“One of the most unique menus I've ever seen. Great place to try new dishes. Great service. Inside was noisy, so we decided to sit outside, where it was quiet and relaxing.”
“Wow! First time here - and it did not disappoint! Had a reservation for 5 and highly recommend if you have more than 4 in your party to make a reservation! Our table was ready to go for us when we arrived. We were there for a celebration and they really were so amazing to us! The service was kind and attentive - including our incredible waitress and host! They are so great with Gluten Free menu items and had a great selection of NA Mocktails and Spirits. We had a bouquet of flowers and they brought a vase with water for us to put them in. We got several snacks and small plates to share and all of us got an entree. Everything was literally amazing - I tried the lamb burger special and WOW! I could eat that at least once a week! :) Plenty of street parking available within a couple blocks walk. I can’t recommend this spot enough for anyone that wants high quality food with high quality service! Thank you to the amazing staff on the floor and in the kitchen for making our experience truly memorable!”
“I had an incredible dining experience at this restaurant, where the standout dishes were the fresh and briny Northeast oysters, perfectly paired with a bright mignonette. The truffle fries were addictively crisp and aromatic, while the broccoli tempura delivered a satisfying crunch and a subtle, nutty flavor. The salmon was beautifully cooked, tender, and flavorful, rounding out a menu that impressed at every turn. Beyond the food, the service was attentive and upbeat, and the ambiance felt fun and festive, making the entire evening a delight.”
“Incredible food, great place for getting a few things to share! Our server recommended mainly their seafood, the shrimp toast and scallops were phenomenal! We also got the special which was a seared ahi tuna that eas delicious. Great variety of selections and knowledge/attentive staff!”
“My girlfriend and I both love frequenting Nightingale for date nights! Everything is always fantastic, from the atmosphere, attentive service, and delicious plates! We always start with a selection of East and West coast raw oysters, priced at $4/each. It’s always made sure of that you have fresh cutlery between courses, smoked olives, water, and a cocktail in hand! We typically are helped out by our two favorite servers at Nightingale Mohamed and Greyson, who nevertheless stop by our table on our visits to say hello, both are extraordinary and never fail to make our dining out extra special. We also love when we see Anna and Shane working! Recently they’ve had some menu switch ups, so we haven’t been able to try all the new items but our favorites remain the Mushroom Bruschetta, Chicken Wings, Grilled Octopus, Hanger Steak, and Steamed Mussels! For drinks we love the Four Horseman, Blood on the Tracks, Coupe D’evil… and trying their rotating cocktail of the moment! When we can we love to stop in on a Monday night for half off bottles of wine (Mohamed always has great wine recommendations!), and Wednesday’s for their famous Lobster Spaghetti! Overall, Nightingale never ceases to exceed our dining expectations!”
