Empire Grille At Venus De Milo

Hands down, 5 stars. Staff- attentive, friendly, formal Food- excellent, delectable, fresh from the oven came in generous portions Atmosphere- romantic, intimate and elegant dining room My husband and I very much enjoyed everything from start to finish. When we walked in, we were warmly greeted by the host and we were sat at a lovely table by the window for a view as we had requested. The staff was super friendly and attentive. Our server, Mara, checked on us multiple times throughout the evening to ensure everything was going well and even recommended us a wonderful bottle of Moscato. We loved her choice so much, we bought another bottle! For our appetizers, we ordered their award-winning c...

The food here was good however the atmosphere is awful and dated. Yes it is in the Venus de Milo which has been around for years and years, and you can tell it has been.

Service was just ok she took 30 minutes to get our drinks and then was never around to r...

Valentine 's Day dinner at this place was so deeply disappointing. I had been looking forward to having the famous Seafood Newburg only to learn that it was not available due to a limited menu for V Day. Why take one of your signature dishes off of the menu on a day like Valentine 's Day?? It makes no sense! I ended up having the baked scrod which was dry, and inundated with cracker crumbs. I had 3 or 4 bites, and then gave up on it. The waiter/waitress service was mediocre, to say the least. Our table was a party of 6, and the waitress who I might add has worked there for 35+ years made 3-4 different references to how she was spending too much time at our table, and 'I hope I don 't get fir...

So even though we live in the next town over, we've never come here. But it's going to get put on our list of local places for dinner. They have a good menu with some choices from their banquet menu. We started off each with a glass of wine, and I had the French onion soup while my husband had the minestrone soup. I didn't try his, but the French onion was awesome. I can't help myself but try French onion soup if it's on a menu and this one was awesome. I followed up with a burger which was delicious. My husband got the stuffed lobster and while I didn't try that either, it looked awesome and he devoured it. The environment is casual and the service is very good. We were really happy with th...
