The Conservatory offers a welcoming and upscale atmosphere, with a pleasant ambiance featuring water fountains, greenery, and pretty lights. The restaurant's three-course prix fixe menu during restaurant week provides a variety of options, and the portions are surprisingly large. Guests praise the attentive service, delicious espresso martinis, and the overall quality of the food, including the crab cakes and Caesar salad. However, some reviewers note that the food preparation can be slow, and the temperature and taste of certain dishes, such as the steak and salads, may be disappointing. While the Conservatory may not be the best option for a fine dining experience, it is still considered a suitable choice for a casual yet fancy gathering, especially for enjoying the bar and the design of the space.
