MEAL is a family-friendly restaurant that offers great food, drinks, and friendly service. The atmosphere is beautiful and relaxing, with a vibe that feels open yet private. The menu features a variety of dishes, including aged steaks, lamb chops, pork chops, seafood, fish, and more. Standout dishes include the delicious French onion soup and short ribs, which are known for being flavorful, tender, and juicy. The restaurant has a modern, chic decor, with a relaxing yet lively environment that can be a little noisy due to music and hard surfaces. The staff is attentive, providing excellent, clear service. The portions are generous, and the presentation is always fresh and appealing. The price is comparable to the area, making MEAL a great addition to the local dining scene. Guests can enjoy a welcoming host, a relaxing dining room, and a separate bar area. Though the menu is not extensive, it offers plenty of delicious options, and reservations are easy to make. The vibe is relaxed but still gives a business casual feel, perfect for a business meeting or catching up with friends. The appetizer selection is great, and the desserts are even better, with the Smores dessert being a standout. The only downside is the lighting, which can be a bit too dark, requiring the use of phone lights to read the menu. Overall, MEAL provides a wonderful dining experience that is worth the price.
