    I wanted to surprise my girlfriend with a chef tasting menu for our anniversary. This was the best choice by far. The chefs tasting menu for 2 was intimate and romantic without being pretnetious. It was the perfect amount of food and everything was so delicious. From the service to the food... Everything was perfect. Whenever people ask me where they should go, this will be the first place I suggest. And just to prove how good the service was, as we were already out the door heading to the car, our hostess/waitress called out to us to wish us a happy anniversary and to thank us for dining with them..... She deserves a raise!!

    The views from the restaurant are amazing! The table was perfect, just what we needed for our business meeting. The management was very accommodating when I had to add additional seating the day before. The staff showed us exceptional service and was super friendly plus very knowledgeable about the menu. We had an excellent time and will definitely be back!

    1/8/2025 - At my age, 77, I have lost my appetite for restaurants and prefer my cooking. The Chart House is an exception to my preference as the restaurant is excellent, like 10 out of 10 on a scale from 1 to 10, 10 being best, as to quality of food, presentation of the dish, taste and service. Nothing more need be said.
