    Had a wonderful experience at Chophouse! We were seated a few minutes early for our reservation. The singer in the bar was wonderful. We split the lyonnaise, asparagus, and salad. My husband had a delmonico steak and I had a filet. Melt in your mouth good. We will be back!

    Enjoyed our dining experience at RedFish last night however the musician outside playing in the street was excessively loud and right in front of the windows. I feel bad for the establishment because had we not had a reservation I would have quickly moved past it to a quieter location. Luckily we were seated in the back and could not hear it too much. Service and dinner was exceptional - loved the cornbread !!

    Food and service were exceptional. We had the ceviche’ and lobster ravioli appetizers then ordered Hallibut with scallops and shrimp risotto — the signature dish — and the Parmesan-crusted sheepshead with lemon butter and browned capers served either asparagus as our main courses. Everything was perfectly prepared! We ordered 3 desserts to top it all off: the salty malty ice cream pie, the white chocolate bread pudding and the chocolate mouse in a dark chocolate dome with raspberry gelee’. Perfect evening. Except for learning at the end of the night that our parking would not be validated. We were not told to bring the parking ticket to the front desk at the beginning of the night. If you go to GW Finn’s and expect to get parking validated, do not pay the garage when you park (despite the fact that all of the signs in the garage and the boots on cars are somewhat threatening in there). Instead, take your unpaid parking garage ticket directly to the front desk at the restaurant for validation with a picture of your license plate. This was the only sour note of our evening. Otherwise, it was perfect!

    - shrimp and grits very well seasoned - duck confit good balance of sweet savory - ambiance lovely, but I read somewhere there was jazz during lunch and it seemed very muted, but maybe that’s just me - service was exceptional! our server Chris kept checking in on us and went above and beyond.
