    The restaurant in the rehabbed hotel is sorta charming and the service was excellent. However, delivery from the kitchen was slow and the food--at least the food we ordered as part of the three course fixed price menu required here--was very ordinary and in retrospect high priced. Very convenient for a pre-Music Hall dinner but not for us from a "value dinner" point of view.

    First time to have dinner at The Symphony . My dinner was very good. Highlights were the chicken entree and yeast rolls! Experience was especially positive with Shelby as the server. She was very attentive and accommodating. Always willing to allow for our requests to our small changes to the menu. Hostess was attentive too. My only suggestion would be to update the sitting in dining room. Allowing for the historical ambiance is not always comfortable for the guest. Overall, a 5 star 1st time visit. Thank you.

    Symphony Hotel is definitely our favorite pre-show place to eat. We love the ambiance whether in the main dining room or in the lounge. Buzz, the bartender, makes terrific cocktails and provides great service in the lounge. My wife loved the gazpacho and her pork chop special. I had the chicken broth soup and the cod. I recommend both. We each had the peach cherry cobbler. It was outstanding.

    It was a nice dinner and great atmosphere in a fantastic location. The vegetarian option blew the duck, chicken and steak away!

    A very special place that we love visiting. Unique, rather old-world "European" atmosphere, nice food, and good jazz.
