   We started our evening at the 1855 Lounge. It’s a beautiful venue with high level cocktails and scotch. Great way to start! Walked over to Lionne next door and had an amazing dinner. Enjoyed delicious lobster bisque, a traditional NLI flavor. Our entree was beautifully browned scallops, black rice with light raisins for a little sweet, tiny tomatoes and spicy micro greens. We were very impressed with both the great flavors and original presentation. The dessert we chose was a yummy chocolate cake with fresh fruit, sherbet and lemon cream. It was truly a great dinner at a new venue that didn’t disappoint at all!

   Just a couple small serving mishaps that are easily remedied. Nothing that would prevent us from coming back knowing you’ve been open for such a short time

   Very nice space! Food was good, Abbie was a terrific and attentive waitress! The bread was really not good and they need to change what up. Would like to see Veuve Clicquot by the glass! Will be back

   We had a wonderful dinner. Our waitress, Abby, was amazing and very knowledgeable about the menu and food allergies. Two of our guests have celiac and she helped so much.

   That sounds like a fantastic dining experience! It’s great to hear that Abby provided such excellent service and was knowledgeable about the menu, especially when accommodating food allergies. It really makes a difference when staff are attentive and helpful. I hope you get to enjoy another wonderful dinner there soon! -Lionne Managment

   The place was empty yet they sat us next to the entrance. There were no specials and our server was not knowledgeable about the menu. We waited for water refills many times, had to ask for salt and pepper twice, and our wine glasses sat empty. The food was quite overpriced. We waited for the check for a half hour. The flight of creamery ice cream was limited to four flavors. The ambiance was nice but the flickering imitation Candlelight was distracting. They don’t validate parking and we had to park off site in a garage with no staff, all automated.

   I'm sorry to hear about your experience—it sounds like there were several areas where things didn’t meet expectations. From the seating location and slow service to the limited ice cream flavors and parking challenges, it seems like there were a number of issues that impacted your visit. I hope your next experience is much better and more enjoyable. Thank you for sharing your feedback. -Lionne Management

    The service was terrible on a slow night. Took forever to get drinks. Asked for all food to be served at once. It wasn't. The French Escargot Casserole served with savory French toast and fennel garlic cream was awful. What a way to ruin escargot.

    I’m really sorry to hear about the poor service and disappointing food experience. It’s frustrating when things take longer than expected, especially on a slow night, and it’s a shame that the French Escargot Casserole didn’t live up to expectations. I can understand how the combination of issues would be disappointing. I hope your next dining experience is much more enjoyable. Thank you for sharing your feedback. -Lionne Management
