Absolutely loved this gem. Not only was the food outstanding but Sarah (manager, bartender, server - she does it all) drove us with love and care through a unforgettable wine and food experience. Sarah puts the “S” in service and if you eat there be sure to request that Sarah takes care of you. We were lucky enough to have her full attention at the bar.
I love the atmosphere at Mona Lisa, so much more intimate for a date. The food was phenomenal and the server was fantastic. I never knew how awesome grapes dipped in fondue cheese would be! Definitely recommend this place over the Melting Pot for a date.

One of the best meals you could have in Sedona! I tried the Venison Mole and couldn’t get to take a picture until the dish was done! The meat is cooked to perfection just like how its suppose to be. Service was great, and would highly recommend this place when you visit Sedona.

Delicious meal, amazing service, and delicious food. Entrance looks like a subway entrance and upon entering you’re greeted by friendly staff and cozy ambiance. There are a wide range of seating style from high table top to booth cushion seat. Our waitress is very friendly and make great recommendation. We were a group of 3 and a friend in the group is vegan - we were impressed with range of vegan options for appetizer and entree and was glad we could order something the whole table can share.

Food is big portion size. Only comment is I wish we were informed the bread with pasta is extra ($6) as we though it was complimentary like in Italian restaurant when we were asked if we wanted it and it wasnt listed as extra cost/option on the menu.
This place is wonderful. The service is extremely attentive, genuine and aware of your needs. They are very hospitable.

The food is in my top 5 best meals I’ve had, ever. We ordered a Malbec and a Merlot (amazing), Mushroom and Gruyère appetizer, the Pepper Steak, and Steak Diana for our entrees and Banana Foster for dessert.

Every bite of every dish made me melt. We will come back every time we visit town.
Absolutely delish! Super reasonably priced for upscale. We got the Pepper Steak and Steak Diane which is their top sellers. I'll admit that when I heard "cooked tableside" that I assumed it would be just the sauce at the end, but, no.. they legit mean Cooked tableside 😄 never in my life would I have imagined we'd be able to cut our steaks with a butter knife with them using a one burner small pan method. They came out right around the time we got our salad and got to work so by the time we finished apps, it was fresh hot and delicious!! The steak diane was by far the BEST! I loved the pepper steak too but the sauce is what makes the diane. Hubby and I always get something different tho so we can share. Highly recommend the Scalloped potatoes and jumbo lump crab cakes- they have a Lil kick to them but it pairs well with the basil aioli. We had the cherries jubilee for dessert that was also cooked tableside. Incredible service and drinks too! We got a window side table so it was magical getting to look over the city throughout. Definitely a new favorite and you should try it too!

Our service was phenomenal. Both Ted as our server and Taylor as our bartender. It was our first year anniversary and they both went above beyond to make the night perfect. The food and atmosphere were incredible too - but the service is what made the night memorable and worthy of a repeat performance. Thank you for making our stay extra special l.

Outstanding service, ambiance, and fantastic food presentation.
Had the rice noodle bowl, i very disappointed in the overwhelming spicy heat of this dish.
The heat was so overwhelming, it overshadowed any spices, and flavor of the food....any other flavors could not come through because of the raw heat.
The noodles and other ingredients was cooked perfectly, however the sauce was very watery....not how it is described on the menu as a glaze.
If this dish was prepared properly, I employ the Chef to taste a good portion of it.
Based on the great reviews, I must have chosen the wrong dish.
Dry Creek is an awesome spot for a fancy dinner in Healdsburg. The menu changes with the seasons, the food is delicious and on the cleaner/ healthier side compared to other multiple course options out there (the oyster was a favorite). We had one not-so-great experience there which was noted and quickly fixed by their manager showing customer empathy and their true wish to provide a great experience. Highly recommend!
Had a wonderful 3 course meal with wine pairing. We chose the Tomahawk steak and it was cooked perfectly. Adam did a great job serving us. He and the crew were very attentive. The wine pairing hit the spot on each course.
$305 plus tip. Fondue for 4 people. I guess it's not my taste. Staff was great. We must have been seated in the coldest part of the restaurant. Very dimly lit.
It was where my nephew wanted to go for his birthday. I'm a full steak and trimmings restaurant kind of person.
Again, the staff are the stars.

Pros:
* Beautiful restaurant
* Top-notch service, very attentive servers
* Mise burger FTW! (Minus the onion ring)
* calamari was a safe appetizer choice.
* Rosemary biscuits were yummy.

