    All food was excellent. The piece of salmon was tiny compared to the huge chicken (filling the plate), so I suggest making it a bit larger. Service was excellent, including our server Jenny.

    Outstanding, as always. The food was wonderful - the oysters Rockefeller are just so delicious. I wish they would add another slice or two to the bread we ordered. Two pieces for two people - one piece per person - is a little skimpy. The wine list is wonderful and the cocktails, perfect! And the service couldn't have been more spot on. Than you Mia - you are delightful. We will be back soon.

    Another magical evening dining in the Intermezzo courtyard. We had a new server, Alex, and she was fabulous - friendly, knowledgeable, and a delight to chat with. Made for a truly enjoyable meal.

    Last night we tried Intermezzo's new 'Tuesday Special' which is a delicious 3 course Prime Rib dinner, with mixed green salad, baked potato and seasonal vegetables, then finished with an incredible Creme Brûlée, $42. Make a reservation now!

    Our group of 6 went to Intermezzo last night to celebrate a birthday. Everything was superb. The staff was friendly and attentive but allowed us time to talk and enjoy the various courses. The food was uniformly delicious. Our wine glasses were kept filled. We had yummy desserts, though the chocolate cake was gone before we ordered dessert. The only drawback to Intermezzo was the lack of nearby parking, but it probably did us well to walk to and fro considering how much we ate! We celebrate each of our birthdays at fine restaurants each year. We will definitely be back to Intermezzo!

    Food was mediocre, servers nice but inattentive, had called ahead to arrange to surprise one of our party for their birthday which the hostess announced upon our arrival (ending the surprise.) don’t recommend.
