"My birthday celebratory dinner with my Sweetheart, excellent service, delicious meals, beautiful presentation and ambiance. Downside, we felt very rushed by the busser wanting to take our dishes several times when we weren?t finished. We wanted to dine and enjoy each other, the beautiful setting, the food and the occasion, not eat in a hurry. Also, the bison carpaccio was next to air the portion size was soooo small and be aware, you pay for every little detail like being offered blue cheese stuffed green olives for our martinis and then being charged extra for them. Just a little deceptive. Often, the right hand doesn?t know what the left hand is doing regarding dinner/breakfast reservations."

"The restaurant offers delicious food, excellent service, and a cozy atmosphere with plenty of fires both indoors and outdoors. The decor features a horse theme throughout. The calamari was priced at $18 and came with fried lemon slices and jalapenos. The lobster bisque, priced at $9, had chunks of lobster in a creamy and rich broth. The grilled Caesar salad and truffle farfalle were tasty options at $9 and $20, respectively. The chicken roulade, priced at $29, was flavorful with a puff pastry topping. The pork knuckle, also $29, was tender and fell off the bone. The martini was $16 and served generously in a shaker at the table."

"Honestly, I'm so bummed. I had been wanting to try this place for a LONG time. Finally got around to going. We had a reservation for 630pm, they took us right away. Wasn't very busy at all when we got there (although it did fill up towards the end of themeal). I started with a beer off the tap, it was delicious and they did have a decent beer selection. We started with the cheeseplate appetizer. Out of the 4 or 5 cheeses maybe 1 (cheddar) was really good, the rest were just ok, as one person said beforethe bread etc that accompanied the cheese was scarce...but again, appetizer. For dinner we both ordered the lobster shrimpbutter risotto. The risotto was mush and the lobster seemed like it was cooked twice over. Small lobster to begin withespecially for almost 40 dollars. The flavor was decent of the risotto but it was OVERPOWERED with fennel. So much so that mywife had to stop eating it halfway through because all she could taste was the licorice. We ordered the peach bread pudding fordessert. Ice cream was good, the bread pudding was too bread like, not enough milk or moisture. Seemed more pound cakey thanbread pudding. And there wasn't a peach or peach flavor to be found. The bill came and it was pricey! We don't normally look atthe cost of things...if we're going out, we're going out...but this was enough to jump off the page for what we ate. I wanted tocome have a pour of bourbon, but to be honest I was so taken back by the pure disappointment dish after dish, that I wouldn'thave enjoyed it so I just said nvm. We won't be back and I'm deeply disappointed by that."

"It can be quite the task to find the perfect restaurant to take my ex-chef father to for special occasions, an adventure that was further complicated by the pressures of the ever-stressful Father’s Day Dinner. Thank goodness for Blue Duck Tavern in Foggy Bottom! The menu boasts fresh, local ingredients, simplistic dishes, and phenomenal flavors that hit the spot. It can bring ex-chefs to their knees. The restaurant is gorgeous – high ceiling, aesthetically pleasing interior architecture, large windows that allow a lot of light inside, and a very quaint and beautiful outdoor seating area. Reservations are recommended for any day of the week but parking is amazingly not too difficult so it’s totally worth the trip. Blue Duck is affiliated with the Hyatt hotel, so expect a mix of tourists and locals looking for an excellent dining experience. On to the food! I’ve heard rave reviews about the signature Pear Martinis…but I could not pass up the opportunity to order a Cucumber-Ginger Martini. Super satisfying and surprisingly not too sweet for my palette! The ginger really balanced out the drink and gave it a perfect kick. Will probably not please everyone – my mom made quite the face after having a sip of my drink – but I thought it was pretty fantastic (I had two. ‘Nough said! Blue Duck has an extensive wine list and a plethora of other signature drinks and a large beer selection so there’s a little something for everyone. The dishes are tapas-style, even the entrees. For example, crab cakes are served without any type of garnish, just two cakes in pan with some type of tartar sauce on the side. I would definitely recommend ordering side dishes to supplement the meal, since you won’t get much with the entrée! All that foodie hype sure lived up to expectations. Not to overuse my current favorite obsession..but the crab cakes (what else would I order?! were delicious and were very meaty, they did not taste too fried, weren’t greasy/full of mayonnaise, and weren’t overwhelmed by breading. They were the perfect temperature and very evenly cooked. Enough to share…though go the selfish route and eating them all for yourself! I recommend ordering a couple of side dishes in addition to entrees in order to have a more complete meal. My favorites were the roasted mushrooms (an assortment of shitakes, black truffle, porcini and the daily harvest vegetable. I lucked out and had sugar snap peas sauteed in chipotle chile butter…excellent flavors. And be sure to save room for dessert : We opted for banana chocolate chip sorbet, which consisted of three incredibly generous scoops, and the signature apple pie, which really is more of an apple cake. Plenty to share, though to be fair I refused to let the banana sorbet stray too far from my spoon. Service was wonderful, and I loved how all the food was carried to the tables – the runners/servers all knew who ordered what! Waiter offered great suggestions (especially for dessert! and was attentive and knowledgable. The menu is relatively limited regarding number of offerings but that is not to say it’s at all limited in flavors!…other intriguing dishes include cuttlefish ravioli, smoked sturgeon, and marinated sheep’s milk cheese with fava beans. Brunch breakfast menus looked excellent as well, all the more motivation to go back!"

