“So many enjoyable aspects! I really wanted to love the broccoli melt, and perhaps my comments are limited to my experience ... the hoagie roll was several steps beyond a nice chew. It was hard. And the roasted broccoli was just barely roasted. Will try again. With those two adjustments, I am sure it is outstanding.“

“Food was all perfect - love the blue cheese dressing on the romaine wedge salad and Branzino and other guests were very happy with their meals - lamb shanks, salmon, and seafood tortellini. Waitress Mandy was excellent. Really appreciated that we could reserve a table for a regular time rather than specific New Year's Eve seatings and it was no problem to be out of there before their 1 3/4 -2 hour time limit for the special night, even with dessert and apps. Multi-racial clientele and good jazz over the sound system.“

“After my wife and I walked our aardvark (a long story for another time) around 4th St , we attempted to stop in to Society for a quick nightcap for ourselves and we hoped to score a suet snack for Antony (see aardvark, above). We were understandably turned away; they have rules.

After stashing Antony in a safe place, we returned and were joyfully greeted by Austin (or was it Lubbock? My memory fades.) who carefully concocted a delightful cocktail with Creme de Violette as the star ingredient.

A delightful time. Also, don't trust Society, she'll break your heart.“

“Had the best time last week. Some friends of mine and I reserved a table and even though the front door had a huge line we were brought right to our table without waiting more than a minute. Our servers name was Kelli and she did an amazing job, kept us company always made sure we had drinks, really made our time there enjoyable. To top it off the manager came and introduced herself to everyone (her name was Bella) even with how busy it was just by doing that she made us feel like appreciated customers! Will definitely be returning and recommending to all my friends!“
