Excellent food and service five stars will return again

The evening was perfect! We were seated in the bar area but it was still quiet enough for good conversation. The food was amazing... the freshest cool salad ever, salmon Oscar and hanger steak done to perfection. The staff was engaging and attentive. The history of the Alcove is fascinating. Worth every penny! The atmosphere was elegant yet but stuffy or pretentious. All kinds of folks there. We are planning to go back again... and again!

Very busy, but never in a rush if we know the food is going to be delicious. Service was wonderful and food fantastic. Next time I need to get a tasty adult beverage as well with my dinner.

Couples birthday celebration for the wife. Our server, Tia(?) was delightful and courteous. The salads were tasty as well as the cocktails. A couple of people who got steaks said they were cooked perfectly but really light on seasoning that was finally attained through the accompanying sauce. The portions were on point and the offerings were plenty. The decor parallels the exterior with a warm, whimsical yet majestic feel. If you are offered anything with Blueberries, do not deny yourself this pleasure!

If you want a quality dining experience, this is the place try. Excellent service and the food was fantastic. Our waiter Reed was the best! And we got to meet the owners and have a wonderful fill-on on the history of the place. Loved the experience.
