This was a very unpleasant experience. They seemed inexperienced with customer service. The minute we walked in there wasn’t anyone to help us find our seating, we had to walk around the restaurant to get help. There was barely anyone in the restaurant on a Saturday night. The food was terrible and so was the quality. Not worth the price. Overall I don’t recommend this place, very disappointing.

Sadly I did not have the best experience at The Office last night. Our server did not remove menus or used plates. Not once was our water refilled, nor were we asked. I received my main course, and the scallops were overcooked. They should not have had a steak consistency. When I communicated this to my server, her response was “OK, perfect!” This was not an appropriate response. I do not foresee me dining again at this establishment any time soon.

Thank you for sharing your feedback, and I’m truly sorry to hear about your experience at The Office. It’s disappointing to learn that the service and food quality didn’t meet your expectations. We aim to provide attentive service, and I apologize for the issues with uncollected plates and water refills. I also regret that the scallops were overcooked and that our server’s response was not appropriate. This is certainly not the standard we strive for. I appreciate your input, and if you decide to return, we would love the opportunity to make things right and provide a better experience.

The scallops were cooked perfectly. We got there early and tried a selection of the margaritas. The blood orange and mango were awesome. Max is the GM. He was very friendly and made us feel at home. Definitely recommend the place. We’d go back again for sure.

Nice place, food is good. But way too noisy. You can barely have a conversation with the people at your table.

Service and ambience was excellent. We went in early before our reservation time and they were accommodating. Pleasant wait staff and the manager assisted to make sure things were right.

Side caesar is not worth the extra cost, portion was very small and hardly had any dressing.

Went for a business lunch. Food was good and came out rather quickly. Was able to keep lunch under an hour and that is with us taking longer than usual to decide. Staff friendly and overall feeling of the restaurant was pleasant.
