    Service was virtually non-existent. It took us over 15 minutes to get beer and wine from the bar. The server never checked up on us, and, because it was a holiday, we were forced to give a 20% tip for absolutely horrible service. We saw our waiter less than 5 times the entire evening and went through multiple periods where we had nothing to eat or drink for 15+ minutes. The lobster dumplings were caked in cinnamon and served in a sauce that was clearly sitting out. It was congealed by the time it got to us. We both took one bite of the dumplings before deciding to not even touch them again. The lobster cavatappi was decent, and the filet mignon was good. Overall, this place is over priced and not worth the money. If you want to charge what you’re charging, you need to justify it. And the terrible service and mediocre food was not worth what we spent. Most likely, I will never return.

    Awesome service. We were late for our reservation and the manager was kind enough to accommodate us. Our waiter George was amazing. From his attentiveness to his recommendations of food was phenomenal. Will definitely come back when the weather get nice so we can sit outside.
    Orchard Park by David BurkeResponded 1 day ago
    Good afternoon Jason. We're so pleased you had a good time with us and thank you for the kind words about your server! When spring hits, just indicate on your Open Table reservation that you'd prefer Terrace/outside seating if available.

    Overall, we had a nice time, but the food doesn’t give me a wow factor. The lobster dumplings were rather cold and needed some type of broth to make it more tasty. The pork shank was cooked beautifully, but lacked seasoning.
