   We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The food was creative and the flavors were excellent. The dining room we ate in was a little noisy, but not unbearable. Overall a very good experience.

   Never been to a restaurant where I couldn’t eat the food. Combination of flavors terrible. Only thing that tasted good was the Carrot Salad (although IMO could have been improved if carrots served warm). Warm appetizers not good: Potato dumplings with duck/pork and scallops in broth could not eat due to poor flavor combination! Husband had seared duck which he asked to be well cooked instead of seared. He thought it was ok, but I did not enjoy. Shrimp toast very average if that. Staff and setting were nice.

   Excellent food. Compliments to the chef. Although the menu was limited and different that what was listed on the website. Will reserve again.

   We were excited to try 80T. But a loud obnoxious photographer was seated in our pod and reuined our 36th anniversary celebration. Focus on adding variety to your limited menu.

   Great service, delicious cocktails, but beef dishes and risotto dishes tend to be too salty for our taste.

   80 Thoreau has become a staple of our restaurant lineup. We love it here. The food is always interesting and delicious. The drinks are always very good and the staff is incredible. It says so much about a restaurant when you go there for years and see the same faces on the staff. This New Years celebration was no different than what we have come to expect from this gem. Thank you for making our 2025 New Years celebration special!
