    Food was very fair at best. The beet salad was very mushy and limp. The crab bisque was very good! The prime rib sandwich was very gloppy the meat was ok very soupy sandwich with liquid cheese. Not really appealing! Server was excellent!

    The food was great. Everyone on the staff was super nice. A little quiet inside. The drinks are a little overpriced for the custom cocktails and they are just ok presentation wise for the price.

    We had a team dinner and decided to head across the street to The Berkeley, for convenience, and were pleasantly surprised to have a wonderful meal in the newly renovated space.

    We had reserved a table for four as it was Thanksgiving Saturday night before the theatre - but upon arrival the restaurant was empty. But we had the most delicious sumptuous feast with four different choices on the menu; every dish extraordinary and delicious; a waiter who graciously accepted additions and changes; a staff that was attentive; and a chef that deserves three stars for exceptional dishes.
