    David is an excellent and kind server, as were his helpers. Completely smooth and attentive experience. Food was delicious, as always! We even got treated to a wedding anniversary weekend take home gift. Very special evening! There were people working on patio planting and hoses being dragged and such during dinner which was a bit strange, but they must have been crunching for the weekend. Might have been better not at dinner hour, though. We love Artisan and will certainly return! Always a pleasure to dine there!

    First time there. Was not advertised that it was a prefix menu with no alternative option. Menu was difficult for me so having even more limitations wasn’t fun. I don’t think I’d go back but open table should advertise if there’s only 1 menu option so people don’t get stuck in this situation. If it were up to me I would have left.

    I looked on the website and under menu they had a prixfixe brunch. They are typically good at updating their menu online daily. We arrived and they had a special Mother’s Day brunch for $95pp. The options were all dinner-type, no breakfast options listed at all. Our food took a very long time to come out, and once it did arrive, my halibut was over-cooked. The fish was so dry, it was inedible. They were kind enough to take the fish off my bill, but it was really disappointing. I love Artisan, but this was a really bad experience.
