We went there for breakfast twice in one week! First time we had Alice and she was so amazing we asked for her again the second time. She recommended the Preston skillet and omg it did not disappoint!! It was amazing very clean calm environment for breakfast and brunch! We will definitely be back! And if you go definitely ask for Alice she will take amazing care of you!

Went for brunch and everything we ordered was perfectly prepared. We had a lovely booth along the wall overlooking the restaurant, which was decorated nicely for the holidays. Service was a bit slow but our server was kind and friendly.

I had a great experience tonight at the Preston. The vibe was really nice inside.. The bartender, Madeline, was helpful, attentive, and very pleasant to deal with. She recommended me a drink with Passionfruit syrup in, which I was skeptical of (most Passionfruit drinks really overdo it), but it ended up being very lovely – well balanced, perfectly sweet and not overly tart.
I ordered the Pretzel croissants as an appetizer, which came with a very nice cream-cheese like dip (I think it was made with Boursin?). For my entree, I ordered the rabbit, which was tasty for sure (although I couldn’t get over the fact that I was eating a rabbit lol). Everything was presented beautifully, and I felt that the prices were fairly reasonable too (given the area).
My only complaint is… paper straws, really? I know we have to save the planet and all, but a paper straw is barely better than no straw at all. Please investigate better eco-friendly options.
I’m sure I’ll be back soon, but I’m bringing my own cocktail straw next time.

Me and my husband went here for our 10th Valentine’s Day dinner (we came on 2/15). We didn’t realize it was inside of the Chase Park Plaza, but we did not mind. We are older millennials and loved it. The food is incredibly novel and full of flavor. I found that the food was cooked reasonably in that I didn’t feel full and disgusting after eating, I felt comfortable and light (aka, food wasn’t saturated in butter like a lot of restaurants do).
I have no idea why this has 4.1 stars, I have very high standards for food and this place was shockingly good… more like 5.5 stars!!! Service was excellent too. The servers are on their game.
I highly recommend their signature beet salad (truly, the best salad I have ever had in my life) And the lobster bisque Is the best lobster bisque my husband has ever had, and he too has very high standards for food. I ordered the chicken entree, which was absolutely amazing. My husband ordered a burger and they actually cooked it medium rare for him like he requested.
We will be back!

Being a single man, I needed a place for Christmas Dinner. Typically I have always done dinner with cousins, but they now have married children and grandchildren to have holiday dinner with, so I went out on my own.
I researched the internet for restaurants open on Christmas Day and picked, The Preston. I picked them based on their pre-fixed menu and price. After my dining experience, I would say it was a good choice and value.
My Christmas dinner started off with a, Seared Scallop. I love Scallops and it really got my holiday meal off to a great start. Then I had a Beet Salad. It was the first time I had a beet salad with greens, but the spiced vinaigrette pulled it all together. My entree was, Prime Rib. It came with Horseradish Mashed Potatoes, Roasted Asparagus and Mushroom Bordelaise. The Prime Rib was fork tender. I enjoyed the potatoes and the asparagus still had a snap to it, which I like. I wasn’t a fan of the Bordelaise. Yes, it did have a good flavor, I just wanted my prime rib, plain. My dessert was a, French Silk Tart. You can’t go wrong with chocolate.
When I arrived I told the host since I was a single diner, I wouldn’t mind sitting at the bar. He thanked me and told me I’d be pleased with Madeline the bartender. He was right, she was attentive and made my Christmas dinner enjoyable.

The restaurant had one waiter for the entire dining room; this after one valet attendant and multiple cars parked in the driveway in front of the entrance and backed up for valet. After we were seated, it took 35 minutes to get a drink. But, our waiter, Edward, was wonderful, but he just couldn’t keep up with the demand. Food was mixed: Very good happy hour pork belly and harissa shrimp; Very poor crab-cake with mushy filler and no discernible lump crab meat . Hamburgers were well cooked, but not as described, having a limp piece of lettuce rather than the arugula described on the menu. Because of the lack of wait staff, wait time between drinks was in terminable!! This was a very bad experience for a $200 hamburger meal and happy hour menu.

My family and I came here for Thanksgiving lunch. They were one of the few places that had reasonable prices along with reservations. Upon arrival we were offered a table or booth. We opted for a booth and got a great, cozy half circle booth. The restaurant was not very crowded but busy enough to not feel weird.
Our server was Alexandria. They were polite, professional, and gave great suggestions for the food. They made sure to give us space for our family to enjoy our time together, waited patiently to ask if everything was okay if we were in conversation, and made sure we were never in need of anything. Their passion for the food and the creativity of the chefs at the hotel was evident whenever they made a recommendation. Alexandria was one of the best servers I’ve experienced and appreciate all they did.
The food was outstanding. So much so I only got a picture of the pumpkin cheesecake. My wife and I had the Thanksgiving special which featured a salad, soup, main dish, and dessert. I had the Caesar salad (unique prsentation with hald a head of romaine and delicious), the Lobster bisque (rich, creamy, flavorful, but not overpowering) and the pork chop (cooked to perfection with amazing spices and sweet sauce that complimented splendidly). The pumpkin cheesecake was delightfully light and not to sweet or rich. The candied pumpkin seeds were a combination I never knew I needed. My wife had the beat salad, butternut squash bisque (like a liquefied pie, possibly even better than the lobster bisque) and the pork. My kids had a cheeseburger with Mac and cheese (both were arguably the best I’ve ever experienced and I raise my own beef!) and the chicken tenders. The bread that was served in between courses was baked to perfection, and the cheese and herb spread was a taste sensation.
All in all, the Preston gave us a safe, cozy space for our family to enjoy our time together, reflect on the previous year, and hope for the future. All the staff was professional, friendly, and upbeat. The food was marvelous and superb. I’d highly recommend the Preston and would come back again.

It’s hard to mess up breakfast, but the Preston managed to do just that. We sat for almost 15 minutes before we were even acknowledged by the waiter and offered drinks. When he came back we asked to order our food and then…we waited, and waited, and waited. 40 minutes later our food came out – my eggs benedict with non-runny yolks and hollandaise that was almost a gummy texture on top of the eggs. My husband had ordered a waffle that was average. It was extremely disappointing food for the high price point and it took us over an hour start to finish with very poor customer service. Highly recommend eating anywhere else, even if this seems convenient!

A party of 5 of us went for dinner. First we each had a cocktail at the bar and they were all delicious! I highly recommend trying a couple.
The menu is all small plates so be ready to share (which is what we normally do anyway). All the food we ordered was very tasty and presented well. The pretzel croissants were one on the favorites followed by the deep fried deviled eggs.
Oh, and service was excellent and super friendly.
My only complaint was that everything was pretty heavy, if your in the mood for that then it’s fantastic.

We were traveling and impromptu brought our school aged children for Thanksgiving dinner and it was marvelous! All the staff was welcoming, the atmosphere was festive and the food was amazing. Far exceeded our expectations.
