    Beautiful decorated for the Christmas season. Sat in the enclosed outer area. Service was excellent. Matt, our waiter was very attentive The sushi rolls (Smokey Mountain and Black Widow) were colorful and very tasty. The entrees, the Scallop + Shrimp combo plus the Branzzino over the Mushroom Risotto with a Lemon Butter sauce was wonderful. The scallops were perfectly cooked , juicy and reasonably sized. The Branzzino was nicely seasoned and paired well with the Mushroom risotto. The Christmas cocktails were decadent - if you like chocolate and had a sweet tooth, you’d love them. Over, a great experience at Rooney’s

    Had another wonderful meal, cocktails and date night l. Loved the holiday decor and for the first time sat in the covered patio area-we usually reserve a bar high top. Our waiter was attentive, friendly and paced our meal as requested so we were not finishing appetizers when our entrées arrived. We started with our favorite appetizers- crispy bbq ribs and the bread with ricotta. Ribs needed a bit more sauce but were excellent. My husband tried the Bolognese (he usually gets short ribs) which is offered in two sizes. Delicious but we expected the larger portion to be big enough for leftovers but portion was just enough for him. Scraped the plate. I had my usual, the organic chicken. Crisp and juicy as always. Overall a great meal and experience. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    On a busy, busy night, Christmas Eve, we didn’t feel rushed for a second, Dalton was terrific, handled our weird questions with ease and grace, she was a lively and lovely part of our time at Brothers. If we weren’t in the Christmas spirit, it wouldn’t have been for long. The bar, restaurant and outdoor space are decorated for the holidays, not an inch or dollar was spared, absolutely spectacular, tasteful and joyous decorations everywhere. Magnificent, really. We inhaled oysters, so fresh, perfectly shucked, could have eaten another dozen (and then some), delicious wines and cocktails, then three delish entrees including special. No room for dessert. A perfect night, will be back. And back again, thank you!
