    Everything that we ordered on the Valentine’s menu was delicious! The gnocchi with pork ragu and burrata appetizer was OUT OF THIS WORLD! I always love the atmosphere at CurATE and will definitely be back!

    A unique venue with classic elegant bones and an artistic flair that permeates from the ambiance to the flavors and presentation of the fresh and healthy cuisine. Where else can you wander through the galleries feasting on the art while waiting for your appetizer…and your conscientious waiter finds you when your food arrives. The whole experience was delicious and refreshing and for a bonus quite romantic.

    My husband and I had the pleasure of celebrating his birthday Sunday 2.2 and we had THE BEST experience. Julie never fails to create the freshest, best tasting and unique dishes! We loved every bite and enjoyed everything from soup to nuts. The service was great, the cocktails so good! Dessert was amazing! We can not recommend Curate enough. You will have a wonderful meal in a beautiful environment and enjoy attentive service! Loved the background music. Can't wait to come back! Nancy and Dean

    Excellent menu, a great brunch spot with local farm ingredients and beautiful views of the hillside. Not to mention the beautiful artwork adorning the walls of the mini museum. Nice to admire and browse through before or after your meal.

    What can I say, Curate never disappoints. I had the Branzino for my entrée, and it was absolutely to die for! Every element of the dish is expertly balanced, with the fish grilled to perfection, and the artichoke —my favorite—adding a complimentary texture and flavor. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the service is always attentive and professional. It's truly one of my favorite dining spots!

    Beautiful spot now our favorite. The staff, food, ambience all were A+++ and our favorite spot to revisit now. We loved that the staff made our anniversary dinner so special with nice seating by the window with great view and the most amazing dinner. We were staying at a hotel close by but the food there was not great compared to CurATE. The price was reasonable considering the quality and service. The pork belly, scallops, fish and chips, mixed green salad and dessert- orange chocolate budino was our dinner picks and were absolutely delicious. The staff and the arts center where the restaurant is also absolutely A+ and I have posted few pictures to give you glimpse of it.

    We had a delicious meal! The Halibut fish and Chips, burgers (with an egg) cocktails, and fondue apps!! Desserts were house made and unique. A Smith Island cake, a chocolate orange concoction and Panna cotta. Great to have dessert worth ordering. Bailey, our server played along with our fun loving Table of 7. We were able to arrive 1/2 hr early and closed it down. Thank you!
