    Took family from out of town to dinner- first visit. We waited over 1.5 hours for our food. When we got the food 4 out of 6 meals were cold. The wait staff was polite and obviously frustrated. Not a good experience. If going to continue to charge the prices they are charging- need to step up their game. Although the wait staff was trying to make situation as pleasant as possible - it would have been appropriate for a manager to stop by and offer a comp on some portion off our $ 420 bill. Very disappointing.

    Eaten here several times but this time it took close to two hours to get our food. They were basically cleaning up the restaurant while we ate. My dish was lukewarm and pasty, although others’ meals were served hot. They did give us a free dessert to makeup for the slow service, but this is the third time out of about 8 visits where I’ve encountered service issues emanating from the kitchen. They need to work on that.

    Food was delicious and our server was lovely. Plenty of things on the menu if you need to be gluten free. Drinks came quickly.

    We went there on Christmas Eve. The place was very busy as one of the few restaurants open. The ambience was very warm and inviting. The service was excellent. The food was very good. I would go back again.

    Maya had a sweater that looked just like the woman at the table next to us. It was very funny but she didn’t want to take a picture with the other woman. We had a lot of fun and the food was amazing.

    Dinner at Pearls was all really good. Great drinks, sinful appetizer and delicious bbq. Only complaint was we had limited choice of reservation times but the place had plenty of open tables.

    This was a wonderful experience. The food was delicious. We were so overwhelmed by the excellent choices that we decided to come back two days later for a second dinner there! The service was impeccable and friendly and the food was so delicious. Highly recommend.
