The food and service at Hunter is excellent. Our drinks were served immediately with bread and thin slices of prosciutto which was a very nice touch. A dish of olives was served as well. We chose an eggplant appetizer and linguine for the main dish. I chose a lamb tagine which was the special of the day. For dessert we picked a delicious pecan pie with tea. Every thing was scrumptious and served ontime. We highly recommend Hunter for a couple or a group.

We booked this as a first time food adventure - Hunter offers a beautiful setting with a bit too much noise for our crowd on a Wednesday evening. Some added sound deadening materials might do the trick. Friendly host and bartender set the expectations for an evening of excellent food and service. Our waiter seemed rushed and unsure of his command and confidence with our table of first timers. Food was pleasant with a unique French inspired pizza and grilled octopus being the stars. The Fried calemari was over cooked for me. The mains were an assortment of salmon, cooked to perfection and massive bone on Veal Chop and a wonderful interpretation of Veal parmigiana pounded just right and cooked perfectly - $65 for Veal Parmigiana was a shocker. The vegan at the table was disappointed in the size of a simple salads and pasta primavera and we endured through a few rounds of bread and drinks. Too full to experience dessert we met Hunter the Chef / Owner and wished him well on his adventure. No value here, but quality ingredients cost money - if you’re looking for small spot with a unique menu presentation then Hunter is for you.

This restaurant is very lively. The noise level can be high at times, however the atmosphere is upscale and the food and service are great. So I would definitely recommend for anyone that hasn’t been.

It’s a nice place however waiting 45 plus minutes for a table after having a reservation is not okay, will keep that in mind before going there again

Very pretty place, definitely a scene . (Was there on a Saturday night) I understand noisy but the acoustics here were deafening. The food was just OK, not bad but not amazing. The service was mediocre as well. The waiter had to be called over to the table otherwise he was nowhere to be seen. Probably not going back. Much better places to eat.
