Nice enough place, especially as a corporate restaurant. Our experience was pleasant and no complaints. Food was solid, but not exceptional in any way. Somewhat bland dishes, especially the scallops. Service was prompt and welcoming. For value, menu priced for exceptional but not matched with quality of dishes.

As always a good experience and excellent food, prices are up a little from the last time. However the price being up is to be expected verses other places adding a hidden service charge. This also allows for us to tip accordingly. Staff was friendly, prompt, and worked as a team with others.

A Great Christmas Day meal. The Christmas menu was one of the reasons we chose to come to Kincaid's. I had a great prime rib (end cut). It was a very festive mood at the restaurant. People were happy to be there. Kincaid's is where we come to when we want a classy place.
