   Best food in Eugene. Superb steaks and great sides. Wonderful atmosphere. It was busy so service was a little slow, but totally kind and informative about the menu. The cold draft and crowd at the door need a solution - like a heavy velvet curtain.

   We were seated at the bar (just what they had available) so didn’t expect extraordinary service. And I’m usually happy to chat with folks I meet in communal bar seating. Unfortunately, service was simply AWOL. The bartender was overwhelmed, didn’t ask for a drink order or even acknowledge our existence for over 10 minutes. Just worked at filling drink orders for the rest of busy venue. Bartenders in this sort of hybrid role must be skillful in balancing the needs of diners he is supposed to be taking care of while also filling drink orders. Retraining is needed. Start with eye contact, greeting and menu shortly after a guest has been seated. Maybe add a dedicated food server for diners assigned to the bar? The appetizers we had were okay. Pork belly was not quite successfully rendered, but flavorful. Shrimp sauce was tasty and the fish was generously large. Won’t return without table reservation in main dining area.

   Kennedy’s was amazing! The food was stellar - we had the halibut, lobster and lobster mashed potatoes. Our server, Stacy, was phenomenal. Will definitely be back!

   Finally a great steakhouse in Eugene!! From the minute you walk into Kennedy's, you feel welcomed! We were there for my son's fiance's birthday and when we got to our table, there was a hand written note from the manager (I am assuming), wishing her a happy birthday! Our waitress was phenomenal, very attentive! The food starting from the bread to the appetizers, main dishes and dessert were all delicious! I highly recommend Kennedy's Steakhouse!!

   Very nice steakhouse. Steak cooked perfect, sides were almost there. For the price, it might be nice to know a little more about the origin of the meat, aging process, etc. Nice drink menu and atmosphere. I wish the lighting was a little warmer, the noise level and temperature goes up as the evening progresses. Overall a much needed upscale restaurant for Eugene.

    Fantastic high end steakhouse experience. Our filets were prepared exactly as we ordered them. The various side dishes were very tasty and a perfect combo to our entrees. Service was attentive and appropriate. Celebrated our 20th anniversary here (they comped our dessert). We cannot wait to return as the entire menu is filled with excellent options.
