   After we were seated we waited ten minutes and had to ask someone who our waiter was. Even after we finally got a waiter we had to ask every time we needed a refill. He did not take the initiative to do anything without being asked. The food was okay but nothing special. Overall I will not be going back.

   We held our office Christmas party here for the 4th consecutive year and we will keep coming back for years to come. Service was outstanding. Everyone went above and beyond to make our experience top notch. The food was great. The appetizers were scrumptious!! We absolutely love this place. Thank you!!!

   We had heard great things about the Federal American grill and walked away disappointed. The meal was to celebrate our sons birthday which they forgot and after having a disappointing meal we decided just to get the check and go home without reminding them on the celebration. The salmon was farm raised - which I thought a restaurant of this level would have had wild or "sustainability farm raised". Towards the end of our meal a couple of staff were making noise beside our table assembling all of the silverware - they could have chose a place further away so that the noise wouldn't have been an issue.

   We went for Thanksgiving dinner. They had a pre-fix menu that had a choice for a traditional Thanksgiving plate. It included everything that we would have had at home in the past. Food was good and served promptly. The wait staff was friendly and professional. They are known for their excellent old fashioned cocktails so we had one before dinner and it was delicious. We’ll be back.

   The food and service was great but the noise level was loud. It was hard to enjoy the meal.

   Food was ok, they ONLY had a Thanksgiving menu, and that fact was not advertised, and for $65 a pop too much money for what it was. Service was good, atmosphere was good, food just ok.

   Hi Dennis, thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the Thanksgiving menu didn’t meet your expectations and that the pricing felt too high for the experience. We appreciate your comments about the service and atmosphere, and we’ll make sure to be clearer in our communication about menu options in the future. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back again soon for a better experience.

    Highly recommend the Red Snapper, it was fantastic. Moscato was wonderful and Carrot cake was perhaps best we ever had, word to wise it was huge.
