The Table

Currently here and cashing out. Husband I really dug this place. 26 games or so, really fun, biiiig booths, three cocktail tables, full bar, and great service. Very chill atmosphere. Note for neurodivergent people: just come up to bar where the silver arch rails are, order, and find a place to chill. Or sit at the bar, order, and go play. Very informal. Special board available and our bartender offered us a taste of several beers before choosing. Music is loud-ish but sensory folks should be fine with their preferred method of noise dampening. Unisex bathroom. Not too bright inside minus the game lights. Most games have drink holders. Games are .50 to .75. ATM and change machine.

April 2024: The ambiance wasn't as enchanting as it used to be. Our scallops arrived cold, and the $16 per glass wine fell short of expectations. Additionally, we were surprised to discover that a 20% automatic gratuity had been added to the bill, resulting in double tipping.

Excellent. Every bit worthy of an award!!

Despite the promising menu, and our positive experience several years ago, our experience at The Table fell far short. The scallops arrived cold, and even after being sent back, they returned barely warmed. They had good flavor, but were very overpriced. At that price point, properly cooked scallops, and more of the cauliflower accompaniment, are mandatory. The manager’s hurried plate-clearing, without greeting us in any way, lacked the expected hospitality for an upscale restaurant in this price range. Overall, disappointing and not worth a return visit. If you go, take note that a 20% gratuity is added to every bill, unless you expressly ask for it to be removed. This is often overlooked because they don’t provide paper menus. Another faux pas for a restaurant trying to be upscale, this should be clearly stated by the server when the bill is presented.

Read the fine print! My wife and I did not realize there’s an automatic gratuity of 20% at the very bottom of the digital menu. We had a great meal and ended up tipping an additional 20%. Of course, the server did not let us know this, so we ended up tipping 40%. This was not an inexpensive meal. Tipping 40% including the amount for a bottle of wine seems very unreasonable. The food itself is good but extremely expensive. As an example of my wife had the hanger steak for $54, we just had a hanger steak at Cook’s Tavern for $34. They were very comparable. again, the food and service were good but it’s extremely expensive for what you are getting. Then just add 20% on top of that. If the 20% is to assure that your staff are being paid a living wage, just pay them more and include the 20% in the price of the items. Kind of feels like a bait and switch. Also, when did we get to 20% as a baseline? In short, we won’t be eating here again and in fact, have discouraged others from doing so as well. It’s way too expensive and then you have to pay 20% on top of that. America is going through a bit of tipping fatigue at this point and the 20% is kind of a slap in the face on such an expensive meal.

Food was enjoyable especially the salmon and the scallops. The dessert was also excellent! However, service was slow. Took ~30 mins to get my salmon entree. Would go back again though!

autumn provided the best service i have ever had. the food was phenomenal especially the beignets and gnocchi. 100/10 will be back
