I enjoyed our dinner. My wife had the salmon and I had the pork chop. The Cavalier salad was also very good. Wines by the glass were average.

Hi Steven, Thank you for your review. Would you be able to provide more information on what you would like to see in our wine by the glass list?

The food was amazing and the service was exceptional. It was our daughter’s birthday and our server was delightful and attentive. While we were ordering dessert, I wanted to ask our server if I could hand him candles so our daughter could make a wish but he had already arranged everything before I even asked. If that is not top-notch service, I don’t know what is!

The dinner was very good. The dessert, however, seemed like it was bought at a grocery store, both the slice of apple pie and the ice cream. They were subpar in comparison to the rest of the meal. This was Thanksgiving lunch and it also ended up being quite pricey. We were rushed through the meal even though the place was not full. I wouldn’t do this again, not worth it. I like the Cavalier for a regular meal.

Food was great, we had the fish and chips which was recommended. Did not disappoint. Service and ambience both were great. Wine list is pretty pricy.
