This was the second time we went to this place. First time was about 10 years ago. We left not impressed and decided was not worth it. This time we thought may be they might have improved. But, the food quality/ taste was average with below average service. I ordered a scotch on rocks. The drink had 3 flies in it. When brought to their attention. The server apologized & got me another drink. And, my bill had charge for 2 drinks. I questioned the charge. And, was told they will remove this second drink. I explained well actually this is my first drink since the first order had bugs in it.
Definitely not worth the money you spend for below par food & service.

Great meal. Party of five and all thoroughly enjoyed appetizers and entrees. Bread service and sweet corn crème brûlée were unique and delicious.

WOW , we went with a party of five for my wife’s birthday and were blown away by the food and service , we started with the Fig and Pig , 717 Goyza and the arancini bon bon appetizers, then the chef bought us out a plate of his gnocchi with truffles and all of the plates were delicious and we devoured them all. Dinner was next and we ordered the 717 steakhouse burgers , the Whiskey Pig and the Pasta Verde and a side of the cream corn brûlée. The food portions were huge and all were perfectly seasoned. We all had plenty of leftovers to take home . Chef Robert then bought out a dessert for my wife which he made for her , I can’t even explain it but all I can say is it was incredible. The chef sat with us and explained each dish and had a great conversation with us on his vision of the restaurant, we will definitely be going back there and we highly recommend this place .

We had a 12 top in the private room and even though the service and venue were phenomena, they served me a very rare, almost raw steak and instead of making me a new one they scorched it when they put it back on the grill and it was Grey and char tasting when I ate it. Not sure if I will go back because any high standard restaurant would have provided a new steak.

We had brunch on Jan. 7 and it was wonderful! Pancake and Old Man and the Sea smoked salmon breakfast arrived on short order and were prepared perfectly. The ambience on 717 makes the dining experience even better!

Anthony was great! Gave us some pretty good recommendations. The food was great. The bread appetizer was my favorite and the pork chop was amazing. Will definitely be returning.

We have been wanting to try this place out for a long time. Finally got over on a Saturday afternoon but didn't realize it was a brunch menu (mostly breakfast items). Not really our jam for that day but we needed to eat. The food was fine but it was average. We were really wanting to try their seafood plates and might return but the overall experience was nothing impressive so we might focus on other places we want to try first.
