    The Proper is a cozy and stylish spot with a unique vibe. I really loved the library shelves decor—it gave the place a warm, thoughtful atmosphere that made it feel both laid-back and refined. The standout for me, though, were the blackened shrimp tacos. Perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of kick, they were fresh, flavorful, and seriously satisfying. Definitely a place I’d come back to.

    The food was delicious. The service not so much. After we ordered dessert we were told that our table was reserved for some e else and we were suggested by the waitress to cancel our dessert and coffee. Which was very rude. We ended up getting our coffee and dessert comped by the manager that was incredibly nice because we made a complaint. It’s very sad because the restaurant and the food was great but will not be going back.

    Too expensive. Service great. Burger good but a thimbleful of fries? 2 burgers, 4 beers, 100 bucks with tip. Too much.

    Usually a great place to eat but disappointing this time. Chicken was overcooked and dry..very little honey sauce on it. Had this experience with this dish on before but the next time i i got it it was fabulous. So seems like hit or miss depending on the chef and the day. Drinks were good. Disappointed that they were not serving Prime Rib on Thursdays as advertised. Next time I will call ahead to inquire. Should not have to do so.Getting a bit turned off by the inaccurate advertisement on social media.they need to update.

    The food was amazing. But our waitress was fantastic. She made my son’s 21st birthday fun and exciting. The other staff was just as good. Never were our glasses empty and everyone made sure to say happy birthday to my son without being cheesy.
