A wonderful place for a wonderful dinner. I always enjoy Hothouse and last night was no exception. The wait staff was outstanding and in short supply. Food was great. The place is an always quiet enough for conversation. The only sort of disappointment ( just sort of) was the strawberry shortcake which was very dry. But! The decadent chocolate cake was outstanding!! We’ll be back soon.

Tasting menu highly recommended. An abundance of flavors. Service from Enzo and the rest of the staff was outstanding. Wine pairings were excellent, complementing the meal. The atmosphere was warm, inviting, and engaging. It's amazing to me that Michelin hasn't awarded the star yet.

Service was friendly but slow. Found out later that soup wasn’t available and had to re-order something else. Order that wasn’t affected came last and had to prompt to get it made. Was a busy night for the staff and it showed. Otherwise, always enjoy Fresh on Front.
