Restaurants near Pickwick Recreation Center

The Odyssey is 5 minutes from our house, This year for our wedding anniversary we decided to try the Castaways and SURE GLAD WE DID. Very little traffic we arrived 35 minutes early and they asked if we wanted to be seated early? I said sure, we were given a outside table for 2 heater already on as the temp would be dropping, and a perfect view. Wyatt our server arrived within a few minutes introduced himself and was PERFECT in everyway throughout our stay. If I had to say something re the atmoshere.. the music was really loud at first a couple near us made the comment "Are they entertaining pit cobra's" for the middle eastern type of music, (On Thanksgiving??) lucky for ALL a within 10 minutes later the music was lowered. I'm sure the music was aimed at a younger crowd that bailed on their family dinner for a night out. All in all our evening was great and well worth 6K stars.

Beautiful venue and really good food. The big miss was waiting and waiting for a new batch of mashed potatoes to come out. There were 8 of us waiting and sadly they never came. My food was cold by the time I decided to go back to my table. When I told our waiter Josh, he fetched some for our table of three. That was a big miss and that’s why I gave a less than five star on food. Luckily Josh and Kyle (who seated us) saved the day with their charm!

TAO was such a great experience! Food and service was amazing and the ambiance was perfect for a birthday dinner! Great options that we could all share which made it easy to try multiple things. Will be back!

There’s a reason why this place is always busy! The food is incredible, service was welcoming and fun, and the ambiance was impeccable. Great for a date night, for friends and family or a solo date at the bar top.

Food and ambiance at M&F outstanding as ever. (I do wish they'd heat the bread, tho.) But this trip they outdid themselves in service. My dear companion now uses a cane and walks quite slowly. The valet noticed and actually drove him around to the front door where I met them having come down the stairs and secured our reservation. On leaving a member of wait staff lead him out a side door to the curb while I brought the car around. They made the night of my dear's birthday even more wonderful than just the dinner. This is old style service, above and beyond. Three cheers for Musso & Franks.
