    I ordered a burger and the waiter suggested medium but when it arrived it was raw. He never checked back in with us and we were pressed for time so I just ate around the end and left. And it was a $25 burger! My husbands lobster roll was dry and didn’t have a lot of flavor. All of the middle tables were empty on a Friday night so it wasn’t like they were busy, I was hoping for better food :-(

    Some food items OK, others a little better. Deviled eggs and Caesars salad OK, Halibut much better.. Service included two people. A little too much hovering ; serving male before female food and wine. Should not pick up any plates until all customers fininshed.

    We’ve been wanting to come here for ever and finally did! Sadly it wasn’t quite as good as we expected. The service was ok, not very friendly or attentive. The prime rib at $55 was not prepared as my friend asked - it was bloody when he asked for medium rare more towards the medium side. Don’t order the $20 calamari - it’s small and rubbery. The tikki masala chicken was very good, and the halibut was excellent

    Outstanding meal at the BBC last night. From appetizer to main courses, it was all good. Lobster ravioli was delicious, as was the mash potato croquette and halibut that my wife enjoyed. Will come here again.

    One of the best dinners I have had in a long time. Food was excellent. We ordered the Short Rib and BBC Burger (both 10/10). Our server was great too, very friendly. Will definitely be back and recommending to friends!

    I took my wife here for her birthday. She loved it. The food, drink, and service were wonderful. We went early, and pretty much had the place to ourselves. We both had fish (salmon and halibut) and the Banker's Money Bags (duck dumplings) for an appetizer. The wines were great and so was the service. The decor is much more modern than the former restaurant but very classy and light inside. I would definitely recommend the BBC.