Cons:
* zucchini blossoms were very oily for my taste.
* Ribye entree was a mess. No seasoning what so ever on the steak, very chewy. Parsnips were very hard, i couldn’t cut it with my cutlery.
* Chocolate basque cheesecake dessert: MAJOR LETDOWN! I was looking forward to this dessert but it was quite dense. Basque cheesecake has been trending on social media as the best cheesecake for their luscious light and creamy filling. This was nothing like it.

Overall, my friend and I spend over $170 for rather mediocre meal. Just come for the burger, omit the rest.

Everything was PERFECT! we got there 30 mins before our reservation so they let us wait at the bar. We got seated within 10 minutes. The ambience was outstanding and only beaten by the quality of the food. We had the rabbit meatloaf and the lamb and both were perfection. My boyfriend ALWAYS adds salt to his food, no matter how nice the restaurant. For the first time in 2 years he added NO extra salt or pepper. He said "that would be an insult to the chef". The prices were incredible for the quality. Will definitely go back!!!

Had a lovely anniversary dinner here! We sat outside at night and it was very romantic. Our server Curtis was amazing ! He took our photo and was very helpful with the menu ! I will say it is by the pier and a Saturday night so the pier was bumpin, some other patrons were not happy with it but I enjoyed the music. Overall wonderful experience!

The encounter was amazing! It was the best cuisine I've ever eaten, and the food was amazing! The design was ultra-chic and futuristic, creating an elite atmosphere. Our water glasses never fell below half thanks to the exceptional attention to detail provided by the wait staff.

Me and the family decided to try The Rabbit Hole for my wife's birthday dinner. The atmosphere was good, the waitress was friendly, all the drinks were good, and the food was alright. Don't think that 1 drink and 1 main course was worth about $50/person, definitely wasn't that great all together.
This is a great option for Italian in Tribeca! This was a perfect option for one for bar seating. The staff was attentive and made great recommendations. That lasagna was such cozy and comforting pasta! 🍝

During our stay at Enchantment Resort, we stopped by Che Ah Chi 2 times~ one for lunch and one for breakfast. We are so happy with the service and our greeted, host and waitress. I think our waitress name was taylor~~ she is just the best, she not only remembers our face but also did everything to accommodate our diet needs.

The food was really really good, accompanies with a nice view of the canyon. Our favorite was the dip (I asked for crudités instead of chips) , and the breakfast eggs are amazing too. Lastly, try their prickly pear yogurt~~~ probably the best fruity yogurt I have had so far:-)

Only reason I rated 4 stars for the atmosphere is because there are families here, and some kids can be really really loud if you are seated at a table next to them… so just be aware of this.

Would not recommend. Ordered an individual pizza, it was pricey so I thought I would get something better than a dollar slice. It took about 40 minutes to come out and when it did, it was very dry and crispy.... I ate it because I was hungry but it was not good at all. Will never come back - not worth it!

This place was everything we expected and more! We had a group of 4 and all were happy with our experience. The food and presentation was great. The drinks were delicious. The atmosphere and artwork were exceptional. I would definitely recommend the Rabbit Meatloaf and the Sticky Ribs.
As a seafood and steak lover, I was in food heaven. The lobster was cooked to perfection, tender and flavorful, while the steak was melt-in-your-mouth delicious. The chef’s expertise was evident in every bite. And the view! The panoramic vista of Colorado Springs was breathtaking, especially as the sun set, casting a warm glow over the city.

It’s rare to find a place where you can indulge in world-class cuisine while being treated like a valued guest. This restaurant has achieved that perfect balance. If you’re looking for a culinary experience with impeccable service and a view that takes your breath away, this is the place to be.

We had a group dinner for 25 people which was absolutely stunning. Charlie, GM Dan, Chef Shane, and the entire staff made the evening one of the best meals this group has ever experienced. The appetizers and dinner courses were paired perfectly with the wines. The scallop dish was over-the-top as was the pear dessert which looked like a rose. Oh, and the J. Rochioli wines impressed the group.

Outstanding job, Dry Creek Kitchen!!! You have taken you’re already top-notch experiences to even greater heights!

I love it here! Judy the host is the sweetest in the world and the food is always top notch. My friends and I go for brunch often - would recommend the french toast, it is so so fluffy, and the chosen omelette.

