I went for brunch. This was my first dining experience at the Dawson, and it was great! Amazing atmosphere, and all of the food was tasty. Before going, I did read that parking was difficult, but I didn’t have much trouble. Upon walking up to the restaurant, I also noticed a sign offering valet, so that will definitely be valuable next time

Some dishes were good and some were regular. The burgers were ok, but the pasta was so overcooked that after one minute on the plate it turned into a gluey paste. The drinks were good. Service was nice and they let us eat peacefully. I loved that they did not bring the check while we were still eating, as most restaurants in the US do. I appreciate when they wait till the customer asks for it. I would give it a second chance. Loved the atmosphere

What a fabulous dining experience. Sat at a table in front by the window and glad we did. Not nearly as noisy as in main part of restaurant, and more importantly the table was much larger for four. Our server (Alex) was a 5 star guy and the food was so good. The meal almost doubled in price due to the wine pairing and didn’t mind at all. Will definitely be going back.
