Restaurants near Athenaeum Theatre

Lex our server was fabulous from start to finish! He explained the starters and entrees beautifully. We got the braised short ribs which were flavorful and tender just as described. It was our first time, from the host warmly greeting us while they gave the kids a stuffie each. The girls ordered from the kids menu which gave them a beautiful mug to take home! The fairy that went our granting wishes was truly magical! And to top it all off they took complimentary family photo to remember the outing. Definitely will be back and start a new family Christmas tradition! Thank you again Lex and staff for making it a very special and memorable evening!

One of my favorite meals in the city. The beef chahan rice is phenomenal every time, the fish is always fresh, and you really can’t go wrong with anything here. 10/10 every time!!

The holiday decor is amazing. Service was great. Service and someone else who checked in on us were friendly and attentive. We went after the holiday for brunch so it was a little quiet for the neighborhood. I;m sure it's more lively at other times. A few normal breakfast type items and a few kinda sweet breakfast items. I had a nice mocktail.

I loved my experience tonight! I’ve been here back to back weekends and throughly enjoyed my time.

From the moment one walks in, it’s clear this restaurant has mastered the art of hospitality. The food is consistently exceptional—outstanding, in fact. Whether it’s the chicken Vesuvius, the delicate pasta, or the homemade desserts, every plate is bursting with flavor. What really sets this place apart, though, is the service. It’s impeccable. The waitstaff is not only attentive, but also genuinely friendly. They're always happy to offer recommendations, and their knowledge of the menu is impressive. This place is the perfect combination of great food and outstanding service, creating an unforgettable dining experience every time.
