Got a great deal with RB Inn. You will love the food. Best lamb I've ever had and hubbie's filet mignon was outstanding. Piano player made my 50th birthday the best! More

You MUST try the pistachio creme brûlée. It's to die for! The beet salad with the "dirt" is a must as well. More

My wife and I bought their new year package. I will not ever go back. Never. If I were you, I'd assume their best days are long since gone. I've been there before, and I have to say, it gets worse every time and this is really the last time. No more benefit of the doubt. Now let's talk about... More

Sunday Brunch is amazing... fresh cooked eggs, carved meat, seafood, salads, cheeses, deserts... all very tasty. We didn't eat for the rest of the day! More

The heirloom tomato salad and the pork belly were my favorites!! We did the 6 course tasting menu and it was worth every penny and more. The service was excellent. More

I went to the Sunday brunch for my birthday with several family members. For a $40 brunch, I would expect the food selection to be a bit more substantial. The buffet area was small compared to other places. For an establishment to offer a small amount of variety, I found the quality of the food to be lacking. The breakfast... More

One word...WOW! Chef Steven Rojas knows how to put together a plate of food. Having read some of these other reviews, I would have to say that all Chefs need time to find their groove, especially when replacing one the caliber of Gavin Kaysen. Chef Rojas may have made a few false starts, but I would say he has definitely... More

A disappointment. Small things to begin with: the pen given for our credit card fell apart. The champagne we ordered, a very well known brand, was misspelled on the menu. Bigger things: lamb ordered medium rare was close to raw. Waiter needed to be reminded to bring appropriate knives for lamb and my wife's steak--and they arrived after ten minutes.... More

We came for a special occasion this time, but we've been several times before for a nice dinner out. The service is always very good -- the staff is well trained and friendly -- helpful but not too present. Pay attention when being seated tho' , as the hostess often seats you where it is convenient -- not always at... More
