   Great food and drinks. They did change my favorite breakfast item (short rib hash) so that was disappointing, but their chicken and waffles were good. They have a pretty good expresso martini too!

   The live DJ at brunch is a bit loud to the extent that I could barely have a conversation with the person sitting right across from me. But other than that it was a great experience!!

   Very nice looking establishment. Food is pretty good. Not a very large menu to choose from. Won’t wow you but shouldn’t disappoint you either. The king salmon had very good flavor. But the skin was tough like rubber. I didn’t take any pictures.

   It took 90 minutes from the time we finished ordering (not from the time we sat down) to get any food served to the table. Even then, they were missing several individual entrees and shared dishes. After bottomless mimosas (where they kept the champagne coming, thankfully, but not the mixers/juices), we all needed the food. One person had to leave before eating at all, despite giving the staff a 20-minute heads up that she had to leave and asking for ANY food to come out. When the manager came by to check on the situation and was informed, he said it was just a busy brunch and they were behind. That’s not a sufficient response to this level of delay. After being pressed, he did reduce the bill, which we appreciated. The DJ created a fun vibe, and played 30 extra minutes, but every track was at least five years old. Not quite throwbacks but still fun enough. The restaurant is beautiful and our server was nice, but it just wasn’t worth it. It’s unlikely anyone from our group will go back anytime soon.

   Hailing from New York, I was looking for a cozy and stylish place to celebrate a milestone birthday with family and friends. Lyle’s did not disappoint. The service was superb and everyone loved their food.

   Our server could have been more attentive. Our table was right near the kitchen. A few times I could see him back in the kitchen on his phone. Other servers had to clean our table, and alert him to come from the back when they could tell we needed something. My date ordered the NY Strip he loved it. I got the short rib, it was just ok in flavor and a bit tough to eat. It should of been falling off the bone tender. Drinks were really tasty 👌🏾

    I just love this place. Cocktails are well balanced, food is delicious. I ate myself sick because I wanted everything on the menu. Strangely enough the arugula salad is my favorite dish there but everything else I tried was great!

    Not sure why the fried chicken was so popular. The meat was very dry and there was more breading than actual chicken. The burrata salad, cabbage dish, and short rib dish were all solid.

    Burger had delicious flavor - but disappointing in terms of its size, especially with a the large buns. Recommend a thicker burger. Salmon was perfectly cooked, but the sushi rice/bok choy underneath could use improvement. Otherwise, service, drinks, cauliflower appetizer (not really a "steak" though) were really great. Thank you.

    Food was excellent, as was the service. BUT (1) $14.00 plus an upcharge for a Tito's rocks was outrageous and (2) the shrill noise coming from the drunken party sitting behind us put a damper on the conversation with my dinner partners.

    WOW WOW WOW. Small menu but something for everyone!! We had the Salmon and NY strip. I would go to say it’s the best New York strip I’ve had, ever. It came with a chimichurri sauce that was chefs kiss!!! Also came with a potato gratin that was to die for!!! Went for A birthday, finished with the Chocolate Mousse.

    We requested a specific table prior to eating brunch and when we got to restaurant no record of this. Think hostess was totally incompetent and the accomodation was ok, but not to our satisfaction. Food just marginal also and noise level was unacceptable.

    I’ve been going to Lyle’s since they opened, most often spontaneously. There is a definite decline in the upkeep of the restaurant. Possibly, being a designer, I notice all the small details that don’t register with others. But I saw enough that I wanted to begin straightening furniture and making other corrections. They did appear to be short staffed but they were attentive within their capabilities. I witnessed the young man in charge fulfilling multiple responsibilities and he was very pleasant throughout our visit. It was a Tuesday night and the dining room was nearly at capacity; the crowd was boisterous resulting in the noise level to be uncomfortable with one large group of medical students seeming to drive the noise level. Once they completed their lingering departure things became more pleasant. The food was delicious, as I have always experienced it to be. I will definitely return, I cannot expect every visit to be a 10/10. I do commend the staff for doing a good job in overwhelming circumstances.

    Service was pretty good, food was pretty good but we weren’t made aware that the brunch here is a night club. The music is entirely too loud for a Sunday brunch unless you’re looking for a party. You have to scream to the person in front of you just to be heard. If you want brunch, don’t come here. If you want a party, it’s the place for you.
