    Waited only 10 minutes for the table. Great waiter. Name is Kirby and he is spectacular. We are a demanding group and he was excellent. Very patient and kind.

    The hostess and server were not as professional as we are use to in dining. the server did not even ask us if we wanted dessert. the break came out warm but stale. This is an old trick. The scallops with lobster sauce was good.

    server was not well trained. Food was just average. Why this place draws such a crowd is beyond me.

    The BEST grilled cheese sandwich I have EVER had!!! I wanted comfort food, and that sandwich, coupled with really good tomato basil bisque, was PERFECT!

    This was our first trip to Mt. Washington Tavern and we were favorably impressed. When we arrived, we thought that we were going to pass the evening in a local bar scene atmosphere, but we were taken to a back dining room that had a totally different decor. What a surprise! The variety in the menu meant that everyone could tailor dinner to what suited them. The food was well prepared and portions were huge. We would definitely go back and we would definitely recommend it.

    I was not impressed. Southwest eggrolls didn't taste Mexican/southwest and looked like they sat in the deep fry grease for days. The Angus burger was very good. My friend ordered the Thai Chicken salad and that was average tasting as well. Dessert was uneventful - a chocolate sundae was a small bowl of vanilla icecream with some chocolate syrup poured over it. I asked to be seated in a booth and was told that they didn't have booths for only 2 people; however later in the evening, I saw couples in booths. After sunset the restaurant became very dark inside. They walked me from the front of the restaurnt to the large room, through a hall that had smelly trash bags in it. Didn't much help my appetite. Probably won't go back.

    The bar staff was attentive. The food was great. The service was fine. The back room is much to dark to read the menu.
