                  Having been to SAX the last three years for Valentine's Day. The food presented for dinner was probably the best we have had. We just wish the service provided by our waiter matched the dinner.

                  Good food. Good service. A very long wait after all said and done. The meal took well over 2 hours and it was only apps entrees and dessert with 2 other tables. Patrick was great and knew his stuff! The food is very unique and different. They definitely experiment with flavors and some are hits and some are misses. Would return since it seems to be rotating flavors for breads and some desserts 7.5/10

                  Cold and snowy outside we were warmly welcomed, treated as old friends and taken care of like royalty. Morgan was great, Our wine was excellent, our meals were superb. A quiet evening on a special night for my brides birthday could not have been more perfect.

                  The atmosphere and service were excellent. The scallops were a little small and bland. The steak was good but slightly over prepared. The markup on the wine is substantial. I'd give it a solid 7/10.
