    Another great dining experience at Roessler's. The large dining room with the great garden views is lovely. Our server was helpful and efficient and enhanced the experience for us. The veal was outstanding as always. The lobster-crab bisque was a silky delight. Overall a great place that makes you want to come back again and again.

    Everything was delicious! The rack of lamb was the best we ever had. I highly recommend it. The service was also excellent. It’s our very favorite restaurant.

    Service was very unpleasant, the waiter was inattentive, pretentious, pompous and disdainful. The food was definitely sub-par and far from what we expected. I would have returned my duckling if I had been in a restaurant in Paris or Dusseldorf; it was dry, flat, and devoid of any fresh flavor. The cherry sauce was bland and tasted like a paste coming right out of a cheap canned product from the nearby grocery store. The decor is very passé, and needs some serious revamping to provide a more contemporary ambiance... Very disappointing, and certainly not a place I will go back to in the future....

    We had a wonderful experience. As usual the cocktails, food and service were superb. The friends we were with had never been to Roessler’s before and they loved it. Our waitress Jessica was outstanding and our friends were extremely impressed by her service and told her so.

    Professional knowledgeable service, delicious food( salmon, veal piccatta) wonderful fine dining ambience. Unfortunately a party of six next to us raised the noise level to moderate.

    Unfortunately one dish, the duck was disappointing. Two of us ordered it and found it overcooked and therefore dry. Other dishes were of the usual high quality.
