   Have not been to Black Rail before. We are always looking for someplace with ambience and good food. The Black Rail fit the bill perfectly. It has a cozy feel, service was great and my husband said he had the best burger he thinks he has ever had. They cooked it perfect. We will be back.

   Had an enjoyable happy hour at Black Rail. Enjoyed the shrimp tacos. It was a bit noisy when the indoor band played. They were good but made it hard to talk to my friends.

   We had a wonderful dinner...food was amazing. The small circular seating is pretty uncomfortable, however. But other than that...we had a great night. Tks.

   Unprepossessing location in a car park next to a Vons but cozy and decent meal. Jazz duo on a Friday night was bliss. Open kitchen generates trust. Crisp service. Decent charcuterie. Tasty fish tacos. Ok house Pinot Grigio. Good burger. They actually carry a decent non-alcoholic beer (Athletic). Not a memorable meal but good for a casual meet up with friends or when you just don’t want to cook and who would say no to a relaxing dinner on a Friday with live jazz?

   Our hostess was wonderful. We arrived early and she said there were two seats available in the back bar until our table was ready. Our waiter was pleasant and took time explaining the specials. I chose the lamb shank which was prepared just right to medium. We had a xylophone and guitarist play jazz music! A great Valentine dinner!!

   The ambience was wonderful, great atmosphere. The layout and decor is eye catching and the service was top notch. The drinks were made perfectly and the food was delicious. Definitely will be revisiting again.
