What a great place to gather with friends to celebrate a special occasion. This restaurant is quite unique & warm & has an old-world charm. It was like stepping into the past, even before my time. I can only imagine what it must be like on a Thurs or Fri when they have live music. The meal & service were exceptional. I found the menu options to be well tailored & balanced... something for everyone. I would describe The Gatsby as a well hidden jewel.

Our experience was amazing from the time we walked in to the time we left. They really do value the customer, I asked one gentleman where the washroom was and he escorted me all the way there. Our waitress, did not catch her name unfortunately, was outstanding! She introduced us to a new wine, and was very knowledgeable about the wine! They even offered my partner and I a complimentary dessert for our anniversary! Will definitely be returning!
