Horrible service. Legit waited 45 minutes for our food and the food was super mid. Prolly never going back. Way too expensive as well and also ordered mash potatoes and NEVER got them. 1/5 star. Don't go here.

My husband and I went to Matisse for Restaurant Week. The specialty cocktails and food are very good, with generous portions of food. The service is the best I have experienced in a long time, with the pacing of the food coming out being just right. Water always quickly refilled, the minute you look around like you need something, your server (or other staffer) is asking how they can help. The atmosphere is definitely loud. It is a small space and the tables are close, but it has a wonderful vibe and we spoke to the folks at our neighboring tables at bit. Highly recommend!

The house made ginger beer takes the mules to the next level. Plus their appetizers are delicious!

Went on a Saturday night during Restaurant Week and it is an excellent value. Had the Cuban Spiced Won-Tons (1st course), Oven Roasted Salmon w/ asparagus & potatoes (Entree), the Crazy Cheesecake all for $42. When I tell you that they know what they're doing in that kitchen, believe me. It was much better food, freshness and flavors than I was expecting We sat at the bar and our server/bartender could not have been better. The perfect amount of attentiveness without being too much in your mix. He even hooked us up with a lemon drop shot for the road (Sorry no pictures but as I said, this place exceeded my expectations so I wasn't expecting to do a review. Then I tried the food and here we are)

I rarely rate a restaurant 5 stars. I worked in the service industry for over 10 years and tend to be very critical. This restaurant deserves all 5 stars!! Food is spectacular, very flavorful and always tastes extremely fresh. My favorite, but not limited too, is their club sandwich, Mac n cheese with Steak, their Steak Sandwich, burgers, and their Brussel sprouts app. I LOVE their steak. It's cooked to perfection every time - nice and tender. Their burgers are huge and they have a variety of ways to dress it up. My boyfriend and I consistently order from here. Whether it's for carry out or to dine in, both don't disappoint! As far as atmosphere goes, they have a wonderful patio that's lit up and has heaters in the fall. Their interior space is tight but it they make it work. It does not feel like you're on top of the nearby tables. It's cozy in a good way. All the staff I've interacted with are so kind and pleasant. Seriously, give this place a try if you're in the area!! I can't rave about it enough!