Warm, inviting atmosphere and staff. Lovely area, and solid brunch. Figured the bill would be big given the above positives, but was surprised. I've had worse eggs bennies at twice the cost.

You won't be disappointed!
Great place! As a fan of the TV series "sex and the city", it was nice and delicious to visit here.
This was a great experience! We had the 4 course Fondue dinner and split a bottle of wine. Our waitress was so sweet and personable. Great service and romantic ambiance.
What an amazing little spot on the top of the hill with a gorgeous view overlooking the city. We had a reservation for 7, and had to wait about 15minutes to be seated. We grabbed some drinks at their bar which were delicious. All of the food on the menu was so thought out and every bite was amazing. We chose their lobster appetizer to start which was the best decision. Each of our main courses were absolutely filling, so much so, we obviously have leftovers. The ribeye was perfectly cooked and my halibut with scalloped potatoes were some of the best. The last thing is that their Barlow Salad aka wedge salad, is now my all time favorite in town. This place is quite a catch, whether it’s a date night or work party or family affair.

I have been there with 3 guests. The 2 people from Italy and 1 person from Japan. I told them I would like to seat by the window when I made a reservation.
When we went there our table was not by the window. I think the hostess should tell us about it before into the restaurant.
The waitress is friendly, food was pretty good.
Great sunset dinner spot on KW! Grouper is great. Got some small plates to share. Shrimp Mac n cheese amazing.
Where is the greeter? Is there a different entrance other than what i assume is the front, where you would find a greeter? Is this a private place off limits to tourist? Is there a certain attire? We walked briefly through, no warm feeling at all, almost thought I walked into I don't know, wasn't suppose to be there? Or allowed, geez my father use to be an Awesome golfer, from Havard, Dunstable, Ayer, MA, Fort Devens MA, he would have been accepted there, don't recall if he played there tho.
The Food was delicious! I would definitely go back. If your going during prime hours you should make reservations.
Breathtaking views, I truly don’t think there is a bad seat in the whole restaurant. We dined in late August and it was not overly crowded. We sat outside looking up to the mountains during sunset and we were blown away. I can’t emphasize enough how amazing our dishes were - my friend ordered Duck and I got Venison Mole and I am still dreaming about it. Both dishes were beautifully presented and tasted incredible. Oh and the risotto is a MUST for app. I would say this place is worth every penny.

A must try when in The Springs! Definitely RSVP in advance, especially on the weekends. Atmosphere was on theme and cozy - definitely had the speakeasy feel. Service was friendly but felt just a bit rushed out towards the end.

Angus Ribeye = 9/10 - hefty portion size and juicy - could’ve used a bit more seasoning. Mashed potatoes were *chefs kiss. Asparagus was good but could’ve been cooked for a tad longer.

Braised short rib = 9.5/10 - again, mashed potatoes were to die for! Carrots were well done and braised short rib was perfection. Fell off the bone so easily and flavor was on point. Only wish is that I had more of it.

The “T” Party = 9/10 - super smooth and a great twist on the classic margarita.

Amaretto Sour = 8/10 - good, not too sweet or sour but not the best. personal preference: wish there was more egg white

Carrot Cake = 8/10 - good, not too sweet, good size for 2 of us, but have had better.

Our waitress Paige was fantastic. We didn't have to ask for anything! Water was refilled, and drinks were replaced, she was attentive and efficient. The food was good and filling, and Caesar salad was good, but the lettuce was soft. We will be back next time we are in town.

Finally got to try this neighborhood hotspot, perfectly located on a corner and across from a nice park in Park Slope. Started with some nicely made cocktails and moved on to a bottle of reasonably priced Prosecco. Had a lobster bisque and a nice arrugula salad with white anchovies and quail eggs. Both were very good but bisque could have been a little hotter. For dinner we had the black ink pasta with seafood and a coconut milk and tomato sauce, very nicely done and seafood tasted fresh. We also had the whole grilled branzino, excellent sized fish, nicelly cooked and spiced served with a side of sautéed kale. We also had a side order of delicious oven baked potato quarters. We went all out and had some amazing desserts, a blueberry bread pudding and a chocolate liquidy cake. I was happy that we were finally able to check this fine place out, it certainly did not disappoint.

