Thoroughly enjoyed a delicious Sunday champagne brunch for two on our 25th wedding anniversary. A perfect special occasion setting with a lovely ambiance, creative and well-prepared food, and good service. Totally enjoyed it.

A wonderful fine dining experience. The food is great and the service is even better. We live in the area and walked in one evening and was able to be seated immediately.

The food is great, but the service could be better (we did not get every item we ordered, the appetizer did not come until after the entree, and when I asked about drink recommendations, a staff member came back and provided a description of the dish). I am hoping for a better overall experience next time!

Absolutely lovely Christmas dinner - exactly what we were hoping for.
We were seated within minutes of arriving and there was a complimentary coat check.
The seared tuna amuse bouche was really tasty and had a variety of textures that made it an interesting and satisfying bite. The bread was also incredible - soft with a crispy exterior and cheesy.
I started with the fried oysters and my friend got the Waduke Chowder. Both were rich and flavorful.
We both had the Filet Oscar which was absolutely delicious. The potato puree was smooth and comforting and the steaks were cooked exactly to our liking. I particularly love when asparagus is cooked sufficiently to bring out the flavor without losing the snap when you bite into it. The bearnaise was beautifully balanced.
Dessert was perfection. I had the chocolate hazelnut bundino and my friend had the sticky toffee pudding. Both were inventive while being familiar and comforting, a difficult balance to strike.
Overall, we had an amazing experience and truly enjoyed the high level of service and beautifully prepared food. It made a Christmas away from home worthwhile.

This is one of the first reviews I have written, but I feel compelled to do so because my service experience in the Fairview has been consistently bad the last several times I have eaten there and I really want it to improve so I can continue to eat there with colleagues, job applicants, etc. While the servers are very friendly when we order, there is one person in particular who works bussing plates, and each time I have gone he has tried to take my plates and those of the people I am eating with away before we are done. Even when we have said we are not yet done, he comes back two minutes later and again tries to take the plates. Sometime he literally puts his hands on them before we say we are not done, other times, he asks, then asks again. One time he tried to take our bread plates and we had not yet even touched the bread. Given the price we pay to eat here, it very much feels like we are being rushed out. I do not have this experience at other restaurants, and it is becoming awkward taking job applicants and others here because of the consistency of this problem. I thought perhaps the problem was the table was needed, but this happened just the other day when the place was practically empty. Please talk to your lunch busing staff (and servers to some degree as well) about not rushing people and not constantly asking if people are done with plates. And by the way the SAME person the other day then went and grabbed the leather check wallet before we had put our credit cards in it, again because we were having a leisurely lunch and were not ready to pay. It was awkward, and then we of course felt compelled to pay right then. This one person does this the most, but the servers have done variations of this as well. For some reason there seems to be a culture of rushing people out. My only experience is at lunch, not other meals.
