The pace was not busy this time, which was nice for a change. The atmosphere was great. Our picks for dinner were outstanding, and we had a nice bottle of wine. Thanks for a nice evening.

Outstanding cannot wait to go back. On low attendance evenings, they should spread the guests farther apart for a more relaxed environment

When we arrived they told us they were running a little behind. They didn’t seat us until a full hour later than our reservation time. There was nothing on their website to indicate that they had a set 3 course meal for thanksgiving. Nothing in the lobby of the restaurant, no notice when they called to confirm our reservation. We had now idea what we were in store for until we got our menus. When asked what the vegetarian options were, we were informed that we could pay $69 for pasta with olive oil or marinara sauce (along with a starter and dessert). The crust on the pumpkin pie was the consistency of pizza dough. We will not be returning.

Our Thanksgiving dinner experience at Chart House in Cardiff was sensational! From the exceptional service (shout out to our server, Raye) to the outstanding food and ambiance, we were truly impressed. There was a price fixe menu for the holiday (at a reasonable price compared to most places in town), and the turkey entree was excellent. The turkey was moist and plentiful, the stuffing tasted just like mom's, there was a choice of potato, a vegetable, and cranberry sauce. Everything on the plate tasted so good, just like your traditional Thanksgiving, and my husband thought the serving size was very generous. The price fixe menu also included your choice of starter and dessert. The lobster bisque and kale salad were both wonderful. There were also about 9 other entrees to choose from. I had the filet and shrimp combo and it was absolutely delicious; prepared to perfection. The restaurant was packed. Be sure to get your reservation early next year. I highly recommend it!
