   Extraordinary long time between courses- about an hour. 2 of the 4 entrees were room temperature- didn’t order steak tar-tar - server assured me a new filet would be prepared instead manager arrives at the table with the same filet that was placed under a warmer and still room temperature. At this point the mood was subdued and I was very hungry so I just ate it. Golden Corral style. The Server apologized profusely (not taking it out on her tip at Christmas) They gave the table of 4 free dessert. Which was good but overall I think it’s over priced food and drinks for the experience- one and done for us too many other fine dining restaurants in the area to settle for substandard

   We sat in the Boston room which we loved because it was more intimate. Waited 30 minutes for the first drink to arrive. 45 minutes later, the appetizers were finally served. It was close to an hour later when the tiny overcooked filet arrived. I had scallops which were good, but not fantastic as they usually are. The waiter offered us dessert. When we asked how long THAT would take???? he laughingly assured us it would be awhile. We went to another restaurant for dessert and after dinner drinks. This was my third trip to Dakotas, chosen for our anniversary because we have enjoyed it thoroughly in the past. It is WAY too expensive to tolerate a night like this one.

   The ambiance is very good and so was the food. Variety on the menu was good and surprised there was only 1 soup and 1 seafood entre as specials. Service is impeccable and not only with the server at our table. If you passed any server or employee going to the restroom or when leaving they addressed you and thanked you for being there. A truly enjoyable evening.

   Outstanding as always! Service and food were over the top! Might be the only restaurant in Covington that even when crowded, does not seem so. You can actually care on a conversation at your table without raising your voice! Always a treat to be there!

   Beautiful building, the servers are well-prepared, and the lighting is just right. Food is rich and delicious. A little hard to hear each other over other tables, but otherwise an exceptional evening.

   We celebrated our 24th wedding anniversary with an early 5pm dinner. The restaurant was relatively quiet when we arrived as there were several empty tables. Our meal was delicious and our cocktails were very good. We enjoyed the shrimp with polenta starter. The flavors were perfection. The grilled Caesar salad was yummy as well. For our entrees I got the scallops which I thoroughly enjoyed. My husband got the special which was a whole yellow snapper lightly crusted and fried with chimichurri and roasted potatoes. The presentation was impressive. We had a lady from a different table ask to take a picture of it. It was one of the best fish dishes we’ve had. For dessert they brought out a special chocolate surprise for our anniversary which was sweet and we also got the burnt goat cheesecake which I loved. It wasn’t super sweet. Overall had a great experience. Service and ambiance were top notch. Can’t wait to go back!

    What a beautiful restaurant with exceptional food and service! Jennifer is an outstanding waitress, and the drum was delicious. I finished the meal with my favorite dessert—Mrs. Judy's coconut cake. Look forward to returning.
