    I read good reviews for this place and needed a place for the 6 of us to eat before the hockey game. We got a reservation literally the day before and probably didn’t need one. The food was amazing for sure! So different and so good.! Our waiter suggested 4-5 items for our group to share and swore it would be more than enough. We ended up ordering more and quit at 7 . We left kind of hungry still. The portions for each $18+ dish ordered only came with enough for 3 people to try, so we were cutting deviled eggs and gyros in half so all could try for instance. We loved the food but were disappointed in the servings. Fun idea though for sure.

    Our service was outstanding! We went here for a date night dinner before a show tonight for our first time. Our server helped us find some great small plates to share and everything was delicious. We'll definitely be back!

    AMAZING FOOD, if you're looking to try multiple things in one meal... this is your place. Our waitress was amazing with great recommendations and accommodations for my allergies. I HIGHLY recommend the deviled eggs, they were to die for. For 2 people their recommendations of starting with 4 dishes is perfect and the follow up with their BOURBON BACON ICE CREAM AND BROWNIE, holy moly it was incredible to say.

    This was a new restaurant to myself and my dining partner. The comfort food elevated concept was very interesting and amazingly well done. The servers' recommendations were fantastic and everything delivered to our table was exactly as described on the menu. The fact that the restaurant has artificial sweeteners, but not the pink packets (i.e., saccharin) caused me to not get the iced tea. I don't know why any upscale restaurant would not offer pink packets as an option to guests since it's the only artificial sweetener that effectively and efficiently dissolves into cold beverages. Other than the artificial sweetener issue, everything else was fantastic! I highly recommend this restaurant, and if you like iced tea sweetened with saccharin, I recommend you bring your own Sweet 'n' Low packets with you. There are many appetizers that are absolutely delicious and will have me return to try the ones I could not get to on this visit. On the service side, I was running late because of when the concert ended at Delta Center. I called the restaurant and talked with Bob to let him know I was heading over from Delta Center, but I would be a few minutes later than my scheduled 5:30 pm reservation. Bob assured me that was just fine and we got there at 5:45 pm. We were seated immediately at a table that was ready for us, and had a lovely time. The service is just great at Carson Kitchen!
