On Tuesday, we took my daughter and her boyfriend to The Cardinal for a special dinner. Everything was spectacular from the moment we walked through the front doors until the time we left we had a couple of drinks at the bar before sitting at our table. The bartender was amazing! She had a fantastic personality. Did a great job. The drinks were wonderful. We really enjoyed talking with her. We were seated at her table, came over promptly and was as equally as friendly and nice...read full review
Great dining experience last night. Exceptional service from Katie and Tristan. Food was fresh and delicious.
My family and I have enjoyed visiting the Cardinal for its fine food, libations and especially the personal service we receive from Marco. He is attentive and friendly, adding to the wonderful experience we have whenever we visit.

The penne pasta with tomato cream sauce is also noted for being really good. The crab dip and herb butter with sourdough bread are described as excellent, enhancing the overall experience.
Customers appreciate the diverse menu, with options like the steak Philly salad and chicken Genevieve being noted for their taste. The margarita pizza, while sauce heavy, has its fans, although some suggest it could use more cheese and basil. The restaurant is recognized for its fresh food and great service, with many regulars making it a lively neighborhood spot. Despite the wait time potentially reaching ten to fifteen minutes due to its popularity, guests agree that it is worth the wait. With reasonable prices, this neighborhood restaurant is a fantastic place for a night out and comes highly recommended for family and friends.
