    Our waiter Chris was amazing from start to finish and his assistant Brianna was on top of everything as well. I may have got names mixed up but we were celebrating my fiancés birthday and I’d recommend to anyone it was phenomenal. 10/10!

    Seafood focused, with good wine and champagne selection. Only a couple of smaller steak options. Better service than the Chop House or Ruth Chris nearby.

    Dined on Oct 5, 2024
    Upon deciding to try a local establishment for dinner, Matchbox caught our eye. We knew parking would be an issue, especially in a densely populated neighborhood coupled with little to no parking availability near the restaurant. The walk about 1.5 blocks was invigorating and after our meal was a needed trek. The server was super friendly, but appeared to become totally overwhelmed with the amount of tables which quickly filled her station. Overall, our food was delicious. Simple but very tasty. Seating was an issue for us, as my partner was sticking out in the middle of the walkway in such a way that the distance from. the corner of the bar top and his chair only left wiggle room to pass, He felt 'inundated' with the traffic pattern. If anyone has sat in the first 3-seater row expanded from a 2 seater row on an airplane can attest to the inconvenience and interruptions that occur. Same with this particular table. It appeared to be that other tables were not affected. Would we return - probably - to see if things just might be a bit better.
