    Our server was great. The quality of the food was mediocre at best. There were pieces of shell in the chargrilled oyster from non careful shucking, so you either swallow a sharp piece of shell which is dangerous or you have to pick them out as you’re eating. The cook on the steak we ordered was not well. Seemed like the steak hadn’t been temped before placing in the pan. It was quite tough for a ribeye. I see what they are trying to do here but it definitely needs some tightening up on the menu/ quality of cooking/ expediting process. Best thing was the server she was great.

    We had a great meal. We came here after going wedding dress shopping and our waitress, Grace, was awesome. The girls were a little late and she was accommodating and even brought us a free dessert at the end of our meal to say congratulations. Our dishes were great and we all had fun trying fun things on their menu.

    Working in fine dining I do have some expectations and premeditations coming into any dinner. Those expectations were met, the food was incredible, the drinks were outstanding, and CARVE made my valentines very special for me and my lady. To the chef, the food was top tier, the butter/truffle sauce really made our steak pop, reminding me of a truffle Demi-glace that made each bite better. CARVE truly set a master of craft precedent that even some more established restaurants don’t meet. Jack, thank you for our evening, you provided exceptional hospitality, me and my fiancé felt very well taken care of. I saw how many tables you were managing, being in that role myself at work, but you still made time for us which gave us that “at home” experience we needed. I will definitely request you in the future when I return to this restaurant. Thank you to the staff for your time, Chance
