Thought this place was great. Good service, flexible with our large group, appropriate sized portions. Not cheap but not over priced, great for a celebratory birthday dinner.

Had a wonderful dinner last night. Even though the holiday parties were filling the restaurant, the service was great and the staff was on top of everything. Everyone is friendly and the food does not disappoint.

I enjoyed our dinner. My wife had the salmon and I had the pork chop. The Cavalier salad was also very good. Wines by the glass were average.

Hi Steven, Thank you for your review. Would you be able to provide more information on what you would like to see in our wine by the glass list?

The food was amazing and the service was exceptional. It was our daughter’s birthday and our server was delightful and attentive. While we were ordering dessert, I wanted to ask our server if I could hand him candles so our daughter could make a wish but he had already arranged everything before I even asked. If that is not top-notch service, I don’t know what is!

Hi Michelle, Thank you for your kind review. We are happy to hear that your server Jeffery provided exceptional service. We look forward to seeing you and your family again soon.

The dinner was very good. The dessert, however, seemed like it was bought at a grocery store, both the slice of apple pie and the ice cream. They were subpar in comparison to the rest of the meal. This was Thanksgiving lunch and it also ended up being quite pricey. We were rushed through the meal even though the place was not full. I wouldn’t do this again, not worth it. I like the Cavalier for a regular meal.
The CavalierResponded on December 2, 2024
Thank you for your feedback, Nicole! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your dinner. We're proud to feature pies from Starter Bakery and were surprised by your comments on the dessert quality. We truly appreciate your input and hope to welcome you back again soon. Thanks again for your review!
