Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in Northwest

When you first enter Hopfields from Guadalupe street you’re in the bar / lounge. On the Friday night we were there it was bustling and I was a bit worried. But the space is much larger than just that first room, and after following the hall a bit we were seated in a room in the back where we could have a wonderful date night meal with just the right amount of separation from the other diners including those in the nearby large party seating areas. Anna was pleasant, knowledgeable, and just the right amount of attentive. The food was delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed the French onion soup, beet and ricotta salad, duck wings a l’orange, and lamb shank. Can’t wait to go back and try several other dishes.

Consistently good experience for years now. Thank you.

Highly recommend the chef’s burger! Great wine bottle deal at HH! The fries are the best! Friendly staff and cozy atmosphere:)

If you are staying at the hotel, definitely eat at Laurel. The outside setting is beautiful the cocktails are delicious and we really enjoyed the charcuterie board. We also had octopus that was really good, salmon, shrimp scampi, and the duck.  I thought everything was a little too expensive but that’s just me. A $25 glass of wine that was yummy but was still $25.

One of our favorite restaurants, we enjoy their very good food, and nice atmosphere.
