Ristoranti in zona The Atheneum

Really recommend this place. Eating here twice now and great food both times.

My fiancé and I thoroughly enjoyed our dinner here last night. Not only was the food amazing, and in large portions (so you're definitely getting your money's worth), but this was the best service we have ever had. When we asked for to-go boxes for our leftovers, he actually boxed everything up for us, and got a separate container for each item so none of the food would mix, he did this without being asked. Important to note that when you order sides, they are not included in most of the meals and may seem expensive but each side comes with enough to honestly feed 4 people. We ordered 3 sides, shared all of them, and still had a lot leftover. The bread they bring you at the beginning of the meal is excellent, it comes with sea-salted butter and spreadable garlic cloves. We ordered crab cakes as an appetizer and it was possibly the best crab cakes we have had anywhere. He ordered the shrimp linguine, I ordered the seared salmon, and for sides we ordered asparagus, lobster mac and cheese, and truffle potatoes. Everything was cooked perfectly! We also ordered a lemon drop martini and a pomegranate martini and they were both good but we both liked the lemon drop one more. For dessert, we ordered the chocolate torte. My only note here was that since it was cold and more like a pie than a cake, it should have come with a knife to cut it without mashing it since all of our plates and utensils had already been cleared from the table. We will definitely be back for date night again.

The service and good quality are always top notch! The restaurant is inside a very old, high ceiling, building that can be somewhat loud if there are larger crowds. The goat cheese balls appetizer is a must try!

Our server was the same one we had on our last visit and she’s great

The point of reservations is to avoid lengthy waits, so we could stay on schedule. IMO, we had to wait too long to be seated. People without reservations were seated ahead of us. We had to wait around 15 minutes to be seated, after our designated reservation time. Our kids were falling asleep prior to their food arriving. One of them did not eat their dinner.
