Would’ve gotten a 4 star review for the great food, but we were extremely disappointed in the slow service.

We came here for our anniversary dinner and what we expected to be a 2.5-3 hr meal was almost 4 hours long. I’ve never been had such slow pacing and in the end, I had to ask the server that we needed to hurry home and they rushed to get us our check.

I did enjoy the food—their bite-sized appetizers were great and I loved the paw paw cheesecake at the end. However, our experience became soured due to the long service.

First off it’s hard enough to provide New Year’s Eve dinner to make everyone happy… the staff and chief did their job.  Food was great the Pork Prime Rib was amazing to the many other offerings.  Chief took great care of the other guest who is gluten intolerant… plus, great guests in the restaurant to bring in the new year

Wandered into the bar here some years back and finally now got around to making a proper reservation and it did not disappoint.

Each course was well presented and had a fanatic mix of flavors. Staff were attentive,  both to allergens and to our experience. Really went above and beyond with everything on our visit.

Atmosphere and ambiance were great,  colonial inspired with a healthy dose of the modern. Being seated near the hearth was a treat.  Could feel the warmth of the fire from our table, and it's always nice to see the staff working.

My only dig are the chairs,  while they look nice, the back bar rest was at just the right spot to dig into my lower back. Was painful by the very end of the night and still sore in the morning.

Even with that one sore spot, would do it all over again. Absolutely worth it to stop by. Even if just for the cocktails.

We went to The Dabney last night to celebrate our anniversary, and unfortunately the evening was disappointing largely due to their service.

For starters, we walked in and the two people at the hostess stand saw us, continued their personal conversation, and then greeted us 1-2 minutes later. Bizarre for a Michelin Star restaurant

After we were seated, no one came over to our table for at least 15 minutes. We didn’t have any food at our table for 30 minutes. FYI- the snacks are to be eaten with your hands. However, the warm towels came to our table 2 minutes after our snacks. Also the cocktails we ordered arrived after our snacks. The hush puppy was great. The nearly frozen scallop had little taste and was challenging to eat without a utensil.

Our main server came over to start my wine pairing for the courses section explaining that the crudo would be coming up next. Except sike- the next plate was an anniversary present from the kitchen that arrived without side plates. The fried catfish slider was one of the best plates of the evening- tons of flavor and texture! However, it took the head chef (or the gentlemen leading the kitchen) to notice we were passing the plate back and forth to bring us over two side plates so we didn’t leave crumbs all over our table.

Then the crudo did arrive and our server made a comment like, “I was wondering when that was going to arrive.” The lack of communication between staff is a problem. The crudo was by far the best dish of the evening- fresh, local fish with some very fun, creative flavors that pulled off a winter crudo.

Afterwards, the oyster pie was the last really amazing bite of the evening. I’m not sure what happened with the main course- it seems like someone tried to elevate the traditional thanksgiving meal. The pork was nearly half fat, the ham looked and tasted like deli meat, and the stuffing was burnt. The two desserts were just okay. The palate cleanser had a nice apple rose in terms of  presentation. The paw paw cheesecake was barely edible, and our main server didn’t say anything when he saw a barely eaten dish going back to the kitchen.

Overall, the atmosphere of The Dabney was the best part of the night. Being seated by the kitchen and the hearth fire was lovely. However, our main server was out to lunch and really did not do anything to elevate our experience. He also asked us three times if we had any allergies and asked us if we were celebrating anything special (the anniversary card at our table should have been a signal to him). The sommelier was very good but again there’s a lack of communication. Twice, she walked over to pour my next glass and then realized she had to clear my old wine glass and bring over silverware. Also as we left, we had to ask two employees to find my coat that we checked as no one was at the hostess stand. We also did not receive our menu, wine tasting, or postcards as promised at the beginning of our meal. Unfortunately, the overall experience was a huge disappointment due to these issues. I have never taken the time to thoroughly write a negative review before, however we spent over $900 on an overall mediocre meal with lackluster service.

We went to the Danny for dinner.  It was very good.  The wine pairing was very good especially for the dessert.  There was one that was a bit disappointing (the beans) it reminded me of eating chili which is not really something I would expect at such a nice restaurant.  Other than that, everything else was fantastic.

My favorite was the appetizers and the dessert.

The sommelier really made the evening.  He told us stories about the wines and the wineries they came from.

Would I go there again ?  Absolutely !
