We went for my wife's birthday. The food and server were both excellent. We started with their seafood tower that was customized to our likes and it was great. My wife had the scallops and she said they were probably the best she had ever had. I had the strip steak which was done to perfection with great flavor. Rose was our server and she did an excellent job in giding us through the meal. In all, it was a very good experience.

As with any diner, you feel immediately comfortable and at ease. Like no other diner, it’s artsy and cool.

The Cap City menu follows suit, with recognizable favorites like meatloaf receiving unexpected and delightful upscale twists, alongside trendier chef-driven dishes with big flavors. Desserts at this Cameron Mitchell Restaurant are retro-cool, taste better than you remember, and are showstopper-sized.

It was a lovely dinner with scrumptious food, excellent service, and attentive wait staff. We thoroughly enjoyed the ambiance with the live piano player entertaining everyone with classic Christmas songs!! Everything was on point!! We were even surprised with a treat for dessert to celebrate our anniversary! So sweet! Can’t wait to return!

It was cute- there were no pictures taken of us or anything outside of some decorations and table service. I heard other locations had pictures, music and a bustling atmosphere- so may try a different location another time. The tables had plastic tablecloths and the battery operated candles and they had some decorations. Someone brought in takeout from another restaurant to give to someone working.

My wife & I always book The Keep when we come downtown for a show at the Palace Theatre because it’s so convenient: parking easy, solid dining experience, and right next to the Theatre. Greg our server who has taken good care of us many times before did a nice juggling between tables on an extremely busy night. The Chef and his team did a nice job serving up hot our tasty meals too. We’ll be back!

That’s the kind of experience that inspires every dish on our menu at Spaghetti Warehouse. No wonder our Guests keep coming back for so many Spaghetti Warehouse specialties, from Our Incredible 15-Layer Lasagna to Spaghetti & Meatballs, Beer Chili to Fettuccini Alfredo, Chicken Parmigiana to Spicy Shrimp Al Fresco Pasta.

My two granddaughters and I had a very good experience at spaghetti warehouse. We were on our way to see the Nutcracker and we wanted to try the spaghetti warehouse. Food was delicious. Everything was a OK. Towards the end of the evening though it did get pretty loud. But the open ceilings I can understand there would be a lot of noise. But we had a wonderful time.
