The dishes I tried were absolutely fantastic. Truly fantastic — not just “good” or “very tasty,” but the kind of food that makes you pause and simply enjoy the moment.
I want to give special recognition to our server, Paul. Honestly, I have never met anyone like him — you could make a movie about this person.
He remembered that two weeks ago my daughter had been here and that she follows a gluten-free diet. Without hesitation, he immediately explained which dishes contained gluten and which did not. The level of attention to detail, care, and genuine friendliness was remarkable. This is not something you can fake or teach — no amount of money could buy this kind of service. It’s a true gift.
Thank you to this place for allowing me to spend my birthday here.
Have a wonderful year, my friends.

This place is the tits. Select staff members worked at up and coming restaurant in rising sun Maryland when they got their first Michelin star. Order anything in silver bowl. Stay after hours for staff hunt. The cat came back.

The oysters tasted like they had been shucked and left in a refrigerator for ages. The presentation of the food did not match the taste or quality. The atmosphere was warm but stuffy.

Gone are the days of Danny Meyer hospitality I guess. The ambiance this time was as nice as I always remember it to be, and the first couple appetizers were alright, but the service was questionable, with wine spilled over our cutlery and in our water and several misunderstandings throughout the evening. We then received a pork chop that was literally raw, and their only offer of recovery was to reheat the raw pork, which we had already sliced. What a disappointment.

Stacy is the best! She's been my waitress the last few times I've been here and she always is so attentive and brings such positive energy, attentiveness and enthusiasm. We didn't have a ton of time before a show and she timing everything perfectly for us and gave us great recommendations! Thank you, Stacy, you are such a great representative for the USHG brand!

One of the trend setting American restaurants that has been around for forty years is still serving delicious and inspired food. From the delicious bread to the excellent chocolate cake all of the food was flawless. Feels as of the moment as it did in the 1980s. Also a shout out to the the excellent service. Our server was fabulous.
