Wow...what a place! Meat Market was packed on Friday night so I was glad we had reservations. The front staff was super friendly, even though they were completely slammed. Our reservation was right on time and our server, Holly, was lovely! Even though the place was packed, she treated us like she didn't have anywhere else to go - answering questions, helping with selections and taking our order. The food was fabulous too! I look forward to going back soon!

We went for their Christmas Eve dinner. This was an amazing meal. One of the best I have ever had. From the hor d'oeuvres to the appetizers and then the salmon, duck, rabbit and langoustine. Then topped off by an amazing dessert. Of course, accompanied by a delicious lemon drop martini. The atmosphere was festive, and the wait staff missed nothing. Lilac is definitely on our list of favorite restaurants. Can't wait to go back. KUDOS!
