    Guard & Grace knows how to do it right! The tables are far enough apart that you're not bumping into other patrons and you can hold a conversation. The service couldn't be better with professionalism and friendliness. The food is delicious. Only criticism is the music is a bit loud.

    Let’s get this straight, the food was great, but our waiter was a bit slow. I’m all for enjoying my experience. As a matter of fact, I really appreciate when we are not rushed through a meal. However, a couple on the other side of us who sat down at least 15mins after us was taken care of by a different waiter and he seemed much more efficient. They ordered drinks, apps, mains and dessert just like we did and were done before us. Will chalk the slow service up to the possibility that the waiter was overwhelmed with it being a busy night, however he didn’t really move with purpose so not sure. He was knowledgeable and professional, just didn’t think it should take us over 2hrs for dinner. Main dining area was very loud. The two top tables are set up long ways so we felt like we had to talk really loud to hear each other which is not great considering two more two tops were on either side of us and very close. We kept wishing we had sat in the other room through the glass doors where it might’ve been a bit quieter and more enjoyable.

    Another wonderful celebration at Guard and Grace. Christine took amazing care of our table and had incredible attention to detail. Connor the som selected beautiful wines and bourbon to pair with the meal and the entire staff had impeccable service and we never lacked a thing. We tried some new menu items and each was delicious. This is hands down our favorite spot in town and they always deliver.

    Great food, dumplings were the best. Bring in the small room tends to be pretty loud and hectic on a busy evening. Other than that it was a great time.
