Respectfully, it is just not good. Food is just paired in a wierd way. Flavorless. For the price you expect better. Our waiter had dirty hands and the kitchen is just not clean. It's cute place. But do no recommend and won't be going again.

Neat place to have dinner. Tapas style, we picked the wrong items and were envious of our company’s choices. lol. Service was very attentive.

First off, I knew this place would be mind blowing, I love the "sister" restaurants. Tabula has a wonderful staff whom we have become friends with. We come here for most special events because they go above and beyond to make them extra special. Then there is the food, wow spectacular, tasty little masterpieces. I suggest you book a date night here.

We were highly recommended to try Tabula Rasa but I knew I was in trouble as soon as I opened the menu and seen things like octopus, wild boar, and oysters but what really surprised me was the lack of any normal dining options for people that don't like over the top things. $500 later my wife and I were still hungry and hit up the Wendy's drive-thru on our way home. One piece of advice to the management you should look into replacing the cheap battery operated touch lamps on the tables that was turned off a dozen times because we kept bumping it when we were moving the food around the tiny table

Went for Vday 6-course meal and both my wife and I were left pretty disappointed. First, the service isn't great and not what you'd expect at a place like this. Took 10 minutes to be greeted at our table, and while our server was very nice, the service lacked the refinement you'd expect at a more expensive place. Take Nola, for example--similar prices and vibe, but extremely attentive and they notice everything, like the need for new cutlery when the next dish comes out. The food was a mix of good, okay, and bad. Not really feeling like I want to come back unless the regular menu is much better (though I'm worried about the service in future visits). Would love for this place to do well, but can't recommend it based on my visit.

I only have one word to describe this place: SLOPPY! Food and drinks sound good on paper but wasn’t exactly fine dining. Me and my gf ordered scallops, lamb and pasta. Scallops were ok. Lamb was excessively salty that combined with the smoke coming out of the kitchen was enough to make us cancel the pasta and just leave to save what was left of our night. I am too lazy to get into the drinks so I’ll just say if you like to overpay. This is your place. Service was good. The only reason they got an extra star for me.

A great restaurant. We went prior to our reservation to sit in the lounge (Speakeasy style) for a cocktail then dinner in the restaurant. Both were excellent. Tapas or shared plate style food. The cauliflower was quite excellent.

Enjoyed a nice dinner here.This was my second visit.The first time I came I was very impressed with the crispy potatoes. (5 stars)This time the potatoes though good, just weren't crispy enough. (4 stars)The menu is ever changing with different variations. My first visit it was bison tartare, this time it was venison.The rabbit roulade was our 5 star item.The other items we ordered got 4 stars (scallop crudo, Lions mane mushrooms).I'm hoping for consistency so will definitely be trying the potatoes on the next visit to figure out that verdict.

Pleasant and cozy spot, drinks were decent, extremely slow between courses. Service was absolutely awful, our server was rude, unpleasant and unprofessional. We were so excited to visit for the first time but will not be going back.

Found the perfect spot for a chill date night.. The vibes are super relaxed, creating a laid-back atmosphere that's ideal for unwinding. The food? Top-notch – flavors on point. The service is what you hope for on a date night – attentive but not overbearing. If you're after a place that nails the whole date night vibe with great food, this spot checks all the boxes.

We had dinner on the Solera side with friends, and really enjoyed it. We ordered some items off the Solera seafood tapas menu, and some off the Tabula Rasa menu, based on helpful recommendations from our server. Each dish was good - some really good. Definitely recommend the venison/elk carpaccio, and the ceviche.Back to the service - we all agreed that our server is quite possibly the best server we've ever had in any restaurant. She was the perfect mix of helpful, funny, quick, attentive, etc... Our friends had her before, and felt that way the prior time - so this was no fluke. Sadly, I don't remember her name! She is a blond lady who tends to serve on the Solera side. If you go, cross your fingers you get her - she is amazing!As for the atmosphere, there is a distinct difference - the Solera side is jam-packed with people and relatively noisy from all the conversations. Not a criticism - just something to help you choose. The Tabula Rasa side is much quieter, and more of a typical restaurant atmosphere.Back to the busy-ness; note this is a VERY popular place on weekends, so be sure to make a reservation (and keep it!). Highly recommended place.
