Really great spot! Made a reservation for a party of 6 and they were able to seat us right away. Tiffany, our server, was very knowledgeable and helpful (and personable!).
The food was cooked very well and everyone was happy with what they got.
The atmosphere and decor is a cool vibe. The “couch” seating is very structured, so it was a a good set up.

Leo the Sous Chef overcooked our steak. Service was amazing but we won’t be back.

The atmosphere is cool and could be so amazing. It seems like a leadership issue as the staff was so disengaged at 6pm on a Friday and we were the first two people in the building. Someone needs to care on the management team soon as things don’t look good. To be honest, even if this is there level of good (hope not) it could be so much better. These dishes are pretty simple and need to be stepped up. Someone needs to greet people with a smile. Maybe walk outside and make eye contact with potential customers.

Went on Sunday night, only a few tables occupied yet they sat us all on one side, so no privacy. I thought food was good but quantity very small for price. For this size, prices should be $10-12, instead of $15-18. Also did not care they let a friend come in with a large Doberman and sat right beside us. Wasn't a service dog. Cool building though.

The food was delicious - easily one of the tastiest nights out I’ve had in awhile! The crispy potatoes were quite possibly the crispiest and fluffiest ever, and the lemon aioli was a perfect balance to the savory. The lamb lollies were tender and well-seasoned. However service was slow - my husband and I ordered the bread plus 3 shareables, and we did not get the last two dishes until 50-60min after we ordered - I suppose the waitress thought we looked like we were waiting for something but didn’t realize what, because came to ask if we were ready to order dessert, before we got our food. Also, we sat with empty water for a solid 15 minutes. I know it was a busy Saturday night, but other (4-top and 8-top that we saw) tables ordered after us and were brought food sooner. It was delicious enough that we’ll gladly go again though, maybe on a weeknight.

I appreciate that they were able to seat our table of 3 on a Friday night with no reservation. Since it was a weekend, I anticipated that the kitchen would be quite busy, but I did not expect to wait as long as we did for our food. At first we were sat outside, but decided to move to the bar since it was about to rain. This was within the first 5 minutes of our arrival. We also placed our whole order very quickly. I saw the server put our order into the device as we spoke to her. This could not have been any later than 7:30PM (we cross-reference with when we paid for parking and walked over). Once we were seated at the bar and finally got drinks, we ended up waiting one whole hour for the BREAD. This is not an exaggeration. We asked the bartender at least twice about it. The first time we were told that it was left out of the order when it was initially taken. Second time, we were told it was still in the oven. When it finally came out, it was just ok. I was having serious doubts about even staying for the rest of the meal but we were reassured that the rest of the food order was definitely in the system and that they were working on it. I also knew that, since it's restaurant weekend, we probably wouldn't find an open spot elsewhere. My entree came out a few minutes after the bread. The other 2 entrees for our party came out about 25 minutes after that. Mine just sat there, untouched. I won't lie, when I finally did eat it, it was pretty good, even though it was cold. I got the gnocchi. I also tried the beef and potatoes and those were also good. None of it was good enough to be worth the wait and poor service though. If I had confidence that this is a one off event, then I might recommend it to others solely based on the food. However, given the way our night went, I cannot recommend this to others. I feel that my time was totally wasted.

The food here is inventive, seasonal, and flavorful. I came for brunch and the spanakopita quiche was amazing. Fluffy interior, crunchy pastry. The asparagus salad was one of the best salads of my life! It’s a beautiful space, very relaxing, great service.

Recently visited this place while in town on vacation. Everything about the experience was amazing! Really lovely wine selection, great ambiance, and most importantly, the food was 10/10. I especially loved the ricotta gnocchi but the carrots were stellar too. Major compliments to the chef-lots of creativity in menu items, and perfect execution.
Can’t wait to visit again

Tiffany our server is an absolute gem, her knowledge of the menu was amazing. Very attentive to our needs. Food was amazing, calamari was the best we had since NY. Curean will be one of our regular stops.

Man, really great experience. Greek plattera and Lamb lollipops are a must. We had all deserts but Gellatto...do that.

I usually don’t criticize but this is just a constructive review. Food was good. Service was not. Cake fee is $5 per person which is little high. I feel it should be $3. Plus part of service we didn’t even receive plates for cake. We are it directly from cake stand.
I think certain areas needs to evaluated.

We had a wonderful experience at The Curean with Celia. She was attentive and able to meet our every request and even offered/brought extra bread for our apps since we had such a large group sharing things. The pacing was great, we never had more than 3-4 plates on the table but we never had an empty table either. We tried one of everything on the shareable menu. The standouts were the potatoes, carrots, olives, pasta verde, calamari, and lamb. 7 of us shared everything and I don’t think you’d want a much bigger group than that for that type of experience. Drinks were phenomenal and the mocktail offering was robust and far above the normal ginger beer with whatever fruit juice the restaurant has. This was not my first visit and certainly will not be my last either. Thank you for your hospitality!
