butterfields

drinks only. i had drinks and apps at the bar but it was a very nice place to go, busy with a lot of business sorts, probation etc..nice decor as well.

great inexpensive place to eat. pasta mondays are a great deal for any family

sat at the bar. bartender (diana)made me feel at home. recommended the tuna app which was off the charts. had the skirt steak sandwich and was very impressed. live music was a very nice touch.

what happened!. omg! went to butterfields last night, fr. 10/3. have been there in the past but not in a while. i thought it was still a classy place but boy have things changed! walked in with my girlfriend. barely got acknowledged by the hostesses. we headed to the bar which was crowded and obnoxiously loud! took a while to get bartenders attention for a drink. got a seemingly forced thank you for overpriced drinks..stupid me still leaves a tip!..reminded me of my old club days..didn't like it then and not now..anyway, we lasted 15 mins before we left. we ended up having free drinks at home and hungout in the hot tub..will never be back to butterfields..

first time not a charm. visited on a saturday. was greeted and seated. after that it was all down hill. ordered the sausage roll as an appetizer. it was served burnt. sent it back. ordered the baby rack of lamb medium rare. it was served raw. could not find our waitress. turns out she was handling a catered event. busy (bus) boy asked if i want it cooked more. get the picture. btw, the last time i had seen our waitress is when she brought me a knife for my meal. that too was returned since there was what appeared to be a lemon pit on it. had to track her down for my bill.
never even asked how the meal was. guess she already knew.

spoke to the gm. outside of wanting to buy me a drink (i did not come here to drink) and thanking me for bringing this to his attention, he was not genuinely concerned.

must be a place to throw a party. hope their food is edible.

stopped in for lunch and had fantastic calamari and one of the best roast beef sandwiches of my life, excited for their great creme brûlée i ordered that as well and was a little let down, not the most attentive service today but still a great spot

very good.. a full meal with a nice bottle of wine runs about 50 bucks a head; that being said i was still very pleased with big portion size and service; the main course, to me, was satisfying and more than acceptable but not as flavorful as expected... still very good. the chicken was very tender and plentiful.

i felt very comfortable and not out of place, while the service was outstanding. an enjoyable night out.

probably the worst place i have eaten at honest to say. they use squar rubber "chicken"cubes and that is by far the most disgusting taste there is. i could only eat not even a quarter of my meal.
