A stylish departure from steakhouse tradition, The Fountain Room embraces Supper Club flair without the formality, blending fine dining with unabashed fun. Guests can indulge in timeless fare, including pickled relish trays, richly flavorful prime rib, classic side dishes, and house-made desserts, paired with strong cocktails and a well-curated wine list. The stunning space features velvet banquettes, glowing chandeliers, and a reel-to-reel machine that evokes a sense of nostalgia. Look for the historic Bottleworks hotel entrance and listen for sounds of mischief.

The experience was great once we got past the phalanx of indifferent “hosts” at the checkin desk. I thought this was a one off when the same thing happened the first time we went here last summer, but last night confirmed it. I can’t say if last night was the same group as out first time, but they acted the same. So what happened was we walked in to the place and went up to check in. I made an innocuous comment about how cold it was (we had walked for a few minutes after parking 2 blocks away) and the looks I got were as if I had grown a third eye. Is it so hard to be warm and welcoming, or if not, why not? There were three people, two women and a large man who “greeted” us. There was a bit of a mixup over about where we wanted to sit, but for some reason they spent a good 8-10 minutes trying to find a table, or something. (There were several booths available where we wanted to sit, by the way). Actually after we were seated in one of the booths our cheerful and friendly server Chelsea took wonderful care of us. She made it all worthwhile! A real gem. Our food was great - onion soup, prime rib, chopped salad, and the cocktails were great! As an aside, we are older (70 ish), and I hope that wasn’t the reason we were treated the way we were by these hosts. Something is wrong with the training of these people. I considered speaking to the manager about it, but didn’t want to ruin the evening. If you want return business of people with money to spend who enjoy eating out, please do better.

Beautiful restaurant. I wish we stayed downstairs to eat. Upstairs was nice but average and for the price I would expect the ambiance to be better.

Enjoyed the server, yet the service was very slow. Our table had a couple of filets, Tomahawk steak (special of day), and prime rib. All agree that the steaks were average at best. The restaurant has a great vibe, but the food doesn't match the ambiance. In hindsight, we should have tried something beyond the steak since it really isn't a steakhouse.
