    Great restaurant. Our server was so nice and efficient. The chef came out and spoke. The manager came out and spoke. Terrific. A little pricey for the portion sizes’. Not a very large brunch menu. The place was clean and beautiful

    Everything about our experience at MCK was outstanding! The service was impeccable, and the drinks delicious. The food was top notch. We had the shrimp and pork dumplings and tartare to start. So good! My hubby had the chicken, my daughter the butter poached filet (to die for) and I had the salmon. The sides were so delicious, and the chef recommended wine pairing was spot on. It was 10 out of 10 — we will be back again!

    I had the lamb chops with mint and it was absolutely succulent. Very flavorful, it was served sizzling with butter. I am lactose intolerant but I always keep my "Lactaid" tablets with me so I can eat a little butter and no problems! I also had the house salad and it was absolutely delicious with their balsamic dressing. We got the grilled shrimp and they are a good size and very tasty.

    Truly a dining experience, not just a meal. We were seated upstairs in the bar area, our server was very attentive from the time we arrived, around both bar and food service. Knowledgeable about the menu, particularly around pairings (protein with sauce/compound butter, à la carte sides, and wines). Classic with a twist steakhouse menu in a beautiful historic building. Definitely on the favorites list. ❤️

    Food and service were great! Noise was deafening, we couldn’t hear our server when she spoke. That’s unacceptable.