Great fine dining spot in the heart of Healdsburg. The service is very good and the food doesn’t disappoint; there’s also a nice bar for those dining solo or those who prefer the bar. The menu is somewhat limited but there is something for everyone. We enjoyed our appetizers, entrees and desserts. We celebrated my birthday here and we’re very pleased with the experience. Availability may be hard to come by on the weekends so be sure to make a reservation ahead of time.

Stone Park Cafe is the Barbie Movie of brunch spots. Everyone loves it and you want to be cool and counterculture and not like it, but with 5 star service (Molly), cozy clean decor and delicious food, you can’t help but follow the crowd and dawn your pink beach outfit and order the fish cakes. Stone Park Cafe lives up to the hype.

This location is primarily for the aesthetic as well as the flavor. Yes the price seems steep but for the quality you receive it is fair. The truffle fries were a great start to freshen up the palette. Emily was kind enough to make suggestions regarding the menu as it was my first time there. I'm glad I trusted her judgement! Her service was excellent and she was pleasant to have around. Also my kindest regards to the chefs, they did a remarkable job at pleasing the taste buds. I look forward to my next visit.
I have been to the Pepper Tree multiple times and consistently had a delightful experience! The wait staff are so unobtrusive, friendly, and attentive. The food is consistently cooked to perfection. The table side food cooking is entertaining and intriguing. Absolutely loved the pepper steak and the bananas foster. Heat place for a special life event or a date.

This is a great place to eat, as the food is delicious and the service is amazing. The restaurant is to dark, but the decoration creates the Alice in Wonderland environment. Each plate was amazing, tasty and big, you can even share with your partner some of them. The service was amazing, they were always attentive and eager to answer our questions. Definitely recommended and a must visit place in Colorado Spring.
Visited Ristorante Di Sopra last weekend with my wife and parents. As typical with us, we found the restaurant doing a Google search of the area while spending a weekend in Colorado Springs and Pikes Peak. The service was great and the food was fabulous. We ordered the duck and the osso bucco.

Burned bread & worst ravioli I’ve ever had in my life: $36 dollars with taxes and a +20% tip, server said it was a 9/10, definitely not. Don’t waste your time and money here, I did and I deeply regret it.
Cannot love this place more. Entertainment every night. So much fun. Warm, welcoming and delicious!
Potato dumplings in mushroom gravy is a must!
A wonderful piano player provides the background for this Russian Restaurant. Excellent service and a number of good choices from a menu of Russian cuisine makes for an enjoyable experience. The food, is not what it should be. The Beef Stroganoff, for example was served warm, not hot like it should have been. The restaurant is in a very good location for Broadway theater.
Food and drinks very thematic, authentic and delicious. This place has such a great energy. The food is absolutely stunning and very authentic, I felt like I was eating at Babushkas apartment.

Moon served us the whole night and what a spectacular man! Very attentive excellent chit chat and charisma. I’ll be back for sure

Amazing place to have dinner. It is definitely a little further out from downtown Sedona, but worth the drive.

Raw oysters, great choice of appetizers, venison for main dish, very spacious, calm restaurant. Cherry chocolate dessert was soo good, highly recommend!
I made a reservation for my husband's birthday, and was excited to try the amazing food. We were not disappointed. We got the Cesar salad, and it was prepared in front of us. This was by far the best Cesar we ever had. Our dinner was spectacular! I highly recommend if your looking for an amazing experience and delicious food.
Big fan of the bolognese and tiramisu. Great service and nice environment to dine in.

If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I would. Being an Alice in Wonderland fan, I tracked this place down almost a year before our trip. I loved it so much. The atmosphere was perfect. It's upscale, yet comfortable. The food was some of the best food we've ever had. My husband said it was the best steak he's ever had. The carrot cake was melt in your mouth. Ugh, I just loved it everything about it!

My wife and I celebrated our 22nd anniversary here. The staff was great, food was great and the atmosphere was great. That said we don't typically do this kind of dining except for special occasions. We have never gotten an anniversary gift card from anywhere we've ever ate plus pick or dessert of choice from the menu. We would go back even without those extras. Jordan was our server and she told us she was fairly new but she answered our questions and took care of us great job. Thank you all at Restaurante Di Sopra for a great evening!!!

Charlie Palmer’s Dry Creek Kitchen has been a top Sonoma County restaurant for over 20 years. The dinner we had there last night was fantastic. Sometimes restaurants that have been successful for a long time start living on their reputation and stop innovating. It’s great to see DCK continuing to provide a creative, high quality experience.

