I made a reservation to dine here while on vacation, and we had a fantastic and relaxing dinner. Everything was exceptional, and the staff, as well as the other guests, were incredibly friendly. The food was excellent—typical steakhouse options—but the way they prepare the dishes elevates it to another level. It's unusual to find a traditional upscale restaurant that excels in every aspect without any pretensions, but Best Cellar truly does just that! I can’t wait to go back. Don’t miss the banana cream cake for dessert; you won't regret it!

Overall, we had excellent service from our server, who had only been there for two days. My meal was fantastic, but my wife's dish was disappointing. The braided short ribs were cold when they first arrived, and instead of asking us if we wanted them reheated, they just microwaved them without checking. When her plate came back just three minutes later, it was evident they had been microwaved because she could see where she had cut a piece off before. The seasoning was okay, but a little more salt would have improved it. On the bright side, all the appetizers we tried were wonderful! We definitely want to give this place another chance, but we hope to see some improvements first.