"We had a group of 9 people and were celebrating 2 birthdays. Our party was placed in a very nice private room and from first entering the establishment until leaving the coat check we were treated with a top level service! Outstanding hospitality, ambience, and incredible food. We tried several appetizers, drinks, entrees, and desserts. Everything was amazing. Highly recommend for small gatherings or individual meals. The pork chop was outstanding! The shrimp cocktail was delicious. The twice baked potatoes as a side were wonderful. Go here and give this place your time. No regrets and will be going here definitely again!"

"A double birthday celebration was the reason for dining at the “new” Dakota. What a wonderful evening and so glad we celebrated at this restaurant. The environment was perfect. Great atmosphere, excellent service and outstanding food. The 4 of us began with the signature crab/Brie soup. It is phenomenal. Creamy and full of lump crabmeat. This is a must if going for the first time. My wife had duck breast and the rest of the party had the redfish….with a wonderful sauce. Our server checked on us regularly as well as the floor manager making sure we were happy. The dessert was cheesecake and a mariner sauce and the other was crepes and strawberry and wonderful sauce. The food was prepared perfectly. The redfish was perfectly prepared. We will return for sure and recommend the Dakota to everyone. Great experience."

"We had brunch on December 30. We made reservations and we seated upstairs. There is a big difference between the upstairs room and the downstairs one, although the downstairs one is quite nice as well. The food was very good. The service was excellent. You have a great view of the park and the ambience is quiet and soothing without being pretentious. There were other families there and they have enough for kids to eat, but the adult menu is wonderful. Additionally, they had vegan and gluten free options."

"Overall, the food was very good and the venue was nice and modern but the service was a bit slow and the prices were on the higher end with cocktails costing $20 each along with an automatic 20% gratuity applied. There was an empty hostess stand when we 1st arrived but after asking the bar they advised us that the hostess was on the other end of the restaurant (the hotel side). Our server was pleasant and made good recommendations, but there was a long lag between our courses, and he did not come back to our table for quite awhile after we received our entrees. We had the Hamachi Crudo and Scallops to start, and both were delicious. The scallops were buttery and the Hamachi crudo was light and flavorful. For entrees, we had the Cacio e Pepe with shrimp added and the Steak and Frites. The Steak and Frites had very nice flavor and I was satisfied with the Cacio e Pepe as well. The Wake and Bake cocktail was very comforting and a perfect fall drink if you like apples and the smokiness of mezcal. We ended with the Na'Nu and Make a Wish. They were okay desserts, but I was not really impressed with either one. I am glad we tried them out, but I'm not sure if I'll revisit given the prices and lack of attentive service. We might consider giving them another shot in the future because the food was very good for the most part. It's frustrating that the gratuity is already added because I didn't feel like the service was worth 20% but I guess they don't have to try as hard when they know they are getting 20% automatically."

Starting with scallion pancakes (yum) and ending with my chicken and broccoli (yum again) , the lunch deal (rice, main dish and soup) was very well priced and really delicious. The setting is wonderful--brick walls, and pretty decorations and the service excellent. Highly recommend!!"

"I can 't remember her name (I 'm sorry that 's so rude , but our server was a female working inside and she had dark hair that was pulled up. We were at the 1st 2-top to the left in the dining room. We were sitting next to a table of 4 with a self-proclaimed restaurateur who couldn 't bother to pick up the dirty napkin they dropped on the floor. Our server did a great job from start to finish. Our food and drinks were fast, she told us the specials and gave recommendations, and she cleared reset the table throughout service. She also had more patience than I would have with the 4-top next to us. Shout out to the bartenders, runners, manager, and kitchen staff for smooth and efficient service :"

"we came out of billings last november. didn't expect anything to be open next to almost food. we drove past a gentleman who walked along the walk, I asked him what this end would be open and surprisingly we were next to the plonk! how comfortable we thought, but we didn't expect what we actually experienced. man, I was the only patrons. the inner was very quiet. it was perfect. I don't remember the special thing we had, but I know that steak was involved. it was the best steak I ever had. who ever had. we tipped the chef 200 dollar to our shock superstition, he was hardly in his early 20s! he has no doubt a special present and we had so much luck that we served his delicious meals. the desert was a court he had formed and that was also a strange but amazing court. I would come to bozeman to come to an evening meal cooked by the amazing cook. the bartenders were also amazing. very professional smooth bundle. every second. parking: we parked on the road, right next to the building. there are many places to park."

