   Everything about the restaurant was outstanding. Our only issue was parking. The valet was full so my handicapped mother had to wait 30 minutes to join us. I would like to see more handicapped parking spaces if valet is full. Valet found a spot for her once I gave them $100. 00.

   I had brunch with a friend. The food was excellent and the service from Ben was just enough attention without being overbearing. The Bloody Mary for two was fabulous with a great tasting blood Mary mix and tons of extras to make it special.

   It’s a very loud place. We asked our server if it was so loud because of the holiday. His response was, “No, it’s normally louder. To the point that you have to scream to speak” so if that’s your vibe, go have a good time. The food was on the same level as Ulele. It was good, but not the best. We ordered: dumplings, tuna tartar, tomahawk steak, mango chopped salad, mashed pot, lobster Mac, brussel sprouts, bone marrow add on, creme brûlée, cranberry, cobbler, chocolate cake, a cappuccino, & unsweetened tea. This was PLENLTY of food for 3 ppl.

   Had 8pm reservation for Thanksgiving, so we expected a busy restaurant. But there were quite a few things that went not great. 1. My reservation was for in the dinning room, but we were sat outside ( it was a nice night at least) but people waiting kept leaning on our table and chairs, which was very overcrowded 2. While I was told my whole party had to be in attendance to sit a hostess tried to give her friends our table with only half the part there. 3. Witnessed one of the bartenders double dipping testing straws in drinks and then seeing them seved to customers 4. Everything seemed disorganized from the hostess to the wait staff. And it made everything slow. 5. The food itself was good but not great, definitely overpriced. Our waitress was kind even if she was a bit slow. It was a bit strange that all the waitress had there hair down. Also, the restrooms are not only oddly located but are extremely small.

   We had 7 pm reservations on Thanksgiving and by 7:45 still had not been seated. Overbooked and rude FOH staff. Won’t ever return.

   Great dining experience. Sat outside and there was a lot of sidewalk traffic. The help was excellent. The food was divine.

   Very good! Service was great, food was wonderful. Music was a tad loud and lighting made us all tired. Would like a tad lighter.

    Went for Thanksgiving dinner. Busy but the wait was acceptable. Once we checked in it went very quickly. Our waiter was Ben. Very friendly and professional. Ben explained the menu and the variety of choices. He was attentive checking back in reasonable intervals. Andrew was our server and every bit as professional as Ben. They work well as a team. Aside from the wonderfully enticing regular menu which was difficult to pass on, we went with the Thanksgiving menu. It was after all Thanksgiving. The turkey was tender and moist with a nice cranberry sauce. The stuffing was very good as was the butternut squash puree. There were also two crusted lamb chops. The food was excellent. To sum it up, the Meat Market is a great experience. Not only great food, but you're in a trendy neighborhood, great for shopping, people watching. When combined with Ben as the server, it makes for a very memorable evening.
