Our service was absolutely exceptional. Everything you would expect at the four seasons. Friendly, warm, kind and still very professional. Best experience as always.💕 thank you for an amazing birthday celebration for our son and for accommodating our request to be close to the window! He was so excited and very appreciative.

Our party of four, celebrating a birthday for brunch. We all had an outstanding experience. We had 1:15 reservations for a Sunday brunch so the main crowd had dispersed. We had great service and the food and drinks came at our leisure. The table shared the pork belly hash as an appetizer and the plate was wiped clean. Entrees were two mushroom omelets, a smash burger and a prime rib french dip. Everything got shared around the table and there was nothing but smiling tongues. The highlight of the meal was the dessert of warm homemade Apple Crisp....with na candle! Four very happy and sated people walked out 1.5 hours later. GREAT MEAL!
