Delicious lobster rolls and spectacular service by Lisa

Let me start by saying that we ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE. Ledger is our go to place for special occasions, and we will continue to be back. On this visit however, there were a few minor issues that we haven't previously experienced here. The Popovers, an absolute must everytime we come, were a touch overcooked and tasted it. Also the cocktails at $15 a pop shouldn't be 80% ice in my opinion. And while I understand that this place features the grill on the kitchen, the vegetable medley on my chicken entree had several pieces of delecata squash that were beyond a good char. As mentioned, I'm sure this is a "one off" experience, as nothing like this has ever happened before, but I believe in honest feedback as a way to grow and improve, not necessarily just to be critical. I've appreciated this place for the better part of the last 7 or 8 years, and know that everything can't be perfect everytime, no matter how hard we try. Chef Daniel, and this culinary team are very skilled (there's a reason he was previously nominated for a James Beard award), and the FOH staff is always attentive and welcoming!

The waitress was really friendly. Service was awesome and the food was really, really great. We got the steak tartare for a starter and that was really good. Then my husband got the short rib ravioli and I got the salmon, both were excellent. Overall experience was awesome, would definitely recommend!

The food was outstanding; the service was friendly and great; and the complimentary pop overs and marinated mushrooms were a nice touch. My husband had swordfish which was juicy and cooked perfectly. I had a combination of Lobster, Shrimp and Scallops . . . YUM!
