                  The steak was one of the best had in a long time anywhere. The salmon and the apple slaw was delicious. We also enjoyed the learning tart. A great Old Market place to eat that doesn't disappoint.

                  Menu was different than what we were used to so we couldn’t have any of our favorites which was disappointing! Otherwise, everything was okay!

                  We haven’t been to UpStream in 20 years. Our return visit did not let us down. Great Food and Great drinks. Only issue was that our table was upstairs but hostess did not offer to take the elevator instead of stairs. This guy with 2 bad knees does not do stairs well.

                  The food was really good, except the waffles on the buffet were hard as rocks. For those who ate off the menu, the food was delivered in a short amount of time. Our server was funny and kept our glasses filled.

                  Most of the buffet food was good, except for the prime rib. Is was overdone and tough on the outer inch, and the inner part was completely raw (not rare)

                  Went w a group of 10 day after Xmas. It was not very busy as we went at 5:00pm. Service was just OK. Friends didn't get requested soda refills and I was never asked if I wanted a second beer. Food was fair - friends liked the fish and chips and my burger was good. Salads were kind of skimpy.
