    We really enjoyed our dinner at Hideout Kitchen. My husband had the chicken pot pie, it was delicious crust puffy and crispy the chicken and vegetables were plentiful and in a great sauce. My friend had the seafood stew plenty of seafood and good sauce. Dish needed a nice piece of garlic bread to finish it off. I had the Pasta Puttanesca it was very tasty but it needed a nice piece of garlic bread to finish off the dish. Service was very attentive and good. My friend and my husband shared a Churro waffle with Carmel dipping sauce. They said it was great. I had the lemon tart which said it had granola and strawberries on top. The granola covered the whole top of the tart the strawberries were little freeze dried pieces. The granola had a savory taste and green pieces of it mixed in the granola I did not care for the spice was over powering. very little lemon curd We would come back to eat here again. I just would not order the lemon tart again.

    Food and service was great. Christmas eve is usually a fixed menu which is notmally a standard menu item. This was surprising as the regular menu was being offered we sdrived a little early and we were seated but not rused every item was hot and fresh and the service is what we have come to expect great all around

    Reve is such a local gem. Excellent service, prompt and efficient. They nailed the moules frites and and scallop risotto. Very easy to make pretty good, it takes skill to make it sublime. A round of clicks for the chef!

    The food was outstanding. Not many people in restaurant, but enough. Only one person serving the tables…NOT ENOUGH! He tried and was gracious but couldn’t meet the demand well. The music was extremely loud. All that said, we would absolutely return!
