    First of all, Open Table really saved the day for last minute NYE plans. We made our reservations and were seated in less than 10 minutes. The Rail Car is such a great experience. It feels like a special occasion without being fussy. An excellent menu of food and drinks which manages to include unique tastes and an offering for everyone. Our server was busy but efficient and attentive. I witnessed great team work of fellow wait staff running food for each other to keep the evening and experience flowing for everyone. On such a busy night to have your order as specified, hot and in such a brief wait was amazing. Highly recommend both Open Table and The Rail Car.

    Food was absolutely amazing. I realize it was New Year’s Eve. Our reservation was for 630….we did not get seated until 7:15. Our waitress was busy and MIA fir great length of time. We’ll be back!

    Everything was amazing at Railcar for New Year's Eve! Our server, Adam, was a true pro, so knowledgeable, and pushed our evening up over expectations.

    We are for lunch in New Year’s Eve. It was very nice. Being lunch, the crowd was not large at all. I will say that in the many times we have dined here, we have never ordered anything we didn’t like. It’s an upscale yet relaxed, casual atmosphere. Whether you are in a suit or sweats, it’s a place you can enjoy and have a fantastic meal. The staff is wonderful as well.

    I was celebrating a birthday and wanted to go somewhere nice but not too pricey. I was so pleased with my choice. We made reservations for 8 p.m. and got seated quickly. Megan was friendly and attentive, and the food was excellent! An indulgent birthday dessert was offered and enjoyed without the loud Happy Birthday song. It was all quite lovely.

    Booked a reservation one week prior and sat us at the “odd table.” It was basically in the middle of the room. The table was wobbly and felt like we were right in the pathway. Food was not good and dessert had to be sent back twice because it wasn’t cooked properly. Very disappointing!!! :(
