Best Restaurants for Quiet Conversation in Southwest Waterfront

Wonderful cuisine - not the old Tabard Inn restaurant! Always innovative cuisine and beautifully served. Highly professional servers. A pleasure to be in the setting too, especially the covered patio.

Fine dining at it's finest! The food, the servers, the atmosphere were all top notch. We even got some special attention because it was anniversary and that was very appreciated.

Amazing steak, cooked perfectly. Scallops were great! Piano playing, great atmosphere. Valet was perfect and the speakeasy type bar downstairs where the bathrooms are was amazing. Will definitely come back here, great date night!!!

Fantastic! This is one of our favorite places for brunch and it never disappoints!

Restaurant week dinner--limited menu but every choice was very good and innovative: unusually good hummus with scallion pancakes in place of pita; terrific green papaya caesar; beautifully fried catfish with kimchi potato salad. Bonus for me that the kimchi is made without shrimp powder; and there are always gluten-free and vegan options for full meals. In fact, next week they debut a catfish sandwich on gluten-free bread, with cornmeal to pick up the flavor of the fish breading. Only the smashed cucumbers were underseasoned: they deserved garlic, a little soy sauce and lots more chili. A really fine meal worthy of Tim Ma's reputation.
