Restaurants near Cheers to Art

One of my favorite places to eat and entertain others.

We arrived 15 minutes before our reservation time - we waited that long plus 20 minutes. Service was excellent! Food was great! Only complaint was lack of seating during our wait for our table. The bar area was full - we had to stand by the door for 35 minutes. It was very cold outside and the door opening and closing made it very uncomfortable

We had a great time while enjoying wonderful food and service! Very high quality meats and the salad/side bar is like nothing I’ve ever seen before. From fresh and roasted veggies to smoked salmon to charcuterie and everything in between! There’s something for everyone! My only negative comment is that we were there for a birthday dinner and were sat at a table right next to the servers stand/end of bar. So it was not as romantic as I would’ve liked but we still had a great time! Will def go back!

My 4 colleagues and I met for lunch for our annual Christmas lunch. We wanted to go to someplace new so chose Cooper's Hawk. We were promptly seated in a comfortable booth and our server was very attentive and totally on top of everything! We ordered several appetizers; the Candied Bacon and Artisan Cheese Plate was yummy (especially the 2 goat cheese offerings) and the Sweet Chili Calamari was deliciously different than any other calamari I've had (they're typically breaded, deep fried and served very crispy like onion rings) . These were huge calamari (very tender, not chewy), lightly battered, and liberally blanketed with a medium-spice sweet chili sauce and served with a Sesame-Sriracha Aioli. Highly recommended! I also ordered a cup of the Seafood Bisque which was rich, creamy and included a generous amount of crab, shrimp and lobster; I shared it with 2 colleagues who also gave it a thumbs up. Two colleagues shared a white wine flight and a red wine flight; they expected small tasting-sized glasses so were surprised when 8 almost regular-sized glasses of wine (4 white, 4 red) were brought to the table. Two other colleagues each had an individual glass of the Pinot Gris and did a refilll halfway through their meals. Our entrees were a mixed bag... my Shrimp and Scallop Risotto with peas, asparagus, corn and spinach was underwhelming; I ate about half, brought the rest home but doubt I'll finish it. One colleague had a Braised Short Rib Grilled Cheese sandwich with Fries and a side of Tomato Soup; he only ate half (too much cheese, not enough meat). One colleague had the Baked Parmesan Shrimp Scampi and said the shrimp was tough. Two other colleagues ordered the Dana's Parmesan-Crusted Chicken and both cleaned their plates. Several us of decided to split the Banofee Pie for dessert. While we were waiting, our server brought us 5 small glasses of a fruity dessert wine (didn't catch the name) and it was a delicious. The Banofee Pie was oustanding.

The food was great. Our server was terrific. And as usual, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
