    Chaplin was great! My wife and I shared 5 small plates: Roasted Beets, Shrimp Cocktail, Charred Octopus, Poached Lobster Risotto, and Lamb Lollipops. Everything was delicious. We also had a couple of Manhattans, and finished off with an Espresso Martini and Crème Brûlée for dessert. We decided to eat at the beautiful bar, and the bartender’s were lovely. Overall a great experience!

    Got sat very shortly after we arrived. Victoria was our server and she has the best service. My girlfriend and I shared an appetizer, steak, and a dessert. They had a saxophone player who played everything from classic jazz to modern r&b.

    We went out for an early Valentine's Day dinner and the service and food did not disappoint. It was a bit noisy due to Happy Hour and our table was in close proximity. Our waitress Lindsay was very pleasant and provide excellent service. When we got there I had in mind what I was going to order for dinner until I heard the specials. I ended up ordered the stuff pork chop special and my husband order the salmon special. Both meals were very flavorful. Kudo's to the chef for the great special creation. Looking forward to our next visit.
