    Music a bit too loud in the back seating area! But food was great. Drinks a bit overpriced but it was a celebration dinner.

    Agnes is beautiful. The staff is lovely. The menu is limited and expensive. If it’s going to be expensive it should have a better variety of offerings that are satisfying.

    A nice room, nice people running it, but the music was ridiculously loud and obnoxious. Read the room! Does anyone want Gloria and heavy metal blaring while they try to talk? We moved outside, asked repeatedly for the music to be turned down. It never was. Menu is limited and a bit odd. Wine list is good. This could be a great place, but as is, I’d never go back.

    Tasty food, creatively presented in attractive surroundings. Excellent service. (They even box up leftovers and have them waiting in the front for pickup when you leave.) A bit pricey especially for the entrees and somewhat limited wines by-the-glass, also a bit expensive.
