    Incredible experience. I’ve never had butter as good as that, and I’m from the Midwest. Rodney was spectacular and great recommendations.

    First time visiting the study, and we will definitely be back! Our server Rodney made sure that we were comfortable with the menu and offered suggestions which we took every one of. Manny, the bartender also offered a warm welcome. His cocktail list was seasonal, fun, and well crafted. AJ the dessert cook brought us his pana cotta as a surprise. Chef sent out a fun amuse bouche. Great atmosphere, service, and food 10/10!

    The food in the service are perfect!! I really enjoyed the two times I’ve been. I didn’t love the piano in the background. But that’s just a personal preference, but I definitely can’t wait to go back again.

    We had an amazing dining experience at The Study. Our waiter, Rodney, was warm and welcoming. He had impeccable food and cocktail recommendations, and was clearly knowledgeable and excited about the menu. The food was intriguing and engaging, bursting with flavor. Chef Maddie and intern AJ were able to come to our table to talk about the dishes. Manny the mixologist crafted unique cocktails to go with our food, and Derek the pianist created a fun atmosphere. We can't wait to come back!

    What a lovely spot for dinner! Our waiter (I think his name was Rodney) was very attentive and knowledgeable of the menu options. All of his suggestions were absolutely delicious. There was a pianist performing but it was still quiet enough to hold a conversation. Will definitely come back!
