    This is my first time going to Comfort Kitchen for dinner. Their brunch never disappoints but their dinner is a different, more elevated experience... and I loved it. As did everyone who came with me. We ordered across the board - a smattering of snacks, entrees, cocktails, wine and dessert. Not a thing disappointed. It's so delightful to sit at a table, get warm/enthusiastic service (but not overbearing), eat exceptionally delicious food, and then walk back out into the cold and not even mind the wind smacking you in the face because your belly is so, so happy.

    First, my online reservation request for a window table for my guests from New Mexico and Ohio was honored - and they loved it. Our waiter James was a delightful host, and we had a happy lunch. Your maître d' team was most congenial on arrival and departure- thanks! And even your valet parker Mr Saint was cordial. Thanks!

    We had a great meal on a very cold evening outside but warm night inside at Moeca. Food was tasty and presentation was appealing. Emily did an excellent job guiding our choices and providing clear answers to our questions. We felt well taken care of throughout our dining experience.
