    We had such a great experience the first night of our stay that we cancelled the dinner reservations we scheduled earlier. We travel and eat out often and we love the ambience, the music, the cocktails and the food is over the top. The eggs Benedict for breakfast was excellent. Most of the menu items are handcrafted! We had 4 different servers at 4 different meals and they were all great! They were friendly and very knowledgeable not to mention highly professional. FABULOUS !

    This was my second visit to Dean’s and we visited for New Year’s Eve. Our experience at the beginning of the night was excellent and Nico was very accommodating and entertaining. Our oysters and shrimp cocktail were great but we ended up waiting over an hour for our steaks to arrive from the time we placed our order. Nico apologized and said that there was a mix up in the kitchen and another tables meal was prepared first? The long wait for our order soured the experience and left us rushing to get the check before midnight, which was unexpected for a reservation that had us seated at 9:15PM. There was no clear explanation for what happened and no compensation was provided for the inconvenience.

    We enjoyed this spot and look forward to coming back. The wine selection was lovely, the filet was perfectly cooked, and the martini hit just right. We got the mac n cheese but I'll be back to try that fancy baked potato!

    Waitstaff were very friendly, but couldn’t decide on who was/wasn’t our servers. Drinks took very long to come to our table and there were literally only two other sets of people in the restaurant (went at 3pm).Otherwise, food was good and I’ll be back for the seafood plateau…delish!
