    The food was delicious! We had the beef kabobs as an appetizer. Our entrees were seabass and the lamb chops. We finished the meal with the cinnamon roll bread pudding. All was excellent! The service was top notch. Alec did a wonderful job!

    My husband and I dined at Betty on Burke for the first time on Valentine’s Day in the afternoon. The food was delicious and the service was excellent! There were sound cushions on the ceiling helping with the noise level. My husband absolutely hates when a restaurant is so loud that you cannot even hear the conversation at your own table which was not the case at Betty on Burke. This is a small but intimate restaurant with a trendy vibe. We would definitely recommend this restaurant and plan to return in the near future!

    My friend and I had a wonderful dinner here last night. We ordered the pork belly and salmon skewers as a starter and then had the Mussels, Wedge Salad and Mac and Cheese which were all delicious. We had great service with Chris who was very attentive and professional. He introduced us to the sommelier for wine assistance as well. We really appreciated having a knowledgeable “wine guy” on staff. He even answered questions beyond the menu. He was enthusiastic, friendly and made a good recommendation based on our taste preference. (Sorry we do not remember his name or I would give him a shout out!) The small things from a service perspective were noticed. We had leftovers which Chris took away and boxed up for us. This is a great touch beyond handing your guest a box and having them do it themselves. He also took away my friend’s mussel shells mid-meal so she could continue with a nice clean bowl. We will be back again! Thanks for a great dinner and for having a wonderful staff who greatly added to our experience!

    We went for an early Valentine's. Excellent service and food. We particularly enjoyed our wine cocktails and entrees. The short ribs with mashed potatoes & roasted root veggies were amazing. The steak was the most tender New York strip I've had and was peppercorn cream sauce was delicious. The pecan bread pudding was a beautiful and tasty conclusion to our meal.
