Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in Victorian Village

What a fantastic experience! The restaurant has such a comfortable vibe. All that’s missing is a hearth and a roaring fire. The service was excellent! The food was amazing! We started with the full charcuterie, which was delicious. All of our meals were so flavorful and beautifully presented. Shrimp and grits, lamb shank, short ribs, and fried chicken. The pumpkin spice crème brûlée was a great way to end the meal. We cannot wait to come back for another great experience!

Amazing dining experience! Our server Felicia was fantastic. Very kind, patient, and helpful with ordering. Breakfast was outstanding. The ambiance was very cozy on a winter morning with music soft enough to have good conversation.

First time here. We came in for brunch and we loved what we had. We had the she crab soup….delicious! We also had the crab Benedict and Buttermilk chicken. It was all really good! The only reason we left before having one more cup of the great coffee was the girl three tables down popping her gum. Not the restaurants fault, but we almost went over to her and asked her if she was enjoying her gum. Very nice place and they still have less than classy people coming in.

There are many steakhouses , but there is only one HYDE PARK DOWNTOWN. We have been dining there for many years, and have never been disappointed. We’ll be back soon!

Kudos to Forno for creating a fun seasonal pop-up speakeasy in the basement for the holidays. Decorations, including vintage video, set the mood for apres-ski R&R. Special themed drinks were great, especially the espresso martinis, and the six of us devoured the fondue. Would've been nice if they'd offered a couple more menu items like personal-size pizzas/flatbread from the kitchen upstairs, and maybe a little bigger assortment of dipping items for the cheese fondue than just orange cubed bell pepper, bread, and apple slices (maybe more fruit?), but the whole experience was enjoyable on our pop-up pub crawl.
