    We were a party of three and all the plates we had were terrific. Scallops, Kale Burrata and Beef Carpaccio for starters, Sablefish, Steak frites, Lamb for entrees. Incredibly nice cocktails and a huge wine list. Excellent service.

    I am very fussy about my dining experiences. It has to be value for money while also satisfying my need for service quality and gorgeous food. Wow! Courtney room is my new favorite restaurant. The room is beautiful and the service friendly and oh so professional. The food is beautiful and focused on local sourcing. That crab ravioli and focaccia bread. I could eat it every day. So well done! Magnolia Hotel is a lovely place to stay to enjoy a complete night out.

    Nice environment- we had a quiet table. Nice cocktail and attentive waiter. The fixed price lunch meal was price right with a good starter salad. My pasta entrée was ordinary. My husband ordered the ling cod from the regular menu. He thought it was adequate but skimpy for the price. We would try it again and I would order from the regular menu, as this resto was crowned 'best' in the city...

    The hostess was very friendly and promptly seated us. We were celebrating our anniversary here and had a small card on the table, and everyone who welcomed us knew that and offered us some champagne on the house. The food choices were excellent, including our appetizers, small plates and mains. The mango ice cream was equally delicious A night well spent

    The Courtney Room has gone upscale in recent years. The menu is excellent, the service outstanding, and the broken-up spaces mute what is occasionally a somewhat noisy room.
