    Loved brunch and the cocktails. Our waitress was the best and made the experience for us. She was friendly, professional, and very helpful. Pancakes were very good especially the bacon.

    Great location but don’t waste your money or time. NOT worth it. Staff is much less than friendly and food is barely ok but their prices are ridiculous. Bad experience overall. Do NOT recommend.

    Our table, decor and server we love. The last time we went the bar tender made the best mojito. I was excited to get another one but I guess we got a different bartender who does not know how to make a classic mojito.

    We had a wonderful dinner! It was convenient to get reservations. Everyone was very nice from the gentleman opening the door to our waiter. She did not steer us wrong with the short rib recommendation  All the food and drinks were amazing. We especially loved the scoop of bread and deviled eggs!

    Excellent as always! We were happy to pay the 1.5% surcharge for increased food costs. Wish you would add to the check that the surcharge is due to inflation and tariffs.

    The Pearl is always the absolute best experience, and I cannot say enough about the staff. Everyone from the bartenders to the waiters to the manager are well dressed, well mannered, and seem to really cater to the customer. The food is beautiful and always taste unique as opposed to just more restaurant food. We went there for Mother’s Day and it was the perfect mix of a beautiful dining experience, but also a casual atmosphere without sacrificing refinement.
