Max was first rate in helping managing details for a small very special party for a dear niece’s special birthday in our unexpected absence. We heard she and our sisters were treated royally, the food was deliciously prepared and they had a memorable experience. Well done! This is why we’ve loved Marcus establishments for decades.

Food was good to very good, except the three cheese truffle flatbread, which was very plain, missing any truffle flavor and seemed to be topped with the cheapest grated parm. Service was ok, could be better. I don't think a single finished plate was cleared until we left the table. Service was courteous, at least. Admittedly, I was annoyed that they claimed not to take reservations, even though I had a reservation on OpenTable. It just wasn't a good look for our birthday dinner, kind of embarrassing and awkward. We enjoyed the outdoor area; firepit, giant jenga, giant Connect 4, bag toss, comfy seating, live music. Overall, good.

With every visit, I discover that Esther Ev gets even better and consistently fires on all cylinders. Food, drinks, service, ambience - all spot on. Had a fabulous time for my wife’s 40th. Thanks!!!
