    The inly reason this is not a 5 star review is we selected to dine at Curfew based on the menu they published on their website. The actual menu was significantly different and smaller than what they had online. I recommend you go.

    We made reservations for Valentines Day several weeks in advance and were surprised there was a special menu! Although We were a little disappointed we couldn’t get some of our favorite dishes, the menu was excellent and the dishes were creative. We started with appetizers, the crudo and the shrimp. The crudo was great, although something on the plate brought the HEAT! The shrimp were well seasoned and the broth was scrumptious and did not go to waste. For entrees we had the ribeye and the triple tail. The ribeye was a generous portion, Perfectly cooked. The potato cakes were crisp, and the mushrooms added a nice textural contrast. The triple tail portion was a little small, but the accompanying salad and beet puree were very filling. Finally for dessert I had the strawberry cakes. The cake was nice and light, but that icing was decadent! The winner of the night was the waffle. I hope that becomes a regular addition the to the menu. Our server Lee was wonderful. We were also happy to have even seated in a booth, giving us a little more of a private dining experience. Thanks for a great night!

    We went for pre-Valentine lunch. I had a wonderful chicken salad and my husband had the redfish over grits. Both were yummy. I later met up with the sales manager of whom I wanted to meet regarding my birthday and other stays. He was so kind I think his name was Brian, but thanks complicated pilgrim for your excellent service even though it looks as though there was one waitress acting as a bartender as well, but very capable thanks again
