The food was awesome as always. The menu changes from time to time and that is really helpful to try new cutting edge dishes. The host, wait, and management staff are all great. The cooks are fantastic. One person that always stands out is Vanessa B. She is fantastic and always goes beyond to help guest and make the experience more impactful.

This wonderful full service restaurant offers a wide range of excellently prepared American food. The restaurant is of high quality and befitting its place in a presidential museum. Servers are very courteous, friendly and very efficient. We are regular customers and have always enjoyed this dining experience. I wish it would remain open during the evening.

We were not expecting the level of delicious food that was brought to the table. Vanessa was our waitress and she was amazing. The staff was very attentive to our needs, refills and empty plates were constantly being monitored. What a gem in the heart of SMU.

All staff exceptionally pleasant. We celebrated our 43rd wedding anniversary and it was memorable to celebrate it there. Thanks again to all for making it special!

Great vibe, the servants are very nice and food is good! For visitors who come for the presidential center, this is a good place to eat a brunch before the visit.

Sadly, the restaurant is now closed on Sundays, even though the Google Maps listing says it's open from. With no other place to eat at the Presidential library, we were forced to leave to find food and return to finish our visit through the museum.

Came for a celebration dinner. Free valet service with reservations, which was lovely. We were seated right away, but the tables were very close to each other. The restaurant was very cold and other women were also having to put on a sweater. The food was cooked well. Mushrooms were wonderful. Steak had no seasoning but was cooked nicely. The appetizers and desserts were delicious. Water glasses were kept full. Friendly and unobtrusive service.
Atmosphere is lovely, quiet and serene. I was only disappointed that there was no vegetarian option. At my last visit, there was a wonderful cauiflower entre'. This time, nothing on the menu. I ended up getting the caesar salad x 2 for my lunch, which worked out great.

A somewhat sterile, institutional environment befitting a library...could be softened with plants and decor. Food was OK but not great.

Our experience could not have been better. The crab salad was a treat and the Reuben was special. Vanessa was an amazing server and if you are lucky she will be yours. The McMillians

Such a serene and restful setting for lunch at the GWB Presidential Library! Sandwiches were delicious, service was quick and attentive. Fruit salad was a lovely assortment and some of the freshest I've had in a restaurant. Mandatory tipping for a party of 5 is annoying and should be communicated more clearly online and in the menu. The cowboy cookies were a little on the dry side but the ice cream was able to provide what was lacking. Overall, a great experience!
