I got married on my late brother’s first birthday in heaven… and this place was just really amazing and kind! We had dinner here with a party of 10 (including 2 little boys, 3 and 1 years old) after the wedding. The staff were considerate and the food was phenomenal, especially the steak, the jdori chicken, and the Brussels sprouts! They were so good with my kids! They even wished my brother happy birthday gosh that was meaningful. Thank you for an amazing dinner to celebrate and mourn with my family in a beautiful and supportive setting.

My friend and I stopped in on a Sunday and grabbed seats at the bar. The bartender recommended an extra dry gin for our martinis and nailed it—they were made to absolute perfection. It’s honestly the best martini I’ve ever had, and one was definitely enough. We also ordered fresh oysters, which were a 10/10 and the perfect pairing with our drinks. The vibe is warm and welcoming, happy hour is fantastic, and the entire staff is super friendly. This just might be my new favorite spot.

I really enjoyed my birthday dinner here. High quality steak, good liquor and delicious dessert. Skip the side dishes and get a hunk of beef, a salad , order a stiff drink and the chocolate souffle for dessert! The service was excellent too. Reservation recommended

First time here to celebrate several special occasions. Came in on a Saturday night at 5pm with a reservation and had no wait at all.

Vanessa M was our server. I would be lying if I said that she was good, because honestly, she was the best. Every staff member we had the pleasure of being assisted by were all beyond helpful and kind. Even when my medium-MW done NY Strip came out well well done, they remade it to perfection, the manager came over to talk to us, offered 2 desserts, asked if he could get us anything else (we declined because we didn’t need anything else), and even when we thought that was beyond generous, they took off $30 off the steak. So when I saw exceptional service, I absolutely mean it. I tried to eat the well done steak with lemons and A1- which I normally eat steak alone because it should be flavorful with it’s own juices, since this was overcooked it needed backup but thankful they remade it for me!

The mashed potatoes were so creamy and delicious. The bread and sundried tomato butter were so good!! The Caesar salad was probably one of the best I’ve ever had, and I’ve had a lot my husband loved the oysters and the sauces it came with. His blue cheese crusted NY Strip was cooked to perfect and enough for 2 servings. So flavorful!!

The building itself is older, inside and out, but is nice. Just be sure to ask for a table not right outside the bathroom doors

This was our first time but we will definitely be back!

Valentine’s Day Dinner Review – Extremely Disappointing Experience

My partner and I were excited to try Sycamore Inn for the first time on Valentine’s Day, hoping for a special and memorable evening. Unfortunately, the experience fell far below expectations, especially given the restaurant’s reputation and pricing.

When we arrived, we were greeted politely and seated immediately, which we appreciated. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with dim lighting and an elegant atmosphere that initially gave us high hopes for the evening.

However, the service quickly began to decline. We sat for approximately 10 minutes before anyone offered us drinks. The staff appeared overwhelmed and disorganized. We were informed that there was only a pre-selected Valentine’s Day menu, which offered very limited options. While I understand special menus are common on holidays, the lack of variety was disappointing.

When the waiter asked if we wanted an appetizer, I politely declined. His response was a blunt “OK,” delivered in a rude tone, before abruptly walking away. This interaction immediately made us feel unwelcome.

We were served water that had an unpleasant taste, similar to unfiltered tap water, which was surprising for a restaurant of this caliber.

We ordered the New York steak, priced at $65 per person, and requested it cooked medium. When the food arrived, the presentation was unappealing, and the steaks were extremely dry and overcooked. For that price point, we expected a high-quality cut of meat prepared properly, but the steak was disappointing both in appearance and taste.

We also ordered a salad, which unfortunately was equally unpleasant and lacked freshness.

What made matters worse was the behavior of the staff. When our food was delivered, the individual assisting the waiter tossed the butter container across the table instead of placing it properly. We were shocked by the lack of professionalism and care. It felt disrespectful and careless, especially during what was supposed to be a special occasion.

Overall, the food quality was poor, the service was unprofessional, and the experience did not justify the extremely high price. Valentine’s Day is meant to be a memorable and enjoyable evening, but instead, it was frustrating and disappointing.

Sadly, based on this experience, I will not be returning to Sycamore Inn, nor would I recommend it to others expecting quality food and professional service.

Sycamore Inn – A Vintage Vibe with Delicious Bites

Step into Sycamore Inn, and you’re instantly transported to a cozy, vintage hideaway. The mood here is set by the dim lighting and elegant Tiffany lamps, giving the space a nostalgic yet sophisticated charm that’s perfect for winding down after a long day.

I came in for happy hour, and I’ve got to say, the steak salad was absolutely delicious—tender, flavorful, and topped with just the right mix of fresh ingredients. But what truly stole the show were the oysters. They were buttery, delicate, and packed with freshness, making them an absolute must-try.

The service here is also top-notch—attentive without being overbearing, which always makes for a more relaxing experience.

If you’re in the mood for great food, drinks, and a place with a laid-back yet moody atmosphere, Sycamore Inn is definitely worth a visit. Whether you’re here for happy hour or a casual evening out, it’s a spot that never disappoints.

This place is great. Not your typical steakhouse chain. The ambience and style is reflective of its history. The prime rib is delicious. I ordered it medium rare plus and it came out perfect. Not many places can do a good prime rib. The sides were yummy and didn’t make it around the table a second time. Come here for a classic steakhouse vibe.

A “Super Fabulous” B
I recently had the pleasure of dining at the Sycamore Inn and I was thoroughly impressed. From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting, with a charming rustic decor that added to the overall dining experience. The restaurant was also impeccably clean and well-maintained.

The service was exceptional, with attentive and friendly staff who were knowledgeable about the menu and offered great recommendations. The food itself was outstanding – from the appetizers to the main course, everything was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. The wine selection was also impressive, with a variety of options to complement each dish.

The Sycamore Inn truly exceeded my expectations and I will definitely be returning in the future. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.

How could you not support a place like this with so much history? We so need to support unique, small businesses. I had not been there in years, but stopped in last night. The ambience was so cool. The manager, David, shared a lot of the folklore of the Sycamore Inn. A brothel at one time! Once you walk in, you feel the history. David went above and beyond, showing me one of the unique little rooms that can be rented out for a party of approximately 20 or so people. He also told us that it is rumored that the upstairs is haunted. Have a meal and/or a happy hour cocktail at this historic restaurant. Their house Old Fashioned was delicious & packed quite a punch. You won’t regret it and you can thank me later .
