    First time diner, and will definitely be back. Sarah Kate was amazing with great service and the perfect recommendations. The pace of the entire meal was leisurely, which we enjoyed. Can’t rave enough about the food. Portions were generous, price was not bad, and taste was out of this world. We had soups for appetizers, the lobster bisque and butternut squash, which both were amazing. Then the prime rib and cedar plank salmon. Perfect cook on both. Seasoned very well. Sauces were top notch. Definitely recommend getting a the prime rib with the crab cake - possibly the best crab cake I’ve ever had. Cocktails were delicious, as well, and capped off with the ganache covered mousse and cake dessert (the name escapes me). The wallet wasn’t hit unexpectedly bad, but was happy to pay for the experience we received. Enjoyed complimentary valet service on a snowy night and tipped Abe, who was extremely kind. 10/10 experience. Absolutely zero complaints. Even bonus points for getting to see a train go by.

    If you desire or need a trouble-free thanksgiving meal the Carlyle delivers great food with excellent service. Juan, our server, was running the whole time and managed all our needs with a tremendous welcoming spirit. It was cool how he anticipated needs while serving so many tables. Our dinner of roast turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, green bean and carrot medley, corn bread stuffing and balsamic flavored Brussel's sprouts was savory and quite tasty. We took salmon to go for a working family member that was very well appreciated!

    Excellent Thanksgiving dinner. The 3 of us had regular turkey dinner, duck, and salmon and all were excellent. . Best French opinion soup. Split the cheesecake, key lime pie, and crème brûlée all were excellent but crème brûlée was my favorite. Katie P provided excellent service. Highly recommend!

    Seated pretty quickly; service was a little slow; menu had nice variety; calamari appetizer was skimpy, but delicious; entrees were spaghetti and meatball (1), lamb chops, and a salad - all tasty; desserts were Nutella crepe and a bread pudding - both delicious!
