GreenHouse provided a great experience for our pre holiday dinner with friends. The restaurant was appropriately decorated and festive. Our waiter, Benjamin, expertly guided our menu choices and was very attentive. Our friends decided on the Chateaubriand for two which they thoroughly enjoyed. It was carved table side by one of the chefs from the kitchen. It was cooked perfectly to medium rare. Kudos to all.

First time visiting and we liked it a lot! We were attracted by all the vegan possibilities and that turned out to be more choices than most because so many dishes allow you to choose meat or vegan (and clearly marked on the menu). The drink menu was interesting too, and the service was very good. Right at 5 pm we got parking at the door but given the location perhaps give yourself a few extra minutes just in case. Highly recommended!
