    We have dined at Union House 3x now and the food is great, cocktails were tasty as well. We choose this for special occasions and will return for sure. For us being upper 50 yr olds, we both thought the lighting was a little dark for our liking but we managed with phone lights to read the menu. Service was very good as it had been each visit prior.

    Everything was great. Our service was amazing. We ordered a lot of different dishes, which were all very good except one. The New York strip steak was very chewy. Multiple people at our table agreed. That was the only thing off that night.

    Food was great, had the Bison Fillet! Delicious. Service was also great, staff was fantastic. The place is a little dark, especially in the bar area. We were seated for dinner near a window. Otherwise could not read the menu without a flashlight.

    Upon entering the restaurant, we were warmly greeted by the bartender. She was very professional and checked us in for our reservation. Once seated, our server was thorough, explained the specials and gave us some time to decide on our order. The food came out hot and was quite delicious! The service was impeccable. The ambiance was quiet, peaceful and the music was very relaxing. We enjoyed our experience and will be back!
