   Food was delicious and the place has a cool vibe to it. Compared to the old Winsor House, they created more space for dining and updated the menu. We look forward to going back!

   All six of us enjoyed our oysters, dinners and desserts. Mixed drinks were perfectly balanced. Delicious! We sat by the fireplace and oyster bar. So cozy. Great night.

   Overall good experience. It was a busy night. We had a 8:45 rsvp but didn’t get seated until 9:15. Tried to get a drink at bar. Was passed over 3 times… took about 20 minutes to get a drink and my wife had to go up and get it. Dinner was good, but very slow to come out. We sat at 9:15 and didn’t get out until 11:30… only 2 of us.. the food was superb as always. But the experience at the beginning was a turn off especially at the prices + 8% service fee. Service should be better….

   Great Valentine's Day meal! We look forward to the tasting menu every year! Last night was exceptional with very unique flavors. We loved the scallop ceviche and the lamb over polenta with salsa verde was fantastic! Can't wait for next Vday!

   We love the Winsor House! We bring our friends here often and introduce them to the place. Wonderful menu, great servers and usually excellent service. Last night we sat at the bar and we saw another patrons order was confused and late. And then following that our order was confused and late. It was a Wednesday night and the place wasn’t very full. It was hard to explain why the service was so poor. Will be back again, but I’m not sure if I’d bring friends next time. It could prove embarrassing.

   This is the second time we’ve come to brunch here and have had the best meal and time! Can’t recommend this place enough.

    The area of the restaurant we sat in (nearest the parking lot) was a bit chilly - my kids kept their jackets on the whole. Oysters were delicious. Service was excellent.
