    Dined on Christmas Eve after searching for a good holiday menu. The food was amazing. Our group of five ordered the Prime Rib and the Salmon dinners. Too bad the prime rib isn’t on the regular menu because my husband keeps raving about it. The special cocktails were made perfectly. The atmosphere was slightly underwhelming. Would have felt more special with some holiday decor. The server was attentive but slightly distant which made it awkward . Overall a great Christmas Eve meal for the price. Definitely will dine here again.

    We love Glen Prairie. Two of us cannot eat gluten and their menu items can all be made gluten free. The service is amazing, as is the food. Highly recommend it!

    The service from our waitress was fantastic but the bartender told us at 9:20 that we "only had 10 more minutes" despite the restaurant's website stating they are open until 10pm.

    The service, food, wine were all excellent. The noise level was high. The round tables for 2 were not a comfortable seating option.

    I ordered a San Pellegrino with an appetizer. I did not received it until after my entree was . I had fish and chips. The breading was severely under cooked . They seem to be understaffed. All around very poor dinning experience.

    Staying at the hotel and wanted to stay inside due to the cold. Wonderful food with many great options made with locally sourced products. Our Server, Ana, was great!
