love the restaurant's rich history. Service was a little slow, but I appreciate the fact that the restaurant is not in a hurry to turn tables.
