We had a great family gathering at Curate. Our waiter, Javier, was outstanding and made the evening even more special. Our six person table was waiting for us, and the restaurant had to delay our arrival by thirty minutes owing to traffic. No problem, they made the change with a positive attitude. We were very impressed with the entire experience!

Servers were extremely helpful & attentive. Warm goat cheese dip is amazing! Highly recommend. Other food was ok. Caesar salad not worth it. The restaurant is extremely noisy. I could barely hear the people at our table. Not sure what you do about that. The noise is not a deal breaker tho. We made a reservation, but no one seats you when you arrive. You seat yourself. We were lucky…there was one table left. Don’t count on your online reservation. Not sure if this is normal for them or not.

The food was excellent, as were the drinks. Waitress was good, just over worked. Not enough waitstaff. Noise level was quite high at times. I would return for the food alone.

Thanksgiving ruined. This restaurant should not be on open table. The waitress apologized and said we should’ve chose any other restaurant but this one. Didn’t realize it was a hotel restaurant attached to a hospital. And please trust that hospital food would’ve been better. What mad matters worst was the manager went around asking all about their experience then blamed all of the customers for their own experience. Trash. I can only look back on thanksgiving 2022 and laugh. What a joke. Oh and I ordered the citrus cream pasta with chicken. The chicken was cooked harder than concrete and the pasta has zero flavor. My friend ordered the same but with shrimp. No bueno. Thank god for the old fashioned that starkly drowned our sorrows.
