Our Guestbook
“ We had a wonderful experience celebrating our daughter's 40th birthday. Brett was such a warm, engaging and knowledgable server. He started us out with some bubbles to start our evening. We shared appetizers and entrees and everything was so tasty and elegantly presented. The halibut was moist and flaky and served on a squash which was a delicious addition. The pork belly was amazing served with a black rice. The octopus was tender and was beyond my expectation. We all agreed that the caprese heirloom tomato salad with micro basil leaves and buratta was the best we all have ever had. Shrimp wantons also were amazing. Steak tartare was not shared but my husband said it too was great. Foie Gras was beautifully presented and delicious. All of us agreed that we should extend our compliments to the Chef...Bravo! ”
“ We came here with a large party to celebrate a birthday and the service, food, and drinks were all wonderful. The atmosphere was pleasant and not too loud. I got the mushroom risotto and my partner got the salmon - both delicious. What we absolutely loved though was the roasted squash side! Others at our table got the flat iron steak and spicy lobster spaghetti, which they also enjoyed. Our server was wonderful and attentive for 10 people. I'd go back! ”
“ Cocktails are absolutely impeccable and the service is even better. Thank you Jake for being patient and helpful with the decisions! What an absolute gem of a bartender and SUCH A COOL SPOT! ”
“ My husband and I celebrated our 5th year anniversary together here. The food was exceptional (I had the lobster linguine) and the service was fantastic. Our server was super friendly and knowledgeable. We are from England living here for business currently and the staff made us feel so welcomed! Not to mention the cozy atmosphere with the warm lighting and rustic features. You guys really made that day feel special for us, thank you x ”
“ We celebrated our 51st anniversary here with family style dining. Wow! Everything was amazing and the service was exceptional! ”
“ My partner and I came here for Valentine's Day and we had a great experience trying various dishes and enjoying our space in a fancy setting. We thought most of the good was great and would recommend anyone coming here to have a great time! Having strawberry and fennel made it an interesting combination with the foie gras and they worked together very well, so we thoroughly enjoyed the toast. The grilled octopus was also pretty solid, and the kalamansi vinaigrette worked well in providing an additional layer of flavor. The spicy lobster spaghetti had very good textural consistency with the chili tomato dauce and bottarga, with the latter providing a different kind of saltiness as it is fish roe. We also enjoyed eating the dark chocolate cremeux tart and the budino. They had an adequate amount of sweetness in different ways. I thought the salmon was nice as well, and the coconut-lime beurre blanc provided a unique type flavor, albeit there was a bit too much of it. The baby beets had a good amount of orange and radish, and I personally wished there was more beets included. Finally, we were confused about the baklava tart because we thought it tasted like a harder version of sweet potato pie, and the only thing that made it baklava was the pistachio pieces on the top. Side note, the valet guy was working very hard on that day despite all the snow, trying to fetch every customer's car with no complaints. We waited for a bit longer in the cold but that was okay because the valet guy was clearly working very hard. I would love the restaurant to consider additional staffing so that customers don't need to wait too long for their cars, and so that the valet guy won't feel like he has to do everything. ”
“ Came here and ended up getting food from the restaurant downstairs. Both of them are part of the same kitchen. The Parlour Burger was really good. Two smashed patties! The old fashioned was worth it also! Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures before eating everything. ”
“ A very clean, organized, and spacious restaurant. Very friendly staff, great music & relaxing. Prompt service, great drinks & good food. ”
