    I went for dinner with my co-worker for our company Christmas party on a Thursday night. We requested to sit by the fireplace in our reservation that was made well in advance. They were not able to accommodate our request. After the waitress took our order she was not to be seen for a very long time. We had to get help from another server. The very pricy ribeye lacked flavor and the asparagus was burnt. My cocktail was also the worst I have ever had. Not worth the price in my opinion compared to other restaurants.

    We were celebrating my husbands birthday and requested a table near the fireplace, as it is a very cozy spot. They accommodated our wish and it was the perfect spot. The hostess was very pleasant and our server Daniel was excellent. Overall a very nice evening. The dining room is rustic but yet elegant and cozy. Food is good. We are repeat customers and will continue to celebrate special occasions there and recommend to others.

    Well cooked, and interesting dishes. We ordered the duck, and the waitress asked us if we wanted it medium rare, as it should be. When we ordered duck at Dish they didn’t ask how we wanted it cooked, and it came out very overcooked. The tiramisu was among the best I’ve ever had.

    Laura was our waitress. She attended to detail. She took excellent care. The meal was delivered, food was prepared as explained. Easy to have a conversation in the environment. Everyone was gracious. A wonderful experience. A beautiful place to have a wonderful meal.

    We were told that our waitress was coming, but was in the bathroom. Then she came to our table and smelled like smoke. It felt like our ordering was sort of rushed. Didn’t get asked how I like the salmon cooked. Had to interject to say that we would like salads too. The salmon and steak meals were just not near as good as I recall from this restaurant. The staff was very kind, it was just these elements that were off, and not the experience I recall from years past.