"Great steak, I had the NY strip it was fabulous,. A delightful char on the surface, but still medium rare. It was serve sliced which at first put me off but it turned out that I liked it. I was one of the best steaks I have had. It was served with a small salad which I thought was odd. I ordered the mushrooms as a side they were good. For dessert I had the ice cream sandwich it was really good. The coffee was great. I had a cocktail that was great and not over priced. Overall I can't wait to go back."

"Our waitress was excellent the food was excellent. The length of time it took to get our drinks, ~20minutes) appetizers was disappointing. It's understandable that staffing shortages are to be expected that patience is necessary when dining out, but, to see other waitstaff hanging out at tables where the customers must have been regulars, while the person serving us was doing utmost to keep up with the demands. Just left a negative impression. Lack of teamwork, lack of caring). The atmosphere in one part of the dining room was updated pleasant. Other areas need a refresher mirrored ceiling? Single waitress excellent. Food excellent. Hostess was good. Overall though, won't be back."

Alchemy Restaurant And Bar

"Our dinner on the porch of Alchemy was extraordinary. Our server, Molly, was attentive, thoughtful, engaging, and offered insights into the menu and guided us to a truly incredible meal. We shared the XO Glazed Octopus A La Plancha and the Harissa Seared Scallops. The portions were perfect and exquisitely prepared. For dessert we shared the chocolate fondant which is honestly extraordinary and the addition of the homemade honeycomb gives a sweet crunch to the palate. Our server, Molly, was so patient with us as we were so busy talking and catching up with one another that it took us forever to order. We were grateful for her kindness and warmth. We lingered over the meal and were able to spend a bit of time getting to know her at the end of the meal. I find that whenever I dine at Alchemy I feel welcomed in like a long lost friend or family member. Everyone seems to take great pride in what they do and support one another. It's a refreshing opportunity to have fine dining without the pretention or attitude you sometimes get in big cities. I think we are so fortunate that Alchemy is in our little town and has attracted such talented chefs, pastry chefs, bartenders (honestly mixologists), and servers who all want you to have as much fun as they are. Bravo and Brava!"

"Spectacular! After four courses and a long leisurely dinner a birthday celebration, I can happily and assuredly say Jubilee is exceptionally good. We are big fans of French food and this is truly some of the most delicious food we've had in quite a while. Service was warm, but never intrusive and always professional. In addition, every course was better than the last! (Far too many restaurants can handle appetizers, but fall apart when it comes to entrees NOT Jubilee! Btw, no matter what entree you have, please ask for the haricot verts on the side! Wow!! I love a string bean, but these are crazy good! (I'm sure it's massive amounts of butter, but sooooooo worth it!!! We had beet salad escargot to start, salmon tartare comte cheese ravioli for our second course and Dover Sole Filet Mignon for our mains. Exceptionally well prepared, each dish. After all that we were surprised by a comped dessert a sort of chocolate mousse log with a birthday candle. So thoughtful! All this to say, we will be back and soon! We will definitely not wait till the next birthday celebration for our return visit! Could not recommend Jubilee more highly!"

"Our lunch at Steadfast on Friday was okay, but not better than okay. The space was raucously loud when we arrived, but as the lunch crowd emptied out, it became reasonably quiet. I would not go to this restaurant at the height of lunch hour due to the noise level. The food was okay. I had the lobster roll, which was small and ordinary and came with a lot of French fries. To the point that I felt like I was having French fries for lunch. My friend had the soup, which he said was good, and a Greek salad, which was again okay but nothing special. I would not run back to Steadfast it used to be better."

"Although the food was good I just cannot get over the fact that the service was so incredibly poor. Things took a very long time to get to the table including the dessert which was just a slice of cake (how long could that take We were waiting for so long for things like water or our entrees that by the time we ordered dessert we figured it would be best to order it together w the check as to avoid further delays. We understood there was a large party at the same time as us but that does not explain how other tables that came in after us left much faster than us which had us thinking our server liked us so much she wanted us to close the restaurant with her. The manager did come to apologize for the delays at one point but that only seemed to slow things down further as any course after said check in took much longer ð¤·ð»ââï¸ beyond my understanding reallyâ¦â¦also oddly enough the pictures on the website really do not much the real life thingâ¦..figured i mentioned because they are quite different"
