A stylish departure from steakhouse tradition, The Fountain Room embraces Supper Club flair without the formality, blending fine dining with unabashed fun. Guests can indulge in timeless fare, including pickled relish trays, richly flavorful prime rib, classic side dishes, and house-made desserts, paired with strong cocktails and a well-curated wine list. The stunning space features velvet banquettes, glowing chandeliers, and a reel-to-reel machine that evokes a sense of nostalgia. Look for the historic Bottleworks hotel entrance and listen for sounds of mischief.

12/17/24: Our server was attentive and friendly and we tipped him well; the art deco decor was lovely; overall staff were friendly and courteous; wine selections/recommendations were fair - a little disappointing; scallops were cooked perfectly but were gritty. They did pair nicely with crisp kale garnish, slightly spicy corn pudding and serrano ham; beet salad was delicious and a bit spicy as well. Main downside was the cavernous space and very raucous Christmas parties that greatly spoiled the elegant Christmas atmosphere I expected for the price and location. Parties of the size and loudness experienced this evening were a bummer. I was looking forward to an intimate setting with my oldest and dearest friend in the world, where we could chat and enjoy each other’s company over great drinks and food. The Bottle Works District should expect a better level of quality and experience than the one we experienced this evening. This restaurant is not designed to accommodate large parties and intimate settings in the same space. Sadly, I’ll check this restaurant off my list of favs.

We went to your establishment to celebrate our friend's 50th birthday party. I wouldn't say it was a bad experience, however it was ok. It seemed like our server was very overwhelmed. We were a party of 7 and we had to ask her multiple times for items. We were disappointed that many of the brunch items were not available. I am not sure if I will return or not. I may have a better experience with the dinner menu items. It was nicely decorated and the staff was friendly and professional, so that was a plus.

We had an amazing dinner and experience at the Fountain Room where we celebrated our anniversary. The food was incredible, the service was outstanding (our server Katherine was the absolute best) and the atmosphere added a special feel/flair. It was our first time dining there and we enjoyed every minute from the thoughtful card signed by the team to the decadent desserts that ended our celebration.
