My husband and I were celebrating our 33rd wedding anniversary. We were greeted at the door by a member of the staff who wished us a happy anniversary. I requested specific seats at the bar and they were set up for us prior to our arrival with menus. The bartender/server (Breanna) greeted us and immediately offered us a glass of sparkling wine to toast our anniversary. She was attentive to us throughout our dinner, explaining the menu, checking in to ensure we were enjoying our dinner. As always, it was a wonderful experience! We enjoyed the bitter greens salad and pork belly starters. My husband had the halibut entree and I had the monkfish. Both were delicious, although I felt the monkfish was a bit salty. We finished with the pumpkin crème brûlée — outstanding!! Thank you for a beautifully memorable dinner.

Beautiful evening at a window table for my daughter’s birthday. Excellent service from Bryan and others who sang happy birthday and the chef sent a delicious brownie and cream in addition to the sorbet we ordered. The scallop special was truly the best and freshest that I’ve experienced.

    Enjoyed good food and service at Whiskey Neat. Menu was varied with something for everyone. Service/wait person was friendly and accommodating. Overall great experience pre-theater especially for a busy Saturday evening. A return visit definitely in the future.
