    Excellent quality food as always. Would have been more special if there was a holiday menu/course. Service was a bit slow at the start but caught up. Was seated in the back room which was not as nicely decorated. Needed more attention to the decor if seating people in the back room. Felt like we were shoved to the back. Cocktails are excellent but needed more flare for the holidays.

    Maison Cheryl is one of our favorite restaurants and we just popped in for an early bite at the bar and it knocked it out of the park as always :-)  The winter salad with squash and pecans and goat cheese is my new favorite. Hopefully they put it on the regular menu! And had the truffle burger, which I had a craving for and why we went there. :-)  Trowley on an amazing Wagyu burger, nothing more needs to be said. Outstanding! And of course, truffle fries to go with it.. incredible