Stop searching, and go here! What an incredible experience that was. My wife and I went there for an anniversary dinner. Katie was the manager and she was just the sweetest thing in the whole wide world. She also had her daughter's working with her that night, and you can tell they were cut from the same niceness cloth. The food is fantastic. It's actually quite amazing what they can do practically on a camping stove. My Diane steak was cooked to perfection, and the recommended potatoes that went with it were delicious. Delicious. Don't forget about the wine. The bartender was very intelligent, and knew exactly which wine to get. There's a lot of delicious places to eat in Colorado springs. Go here.

Amazing food. Excellent service. Wine pairings perfect. What more could you ask for?
Excellent dinner and service. We love Swiss cheese fondue and Mona Lisa did not disappoint. It was some of the best we’ve ever tasted. Melting Pot doesn’t even compare. The Caesar salad was average but good. Good variety of fruits, veggies and bread for the fondue. Definitely recommend.
Awesome spot on the water for a bite to eat. The food was super good, I just wish the waiter hadn’t taken my food after a couple bites. Spent my morning pretty hungry and confused why he did that. But the couple bites I had were really good, lol. The champagne to orange juice ratio was perfect for the mimosas, though so I guess that’s alright.

Che Ah Chi is the best restaurant I have ever been to. I am a massive foodie and have been to tons of different places all across the world, and basically nothing compares to Che Ah Chi. I am longing to go back! Not only is their dinner absolutely exceptional, their breakfast is one of the best I have ever had! And lunch too - incredible!

We stayed at Enchantment Resort for 3 days, 3 nights so we tried many meals here. Having eaten that many times at one restaurant, you’re bound to find one or two things you don’t like too much…with Che Ah Chi, we didn’t! I can’t believe it! Every single food item we got we were in love with! The chefs did such an amazing job. The dishes were flavorful, unique, blended Native American/Southwestern cuisines perfectly, drinks were top-notch, and portions were great.

From the Huevos Rancheros, to the Sonoran Burrito, to the Eggs Benedict, to even the Chilaquiles - you literally can’t go wrong with breakfast! You’ll want to wake up early enough to get breakfast because it is a very special treat here! Be sure to try the caramelized bananas with your breakfast because they’re incredible!

I can’t even describe the flavors at dinner…foie gras, elk osso bucco, venison mole, and the best duck ever. So many more wonderful items on the menu and the DESSERT is incredible too!! Just read their menu and look at how inventive, local, and high-end their cuisine is. I think Che Ah Chi alone is enough of a reason to stay at Enchantment Resort. I cannot wait to go back!

I like the artistic presentation of the food. They did their best to fulfill special requests. I like the wild mushrooms the most. The crab cake is not up to par. Too much bread and not fresh meat. Scottish Salmon is good not great. It is not super fresh and well prepared. The sunset and ocean is beautiful to see here
The summer salad was fantastic, second course with the brie cheese was also great. We got the wild game for our third course and it was lackluster compared to the other courses. Dessert was delicious, but you can’t go wrong with chocolate covered everything.
Great spot to enjoy a Key West sunset (if you can secure an outdoor table. Maitre d said we couldn’t, even though tables were empty our entire time there). Waitstaff was much friendlier and attentive throughout the meal. Food was good, not great. Key lime pie was one of the least memorable throughout the Keys. Probably would not dine here again.
My husband and I returned to this restaurant hoping for a better experience, but unfortunately, we were disappointed once again. The pizza took too long to arrive and when it did, it was dry and difficult to eat. The service was average, but what surprised us the most was finding a 20% gratuity already included on the check, even though we were only a party of two. When questioned, the server mentioned that it's their policy. Overall, our visit left us unsatisfied and we hope the restaurant addresses these issues for future customers.
My boyfriend took me here to celebrate my graduation, and the entire experience was absolutely amazing. Our server Matt was phenomenal! Extremely knowledgeable on the menu/wines, patient, efficient, and hilarious. He went above and beyond to ensure we had a perfect night, even going as far as to draw a stethoscope out of chocolate in honor of nursing school. Great food, great vibe, great wine, just an absolutely amazing experience.
Ok. So I was skeptical. My husband and I love trying higher end restaurants. I've been passing on Pepper Tree because I thought no way is this place off 8th Street that good! But I finally convinced myself to make the reservation and just WOW! It was almost too good to believe! Honest to goodness this place went to the top of our list! Food was amazing! We are ready to go back!! Will order the Steak Diane this time (hubby ordered it). The portobello mushroom was absolutely perfect!! We definitely recommend the Pepper Tree for special occasions since it is a bit pricey.
What an incredible experience!

