   Very Very Vey disapointed with the after 2 pm menu on Easter. I brought my wife and daughter there specifically to be there after 2 to enjoy the regular dinner menu. Instead it was a surprice to me that only brunch was being served. Good brunch very good food BUT I was totally disapointed in the menu restriction. Your bartender Jamie was outstanding and our waitress very good. No complaints on the food that was avaiable BUT!!!! I was so looking forward to enjoy your mussels and duck raviloli which I have heard is incredible but not on EASTER SUNDAY! So sad on a very special Holiday. Carl Cacciatore

   Velvet Buffalo for Easter Brunch felt a bit too rushed, even for a special occasion event. But the service was certainly prompt. This is the first time I've visited the VB when the food preparation also tasted rushed. Too bad. I usually love the place.

   Always a great experience. We had a large party of 7 and our server, Alicia, was excellent and kept everyone happy! Once again , the chef was so accommodating of my dairy intolerance, which I so appreciate! The bruschetta is awesome! All our entrees were great, from steak to pastas! My favorite restaurant!

   Food was bland, we even tried a couple of dishes and it just did not have much flavor or excitement. We really enjoy many restaurants and this is one that we will not return to. Very expensive and expected a lot better.

   Love this place! Menu changed from our last visit and my daughter was a little sad, but it’s still not hard to find something that will be fabulous. A little pricier than we would like, but always walk away with a smile.

   Excellent service and the food was amazing. We never had an empty glass without being asked if we needed another drink and as soon as our plate was empty it was cleared. The food was excellent. No complaints! Perfect for date night!

    We enjoyed an excellent meal. Caesar salad was uniquely dressed, very tasty. My wife ordered the swordfish which was perfectly prepared. We love the use of grains like farro and polenta. I dined on the chicken piccatta. Delicious. Above average portion sizes on both plates. Our waitress, Alyssa, provided outstanding service throughout our meal. No hesitation in recommending this restaurant.
