   Very nice! Great date spot with good service and good food. My French Fries were a bit disappointing, but the food was great otherwise. The place is small but packs lots of guests.Great bar, with a great wine selection.

   Quaint inside but the restaurant was very crowded and loud. We were seated in the front and it was very cold; there was a draft coming out from behind where I sat as well as the when the front door was opened. We didn’t have appetizers, we had steaks and 2 sides with drinks. The steak was good but the one side came out lukewarm. It was about $120 a person without tip.

   Shame on you Houston White, charging a credit card fee. When prices for meals are that high, topping with a credit card fee is wrong. Let’s get to the food. Steaks were just okay. The Filet looked small for 8oz. Delmonico was better. Mashed potatoes, we’re too creamy, need more consistency. Mushrooms were good. Bisquit’s were dry, not sure why anyone would want to buy additional ones. Cocktails and wine very good. Espresso Martinis had coffee grinds in it. We returned and they took off from bill. Very crowded, tables were on top of each other.

   We had the unexpected pleasure of dining here yesterday evening, when a cancellation allowed us to come for dinner. The service was outstanding and the ambience was pleasant. The food was great, although one of our steaks was overcooked. $18.00 for a side is overpriced. The restaurant was extremely busy. The 1 and 1/2 hours allowed for each reservation at the table was not quite enough time to allow for the chefs to prepare the food and patrons to finish their meal. However, it really was a special treat and we always enjoy dining at Megan’s restaurants.

   Second visit for Valentines Day. Food is always excellent. Waited at the bar for our table. Bartender never acknowledged our existence . He was busy with servers and didn’t offer us a drink the entire time we waited, about 15 minutes. The hostess was very friendly but the staff was rushing everyone out the door because they were busy. Heard main server tell the hostess she would speed up her customers dinner to “get them out”. Our entire dinner was rushed . We were only at our table for a total of 50 minutes. I would expect that at a low end restaurant but not when I’m spending $200 for dinner. Our server was very competent and friendly but it was evident she wanted us to move along. Will look for a different venue for next year as we gave it 2 tries. Sad because the food is excellent.

   Great service and food. Highly recommend the lamb pops appetizer. Can't go wrong with any of the steaks. Pricey but worth it.
