    This restaurant is great for special occasions, such as a birthday. For lunch, we shared fried calamari. I had the French onion burger and a side salad. (Australian wagyu patty, french onion jam, crispy onion straws, havarti & gruyere, roasted garlic aïoli, toasted onion roll). Very tasty. Husband has a shrimp po boy sandwich with a side salad. For dessert, we had yummy chocolate gelato. Our server, Ryan, was very attentive. The restaurant was fully staffed, so our food came out at a good pace.

    Outstanding seafood tower, Delmonico steak, Veal Chop and King crab legs and side dishes. The “Mica” cab delicious. Splendid dinner.

    An absolute perfect experience from start to finish. We were celebrating an anniversary. There was a card on the table for us upon arrival and complimentary sparkling wine with dessert. We shared the tomahawk with the baked spinach and a massive baked potato. I’m glad we only ordered one. For dessert we had the carrot cake(scrumptious) and the salted caramel chocolate chip gelato with an espresso pour over (affogato). Our server Peter was magnificent. He made our special evening even more so. We will chose 22 over and over again for our future occasions and ask for Peter. Thanks for a fantastic time!

    The food was absolutely delicious. My husband and I shared the Waldorf salad. My husband said the salmon was the best he’s ever had. I savored every bite of the A5 Japanese Wagyu, absolutely scrumptious. The cocktails and wine were amazing.

    Great restaurant, pretty expensive but in a very nice location. The parking situation is awful so be prepared to walk. The food while very tasty was on the cool side. But a fabulous menu with all kinds of unique dishes. This is a great place for an anniversary or celebration where money is not an issue. I will go back again for sure.

    The $22 Lunch Special was awesome! We regularly dine there, but this was a “great deal treat”! Had the mini-Lobster Roll and Salad.
