    Food was average, service was average (like “i don’t care” attitude to serving). Small plates, boring place too

    The service, food and restaurant was very disappointing. I have eaten here many years ago and it was very good, but not today.

    Historical restaurant in a Hyatt Hotel with lots of pictures of its past glory. Food was basic, we had steak and hamburger, but very well prepared. The service was excellent. Our server was very enthusiastic. There was a cozy looking bar and lounge music on Friday nights.. So a nice, low key neighborhood go to.

    They were completely empty. The food was terrible. The service was lovely. I think next holiday they shouldn’t be opener they should have a menu to choose food from. Only reason we switched is so we didn’t have to pay for our daughter’s meal but she saw the turkey options and wouldn’t try any of the couple items. Not going to return

    I was so excited for this historic dining experience. I thought it would be amazing traditional service and exquisite food. Imagine my surprise to learn that napkins were at a “premium” and had to ask for one and then they took the fork from my salad plate and placed it on the bread plate for me to use again with my entree. Gasp. I was never offered a second glass of wine and while the Cod was fine, nothing worth writing home about. I mentioned bread and was told there was none (so why the bread plate!). I left in a record 39 minute dining experienced a bit sad, disappointed and somewhat confused. Hoping it was a bad night and will not be a habit of disappointment.

    The food was excellent. The space was beautiful. The live music on Friday was excellent. We chose the corner table away from people to be able to listen to each other but between love sets the music they played was too loud and we had to repeatedly ask them to turn it down maybe 4x. Then they didn’t ask us if we wanted dessert and just handed us the check saying “do you want another drink?” We took their cue and departed. BUT our staff said the it was the waiters second night so it’s fine. Worth returning…

    This place is mostly empty. The food was fine. The service was poor. It took forever to get our drinks and our check. The waitress hardly ever checked back.
