Ivan was excellent! It was everything we expected and more. The food was items that you can find elsewhere but they will not taste as delicious as they did there! Five Stars all around!

We love Compline. The food is so delicious. I tried the Rabbit Lumache this time and every one in our group loved it. The duck fat fries are always perfect. Our only feedback on our latest visit was the price of the short rib at $54 seemed high. The plate was basically just one short rib ( it was large) on a small amount of some root vegetable purée. It seems like they could fill the plate up with a few other things at that price. Sometimes we eat with our eyes and the first impression was that just looked like it wasn’t worth $54, so that impacted how we felt about the experience. We will definitely go back, but wouldn’t order the short rib at rib even though it was delicious.

Hi Margaret, thank you so much for taking the time to write such a thoughtful review. We appreciate how your feedback is constructive and these type of notes help us refine our product and the overall guest experience. We took a moment to discuss this very review at our management meeting this morning and challenged our team to think about the best way to ensure there is both value and "wow" factor on our all plates. We hope you see you again soon!

Burger and fries the only item on the menu wprth ordering. Menu doesn’t seem to have changed for years. Waited 30 minutes for our wine at lunch. Restaurant wasn’t that busy. Seems they were understaffed and undertrained for a wine restaurant. Bottle list always 86’d and not updated.

Subtle elegance is what you get with Compline. From the ambiance of the restaurant to the service and definitely not least, the food. We partook of the 6 course chef’s tasting with a wine pairing and it was such a pleasure. Our servers spoiled us with their attention to our comfort. Our Sommelier entertained and educated us along with our wine pairing which was spot on. The chef, Edwin, came table side and described our dishes as we were being served. EVERY course was delicious with their tomato soup and smoked short ribs Stars of the show. We are fans of chef’s tastings and pairings. Having dined at Foray, Le Petite Canailles, Press, Protege, Single Thread and French Laundry, Compline definitely holds its own in this lineup. Bravo !! We look forward to dining with you again.

It was a quiet night, but the ambiance was boring. The service was quick and we were done both appie and meal in an hour. Disappointed in the wine selection, limited napa wine and no cocktails available. Not the hype I heard about.