I made reservations through their Resy app, and requested the balcony seating for the sunset view to celebrate my mother's birthday. They could not guarantee balcony seating due to high demand, but we were pleasantly surprised upon arrival when the lovely hostess guided us to the "perfect" spot overlooking the gorgeous sunset!

Our table was decorated with a shining "Happy Birthday" sign, which was an unexpected detail that made us smile, and elevated the already pleasant experience.

Our waitress welcomed us with a smile, acknowledged the special occasion, and gave us the (very cool) back-lit menus. Her beautiful energy added to the joyous occasion, and her kind attention was much appreciated.

We ordered the Champagne (Nicolas Feuillatte Brut, France) to start, which was light and perfectly complimented the warm ocean breeze and soothing sunset hues.

Everything on the menu looked enticing. I was immediately drawn to the Jumbo Lump Crab Cake with bacon, corn sauce, and baked lemon. The Lobster Bisque with brandy, lobster salad, and lemon-chive creme fraiche was also a must, as was the Blackened Shrimp Mac & Cheese with andouille, cavatappi, and manchego gratin. Lastly, we added the Crispy Brussel Sprouts, sweet-and-sour with fresno peppers, per our waitresses' recommendation.

Every bite was a celebration of rich flavors, and textures. We loved everything that we ordered, and the brussel sprouts were unexpectedly exceptional!

Our waitress checked in on us throughout the evening, refreshing our glasses of bubbly as we delighted in the magic of the evening's colors, and gentle ocean breeze. She was attentive without being pushy or making us feel rushed, which we appreciated.

We punctuated the meal with the grand marnier creme brulee with caramelized sugar and adorned with a vanilla bean macaron. We love creme brulee, but this one had a touch of Key West flair with a hint of key lime zest. So delish!

Our experience at Hot Tin Roof was exceptional all around -- dreamy views, delectable dishes, and delightful service!
This place had ambience, fabulous food, and quality service. The actual restaurant is darling and feels like something old and classic. I took my partner here for her birthday and we got the vegan menu and she enjoyed the flaming chocolate finale. The vegan cheese is super yummy and the selection for the main entree was diverse. Hearts of palm, Beyond sausage, teriyaki soaked mushrooms (our fave), and more! The literal only complaint is that it's such a friendly restaurant for vegans so I wish it had a vegan dessert option. Even some lemon Italian ice or mint chip ice cream.

Brian’s service was spectacular. The setting was elegant, relaxing, and enjoyable. The food was beautifully prepared, and so delicious! What a splendid way to celebrate a delightful visit to beautiful Healdsburg. Our thanks to Brian and colleagues for a wonderful evening.
We ate here for our 25th wedding anniversary. We sat on the balcony outside with a beautiful view of the water and live music playing below. The food was really delicious and especially the desserts. Service was top quality, friendly, professional. Our server, Oscar, also took the time to offer to take our picture when the sun was setting. The pics turned out great! Definitely a place to dine while in Key West. You will not be disappointed!

Food was ok. The ossobucco was hard. Could be cooked a little longer same of the braised pasta beef. The braised pasta sauce was very thick.. this is not a Handicapped friendly location. The restaurant is in the second floor. The fish was overcooked too.
Favorite brunch spot in Park Slope. Biscuits and gravy are top notch, as is the short rib hash. If you get the Eggs Benedict, get it with bacon and spinach! You're worth it! Can be a bit chaotic checking in to get a table but well worth it.
I've been coming here every year for years and they always have the perfect service for me. The food is really good and the view is the best on the island for a restaurant. There is indoor and outdoor seating which we love sitting outdoors and we love to people watch. Boats also pass by going on their excursions and it's interesting to watch. The service at this restaurant is always fantastic and they always take really good care of us so thank you for that. The breakfast is fantastic as well.
Love this place! Really makes you feel like you are in “authentic NYC”, every time I visit I feel transported in time. Since I first came here in 2013 their menu has changed a lot but recently they have returned to more traditional Russian dishes. Which is great!
I love the live music also.
This is one of those NYC must visit spots!
If you are from Eastern Europe or ex USSR you will appreciate the nostalgia and all the memorabilia.
We absolutely LOVED our evening here! We were recommended by a friend for my birthday, so we made the drive and it was totally worth it. The building itself is so cute, and you can feel the history of it. Our waitress was so amazing, and really made my birthday feel special. I didn’t think my husband was going to enjoy the experience, because it’s just not really his thing. But he raved about the whole experience afterwards. He also highly complimented the dark chocolate fondue.

