- SSyamphoneLas Vegas •2 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoI was told that all the entrées were 500 calories or less, so I decided to go with the steak and lobster, while my girlfriend chose the lamb loin. Wow—everything was absolutely delicious! The drinks were amazing too. I highly recommend this place for a date night or a dinner with friends and family.More infoSeasons 52 - San Diego - UTCPrice: Expensive• American• University City/Golden Triangle•4.8

We really appreciated her service! All of the staff who recognize us go out of their way to come and say Hi. Kyle, RJ, Brandon, Lauren, Meg, they always welcome us with a smile and great service.More infoGravity Heights Sorrento ValleyPrice: Moderate• American• Sorrento Mesa•4.6

- JJacquelineSan Francisco Bay Area •4 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoDalton was Fantastic!! Top tier tea service!! Everything was exquisite and beautifully presented, thoroughly explained, and happily enjoyed. We weren’t made to feel rushed which is so important when enjoying tea with a friend. The manager Jenna checked on our table and cheerfully asked for our feedback. We were incredibly impressed with their desire to improve what is already a phenomenal experience. My only recommendation to handicap patrons is that the parking is further down and the entrance without stairs is on the side. They were very accommodating and allowed us in 3 minutes before opening so we wouldn’t have to stand in the cold wind with our canes. Definitely empathetic people that prioritize customer service. I’m pretty sure we just found our new favorite neighborhood restaurant!!!!More infoCalifornia EnglishPrice: Expensive• American• Sorrento Mesa•4.6
