    Although our meal was heavily compensated the overall experience was not good. Many issues with the food, that prompted table visits by the restaurant manager and Mrs. Calamos. Overall a bad experience and won't be going back.

    We went to City Gate for their Prix Fixe Valentine's Day dinner and they did not disappoint!! The food was terrific; atmosphere was great and I could write 3 chapters about Kimela, our waitress. Friendly, attentive(!!), gave us good suggestions...she was just a pleasure. We've been to City Gate many, many times over the years and the waitstaff has, with just one exception, been wonderful. Don't know if we can request her section the next time we go, but it'll be worth the try.

    My wife and I tried this excellent restaurant for the first time Feb 15th. They had their regular menu and an expertly selected prix fix menu for Valentines weekend. It was def a great value with 3 choices for each setting, appetizer, soup or salad, entree and dessert. We will now have to come back to try the regular menu as there were so many steak and seafood choices. The waitress said they have a special menu every Friday to try as well. Really delicious dinner. We had their regular menu filets with lobster, whipped potatoes, asparagus, bacon Brussels sprouts and choc angel food cake.

    Food and prices were great. I asked for a well done steak that was still tender and they said they couldn’t do it. That was a disappointment, but I got the chicken and instead and it was good.
