    Started with the lobster cocktail which was very good (had to ask for drawn butter, which I recommend doing) and then had the prime rib which was absolutely fantastic! I get prime rib quit a bit and this was easily top 3 maybe best I’ve ever had. My fiancé got the rack of lamb which she said was the best meal she’s ever had and she said as much to our waitress who maybe wanted to see for herself because we asked for it boxed with 3 pieces and when we got home we noticed there was only 2!! So was a little disappointed all of the meal didn’t make its way back bc it was so good and that’s just a strange thing to happen but still will be back!!

    Very nice. Steaks were high quality and prepared the way requested. Special effort was taken for food allergies and alterations were made to menu items to accommodate. I wish my steak fries were a little crispier, I should have requested it and I am sure they would have taken care of it. Easy parking! I would definitely go back.

    Consistently good food, I’ve never had a bad meal here. We enjoyed a quiet relaxing lunch, I had a swordfish kabobs dish while my partner ordered the scallops, both dishes were cooked to perfection.

    It’s my go to restaurant. Took the grandchildren and they were most accommodating. Everything is always superior. To Bob Murray - given all the competition in Burlington the Cafe in my opinion remains the best of the best! 50 years and counting. Unbelievable.

    We had a great time, and it was all thanks to an attentive waiter. As far as the food, everything was delicious, from the appetizers to the dessert + the drinks.