Get. The. Pancakes.

Got the eggs Benedict which was super good. The potatoes were excellent. Then got pancakes to share. The presentation was so beautiful and the pancakes themselves were so delicious, that we barely wanted syrup.

Judy, who helped us to our seats and ran the show on this busy Sunday brunch, was incredibly nice and accommodating. You could tell she was going above and beyond for this place.

Overall, wonderful experience and definitely recommend!!
I will apologize first if this seems rude as that is not how i mean to come off however these are for honest reviews and I feel the reviews we read were misleading.
I feel the atmosphere was very blah. There was no soft contemporary music or anything and besides the other conversations it was eerily quiet. Prices were rather high for some products. I ordered cod fishsticks for $25.00 and they tasted like a vat of oil, crispy crunchy batter but very thick and not appetizing and lacked flavor. My husband ordered the strip steak for $39.00 and it was burnt on the outsides but practically raw and cold inside. They also only had three staff that we saw. We were not familiar with the area so we gave it a try based on reviews.

To kick off the review of Stone Park Cafe, let’s start with the good. I purchased the Steak and Eggs & the steak was cooked pretty well. The portions were pretty big. I subbed out the potatoes for fries (classy I know) for a steak frites type of deal. This is when things take a turn toward mediocrity. The fries were quite underwhelming - something I believe is quite hard to achieve. They were coated in a crispy cover yet were surprisingly soggy. Beyond this, I ordered my eggs over easy. They came out almost completely cooked through, lacking any seasoning at all. The steak was somewhat under seasoned, yet, had quite a nice flavor. The whole aesthetic was a bit tacky in my opinion, the water glasses were tall and bulky, the plates were unnecessarily huge, and the walls were quite barren, with a failed farm to table-decor type of vibe.

All in all, I don’t quite understand the high reviews of this place. The portions were nice and the food and service okay, probably wouldn’t come back.

Wow! This eloquent restaurant impresses as soon as you walk into the door and it doesn't stop till the last bite of a perfectly crafted dessert. The duck breast just melts in your mouth and the buttermilk Blue Crab appetizer was so unique in presentation as well as texture. The cocktails are well crafted and refreshing. The bourbon list was fantastic. There is free parking in a garage across the street if you can't find a spot on the street. Service was spectacular and attentive to everything we needed. This is by far one of the hidden gems of the downtown Tampa area. You want fancy and worth the cost of an exquisite fine dining experience? This is your place.

Chef Marty, Maryann and the team hav3 been feeding me Mise en Place for 25 years. Consistently among the best restaurants in Florida. Great food, wine, cocktails and service. Marty was the first local chef to open a gourmet chef:driven market & eatery but it was too early for Tampa. The two have been a positive force for local, small businesses, helping their employees grow their careers into other roles and likely far more positive things to recount here. Highly recommend! Located across the street from University of Tampa.

