Totally amazing!!! Only comment I would say is that being a later seating 9:30 they really pushed food on us before we were done with the previous course. Not in such a manner that truly interrupted the experiance but we struggled to keep up with the two bottles of very special wines be brought to pair with the courses. Food was perfect and the server was spectacular! I love the policy of whosever card is first is the one that is charged it really keeps the arguing to a minimum. Sat at the front door with party of six and I was worried but never did we feel a draft or to much traffic really magnificent. Not sure if they have dessert but we were never offered a menu for it or ask about it. We did get a bowl of ice cream for the birthday which was very generous. Can’t wait to come back soon to see how this institution continues to improve! Truly can’t imagine many ways they could!

Absolutely lovely evening. Date night with hubby of 35 yrs was needed and first for me at Horatio was a great experience. Wonderful server with open personality. Manager came by to say welcome, nd that's always appreciated. Food was served hot with a beautiful presentation. As a sober girl, I really appreciated the mocktail menu. Key lime pie is a must. Cant wait to go back!!
