So happy we found Cafe Whitney! The food was amazing and the service was very friendly and efficient! Many thanks to Brian!

We left the chaos of The Street to enjoy this gem of a dining experience, just across the street from the Silver Legacy. The food here is much better and more refined than the Street food, so don't worry about whether it will be good. There's ample variety from which to choose, and the service is excellent.

I feel like they were short-staffed. Our dirty dishes weren't cleared, the orders were either not correct or delayed. We had to request beverage refills. The saving grace was an unrequested deep, deep discount. In addition, the waiter and others were very pleasant while trying to serve numerous folks. I will return but not on a holiday.

Food was excellent server was attentive and very good spirits made the dinner enjoyable. Flatbread pizza was amazing as was everything else.

I spilled wine on my white sweater and they went above and beyond to help me and actually got the stain out. The food was great and everyone was kind.

I booked a reservation for my fiancé and I for Valentine's Day. Immediately received a friendly greeting at the door which was opened for us and walked into a very nice hotel lobby. The restaurant was to the left and the host was very welcoming! He sat us at our table and our waiter Brandon came over. Immediately we could tell that he was a kind and respectful man. Brandon made kind comments about my outfit and the importance of our time always having such a positive and kind response to everything. After we ordered and got our food we were given time to ourselves which was greatly appreciated. The food was amazing my fiancé had the Orzo Scampi and I had the 8 oz flat iron steak. It isn't often my fiancé clears off most of her plate but tonight she did. Even after we ate and paid we were still topped off on our drinks when needed and spent time in the romantic atmosphere together. We left talking about how much we'd like to have another important date night with Cafe Whitney. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone who is thinking about a date night here!

My girlfriend and I had the most incredible Christmas Dinner. The staff were exceptional and had interesting/fun personalities too. The food was amazing, especially the pecan brownie dessert. Would 100% come back. One of the rare instances where a $20+ entree is well worth the price.

Went here for New Year's Eve brunch.... 11:30an... olace was empty when we arrived.... We were seated promptly... my son and his friend ordered the double 1/4 pound burger with all the toppings .. we waited over 45 minutes for our food.. place was empty.. our food was ready and sitting under the warmer to be served. I went to the counter to retrieve our food and the hostess said she was getting ranch dressing for my daughter. She could have served the food and gotten the dressing afterwards.. burgers weren't as stated on the menu.. they got 1 burger .. they said the description of the burger changed on the menu and didn't tell us.. fries were cold.. I got the turkey club which was good.. but fries were cold after our food sat in the warmer for 45 minutes... waitress checked on us once ... awful service.. menu deceptive...

This place should not have "cafe" in it. This restaurant feels high end and has quite a few gluten free options for the sensitive eaters. I enjoyed the halibut and my husband enjoyed the spare ribs. Highly recommend for a date night!!! Great cocktail list as well and happy hour during the week from 4-6!

Exceptionally good food that was in no way priced the way you'd expect such good food in such a nice restaurant. 10/10 am coming back. The chicken picatta was outstanding.

What a stunning dining environment!! Great dishes! Awesome happy hour options! Excellent service. I super love to open kitchen concept! Can’t wait to go back!
Pork belly ramen: SENSATIONAL!
Carrot cake slice was massive and a bit dry in my opinion.
Server made my dining experience exceptional! Thanks🙂

I think it's a bit pricey, but for a limited time on Tuesdays, the burger and beer is a bargain at $12.99.
The taste is also delicious.

I had high hopes given the photos and reviews, but tonight's food was an absolute miss. I travel for a living and this might be some of the worst I've had. The tuna poke is an absolute DO NOT ORDER. If I could give it zero stars I would. It was like biting into pure salt. The cucumber tasted old and like dirt. I'm not even sure how to describe the imitation crab other than salt and really spongy (more so than it usually is) and also just tasted really old. And it was $18! I got it to go and ate it 5 minutes later when I got upstairs to my room. If I wasn't already not feeling well, I'd go back downstairs and take it back.

I also got the Crème Brule. It was mediocre at best and had a weird chemical after taste. I wouldn't recommend it either.

The staff was super friendly but the food here is a disaster.
