   The atmosphere, location and general vibe is really great. But I will say that like so many other Cameron Mitchell restaurants, it is very high on presentation and very low on value. The food is expensive for what you get. No one in our party was raving over the quality or quantity. There are some unique and tasty menu items like the deviled eggs which are delicious but they are small and four of them cost $11. On this particular visit the service was slow and I don't think it was our server's fault. She was attentive but I think over burdened with too many tables and a slow kitchen. I just come away disappointed whenever I eat at a Cameron Mitchell establishment.

   It was disappointing. Made a reservation specifically for a table next to window. When taken to it, another couple had left their table and sat in the one requested. We were now seated behind a wall. Our food arrived—not what my husband ordered. When his food arrived, my food cold. No accommodation from Manager.

   Food and drinks were outstanding, as always. Our server, Annabelle, was attentive, pleasant and knowledgeable. Great experience. The Pearl continues to be a staple in our rotation.

   We sat in the garden room, view of the S bridge activity and Dublin across river was fun. Room noise level was low even with full room, host Frankie and server Julia were perfect. Celebrated our anniversary that night and it was perfect. Devils on horseback, clam chowder and the spoon bread were special and delicious.

   Waitress never removed any of our dirty dishes, including glassware. Our table was so obviously crowded with used plates and glasses that I’m not sure how she missed it. Slow on refills as well. Food was good, not as good as Cam Mitchell places usually are. Price was fair for sure. Overall a good experience, but not up to the usual level of his restaurants.

    This CM restaurant never disappoints! It is a fave for creative chef prepared food. The salads are fresh and not overdressed (Citrus salad is excellent), even something as simple as a grilled cheese and tater tots get elevated. Amazing these 2 items can taste good cold as leftovers. It was brunch and I had the perfectly cooked poached egg with homemade sausage, gravy and biscuit.
