"I would give this place 10 stars if i could. this review may get long but it will be worth the read. my wife and i wanted to celebrate our ten year anniversary with a romantic dinner. to preface this we are both vegan so finding a good vegan restaurant let a romantic one has its own challenges. i googled romantic vegan restaurants and got a list of about 100. i checked out the top ten that stated they had vegan options. i went to each of their websites and looked at the menu. after looking at all ten menus i found very little vegan items so i decided to call each restaurant. all i can say is boy was i shocked at the response i go from the restaurants when i inquired about whether or not they truly had vegan options for dinner. The replies ranged from whatever is on the menu is what we have, and when i mentioned that there were very few and in some cases no vegan options i was often met the the curt reply well that's all we have, take it or leave it when i asked further questions about why they promoted their restaurant as being vegan i get even more curt replies ranging from that's not my job to if you don't like it than you don't have to eat here well after discussing this with my wife we resolved ourselves to the fact that we were not going to have a romantic dinner out. not being one to give up easy the following day i googled fancy supper clubs near me. The Belvedere came up top of the list. i called and dal, the owner, answered the phone, right from the beginning of our conversation i could tell he had fantastic customer service. He asked what year anniversary it was, it was ten, when i asked about vegan options he said they had none but would be happy to make something special just for us. he asked what my wife wanted and told me his wife,pat, the cook, would make it and for me, im a fussy vegan he said i could bring my own food and Pat would cook it. Amazing, never heard of this before. when we got to the restaurant we had a private table by a fireplace, there was bouquet of flowers on the table, daffodils, the ten year anniversary flower, in a tin watering can, the metal for 10 years, a beautiful center piece that Pat his wife made for us, the number ten on our table, and a heart shaped box of vegan chocolates. they had a DJ playing songs and even played a special anniversary song for us. we had a fantastic romantic evening and at the end of it they gave us all the table fixings to take home!! all of it. we will most definitely be going back there for even casual dining even though its an hours drive from our home. The entire staff knows the meaning of truly great customer service! Dale made sure we had a night to remember, shared stories of his family and the history of the Belvedere and even gave us a bottle of sparkling juice to take home. This is the best customer service i have experienced in the last 10 years and as a business owner myself i truly appreciated it."
