    We had dinner on Valentine’s Day, and ordered the specials entree’s. We shared a Caesar salad and oysters on the half as appetizers. Everything was beautifully prepared and presented. Our waiter was excellent…he knew the menu and was able to suggest the perfect cocktail and wine to complement our evening. We went back for a night cap the next night, and the night manager recognized us and came over to introduce herself. She was super friendly and we shared a nice conversation. The Sore Club is a wonderful, classy venue. We’ll be back!

    We had such a great time! 3 generations. Myself, my Mom and my daughter. We were greeted and treated with genuine happiness and appreciation the entire time. Loved the tea menu and the knowledge of the waitstaff about the food and teas was outstanding. We were asked straight away about food allergies, which I feel is such an important question. We felt totally cared for. Magic moments created!! A memory the three of us will have forever.
