   Revery is a great fine dining experience tucked away in an out of the way residential area. The food is always great and the service is both informative and attentive. There are definitely standout menu options but it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try new options. This is a great restaurant if you’re looking for an experience above the standard chain restaurants options in the Bloomington area.

   Nice place with a full bar. Three of us had the short ribs and two raved about it. I had the special surf and turf pasta with three shrimp, a minuscule amount of filet and crab. I would not get it again. The pasta was taken off the bill by the Manager. I would have said something to someone sooner had the waiter checked on us once food was served but he did not.

   Food was great! The salmon was fabulous! Also, the mushroom pasta was delish. Ambience and service were excellent too! Will be back!

   I ordered the surf and turf and it was very good, although the lobster tail was pretty small...but the NY Strip was huge! The others ordered the meatloaf, tacos, and hamburger, and they all said it was just ok. Our server was fine, but needs more experience. I'd return for another visit, but doubt my fellow diners would...

    I never leave reviews! However, I have to say that this is one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. Gregory, our server, was amazing. He suggested the great food, the atmosphere was amazing. It’s a gem. You owe it to yourself to go here and eat!

   Our server Gregory was top notch. We enjoyed our entire experience. Cocktails were really good, we would return just to have a drink. Seafood special didn’t hit with us, but the fillet, meatloaf and short rib was great.

   We arrived about 5 minutes before our scheduled reservation. The hostess greeted us at the door and we were seated immediately. However after 20 minutes we still had not been seen by any of the waitstaff. After flagging down the hostess, our waiter arrived and took our order. The waiter did explain what the confusion was, apologized for our wait and made sure that our order was expedited. I ordered the Rev Burger which was good. The French Fries were golden and crispy. My wife ordered a Gin & Tonic from the bar which arrived with a very sad and dry slice of lime. For dinner she ordered the Mushroom pasta which unfortunately she said was bland, with little sauce and was swimming in butter. I liked the new decor which is a positive change from the previous restaurant. The overall bill wasn’t bad and again the waiter apologized for our wait. Overall I felt our experience ended on a positive note. However, we feel a little reluctant for a return visit.

    Enjoyed our first visit — food was new and very good. Nice selections of wine and liquor. Waiter was very knowledgeable and easy to talk with. Can’t wait to come back and sample some more creative didhes