This was a lovely dining experience. It has become one of my favorite restaurants in the Tampa Bay area. I got the rack of lamb, which was very good. I would pass on the calamari next time. I tried some of the seafood pasta, and it was good as well. The lemon sauce emulsion for the bread was my favorite thing there! The dessert was very good. The menu prices might be on the higher end, but the quality, ambiance, service, and vibe make it worth trying.
A memorable experience and delicious food. Or had a beautiful smoked pork chop with quince paste and started with octopus. The meal was absolutely delicious and we chose the wine pairing which was perfect. Our server was attentive and helpful and the entire staff was professional. We were able to finish our meal with music in the bar at the hotel to round out a lovely evening. We're locals and always enjoy Dry Creek Kitchen
I have found the best lasagna i have every tasted. It reminded me of the greek pastichio. Great portion size, not to saucy, perfect balance and portion of meat and cream sauce (bechamel). Its like a boutique restaurant, wonderful place, definitely has the italian vibe to it on a modern scale. Love it!
From the time I first learned of this restaurant I wanted to go. Yesterday, I was in the city and my feet brought me here. The ambiance was perfect for a pre theater dinner or just a peaceful moment away from the grind of the city. Prices for me, a non-city dweller, were higher than normal but I saw a menu for a pre fixe meal and went for it. I had what I thought was a traditional Russian meal which consisted of an appetizer of: Vinegret; Entrée of Beef Stroganoff, Dessert of Smetannik Cake and a Hot Russian Tea with whole cherry 🍒 preserves with lemon & honey 🍯 😋. It was a very tasty meal but for me i thought the portions were a tad small on the Entrée and dessert though at my age it was probably just right. The meal was extremely tasty with flavors I never imagined to be able to taste. The live piano music was just perfect for any reason that brought you here. My rating is low only because I expect more on my plate. Service was great and I love that it is a family run business that has its roots and traditions set in the Ukraine 🇺🇦 as well as Russian heritage. I highly recommend this restaurant for all the flavors and heritage they have brought to the United States 🇺🇸 of America.
Excellent food and service. Great views!! We even spotted a bear in the neighboring field!! Highly recommended.

We went for the first time earlier this year but left a bit disappointed. Presentation, flavor and service were all pretty good but none were outstanding. The lamb was great but the tofu dish was very bland.

I felt that it had less of an anniversary dinner vibe and more of a business execs going to dinner vibe.

It didn't help matters that they completely overhauled their menu two days before our meal and many of the dishes I was eyeing ahead of time were missing in action.

I would give it another try at some point, but not in a hurry.

Popped in for breakfast and was able to grab a seat at the bar right away. Came here with a few friends and Angela our bartender was absolutely amazing, attentive and had a friendly personality. I ordered the Eggs Benedict and the Salmon Bagel which were both delicious! I tried the Passion Fruit Mimosa and the Bloody Mary with Titos and requested it with a half salt & pepper rim job (both were nice and boozy) and they were great! I left very happy. It's always nice when you can get great drinks and food at one location. Would definitely come back for breakfast/ brunch while in town.
This is the BEST authentic Russian restaurant! If you go on Friday night there will be a few gentleman playing instruments and singing traditional Russian songs. The food is delicious and so is the tea and dessert. If you want to experience how the Russians party this is a must! I do recommend making a reservation because they get filled quick.
Was my first time here and I thought it was a good overall experience. Food seemed authentic so it does live up to its name. Staff may not be the most warm, free flowing, but they mean well. And frankly I think it’s more of a cultural thing. Anyway, if you’re interested in some authentic Russian food, this is your spot.
Always wanted to stop by and check out the place. We had some fried calamari and kind of Burrata salad which was fresh and tasty. For the main dish we ordered seafood pasta and ravioli and both of them were amazing! Atmosphere and service is great as well. Price is little overpriced as like in every restaurant in NYC but good thing is that you will get quality food

Scrumptious doesn't even begin to explain how delicious everything was here. We thoroughly enjoyed every dish, beverage and dessert. Suzanna was extremely helpful, helping us decide what to order. She was also very friendly and funny. The atmosphere is upscale yet comfortable. The entire staff was helpful, friendly and professional. Our complaints to the chef!

We were shocked at how amazing this place was! I got the haddock that was on special, my boyfriend got the house burger, we shared the potato skins for an appetizer, and the caramel cheesecake for dessert. It was all amazing! The food tasted all so fresh and flavors were amazing. Cocktails were also delicious! Would definitely recommend :)

Comfortable outdoor lunch seating and service. Friendly and attentive service. Carpaccio was very nice and would order again. Artichoke and zucchini was a bit mushy but tasty. Mushroom soup good but chicken pillard was a tough texture. Excellent fresh bread!
Visited this area in May and wanted to dine at the Tavern at Sunset Hill but couldn't find the menu/pricing anywhere. The pictures on Google maps look wonderful.
Lovely place, stunning views East of White Mountains of NH, and West over Vermont. British owners and their wait staff were friendly, personable, competent, and considerate. Food was well prepared, tastey, attractively presented, and served promptly. Dining environment was warm and cosy in the simply decorated 1800s building. No obnoxious music. Just a bit of a loud air exchange unit in the corner. Large picture windows gave all seating views of the White Mountains. My wife and I were there on July 1 from dusk until close, with a rain and lightning storm as special effects. Very nice.
