    The woman at the front - concierge, upon checking us in was not accommodating at all and shrugged her shoulders when we requested a round table. She was extremely inconsiderate.

    We originally thought we had reservations at our RH where we had eaten before and really enjoyed it. We were disappointed when we discovered the mistake but so pleasantly delighted when we got to The guest house . The food, the staff and the overall audience were all delightful. All five of us agreed that we would definitely go back.

    The food and service was amazing. I was happy that the restaurant sat us down, even though our entire party wasn't present. Many places don't allow you to sit until your entire party is there, and that alone was much appreciated, as we got to sit down, ordered champagne and relaxed while we waited for our last guest to arrive. They wouldn't allow us to order until the entire party was there, not even appetizers, however, at the same time, they didn't rush us either, so we totally understood wanting not to overwhelm the kitchen with orders at separate times. The waiter kept checking in on us, not in a rushing way, more to ask if we had questions about the menu, or if we needed more drinks. It was a delightful night, food was delicious and we'll be back!
