            The service was excellent, but the food was disappointing. The charcuterie board was bland; the meats were dry and tasteless, and the cheeses tasted less than fresh. Our entrees were also under-seasoned and not cooked to our liking. The steak was uneven, raw in some spots, and well done in others. The dessert we chose was an amalgamation of store-bought ingredients mixed into a tasteless lump. Overall, for a $200+ meal, this was a very poor experience.

            Change the color temp to 3500k on the walls. Add a warm light on each table. Dim everything. It would be much better ambience

            Food was very tasty and the service was great. However didn’t appreciate or think it’s necessary for them to add a 3% service charge for using my credit card. Most meals are $40+ which should include any credit card fees if needed. Don’t think I will rebook again as there are many other restaurants to visit that don’t charge fees.

            I definitely enjoyed my dinner at The Rutledge. I was watching the workers and they were so polite and quick to serve each customer.

            I thought it was over priced. Everything was a la carte. Side dish of potatoes was $12! Plus they charged you 3% for using your credit card
