We’ve eaten here over 10 times and always have had a good time and great meal…until this one. Service was excellent but the food/drink was fair at best. Maybe just an off day?…we’ll give it another tray in the spring. Again, the wait/greet staff were amazing!

From the moment we were welcomed by the friendly valet, to the live band playing in the lobby, and the outstanding service and exceptional food provided by the wait staff, we were thoroughly impressed.

Second poor meal in a row - I actually think the hamburger was spoiled. Not worth the price, especially during poor weather.

Tables of more than 4 are not permitted in the glass room (which we were not aware of prior to arriving) so our table, while pleasant, didn't have quite the view that we were traveling to Castle Hill for in the first place. Because our reservation was at 2:45 and the glass room was nearly vacant, it was disappointing that they couldn't accommodate us in that room. Flexibility and customer service should drive all restaurants, but a Relais Chateux...come on, it should go without saying. We enjoyed our meal and considered it a family success (3 adult children returning home and celebrating a grad school acceptance) but inflexibility (unnecessarily) always shocks me in a world where we as customers have so many choices!
