One: they had no issue splitting a tasting menu between two people in addition to us ordering a number of other things, which was a delightful and excellent way to taste what they had to offer. Two, dollar oysters on Tuesdays and half off small plates during happy hour meant an extremely reasonably priced luxury dinner - I think they do tartare the best in this city, their pork pate was delicious, and the tasting menu was fantastic. portions are good, servers are informed, it’s all kindsa good!

The server Jeremiah was very friendly and efficient. Very impressed that he removed our dishes after each set of food and when it was a little messy and cleaned up the table as well, better than many expensive restaurants. The New England oyster was great and its HH price could not be better. We ordered all small plates plus the rabbit cake and one other specialty. They all appeared to be very salty except the famous popovers. Over all it was a fun experience.

The food is always outstanding. Our friend noted that they have the BEST steak tartare he has ever had, including when he was recently in Paris. And this is an executive nit prone to hyperbole. The gnocchi is outstanding; the popovers are outstanding; the staff are courteous and not over bearing. This is an amazing restaurant!

I have reviewed this restaurant excellently in the past usually commenting on the happy hour. Last night I tried the 44 Farms burger and I can tell you it was the best hamburger I’ve ever eaten in my life!

Excellent brunch with excellent service as always. The popovers are a must and the zucchini bread was delicious. The mushroom recommendation for the omelette was on point. Just wish I had thought to order a cinnamon roll to go!
