We came for the first time, to celebrate our 29th wedding anniversary. The service, from beginning to end, was superb. The food was delicious and prepared to our liking. This was our first time here but definitely not our last. read more

Ok, so let me start off by saying that my husband and I relocated our family from south FL earlier this year. He is a senior project manager for an architectural firm and used to work on some pretty spectacular restaurants around the globe, many of which we have able to enjoy some nice dinners at. Therefore, I think my experience qualifies me to make some knowledgeable observations when it comes to "fine dining"... So it was my birthday and I am quite pregnant, and my husband wanted to treat me to a "nicer" dinner here, away from our 3 year old. Cabernet seemed promising as it was a highly rated steak house. Similar vibe to what we were used to at Abe and Louis, for anyone who's been there. So we were excited... sad to say it was a let down! For starters they seemed to have our waitress, who was truly lovely, working too many tables... and there was a very large party down stairs, which made the kitchen fall behind. They comped our dessert because of how delayed the kitchen was, and no, it was not because we complained, but because they knew we were waiting for quite a while. My husbands bone in Filet came out bleeding... he ordered it medium so it shouldn't have been bleeding. My steak was very good, however, I've had better, and with their prices you expect the best. The sweet potato was ok, kind of blah, literally just sweet potato with a little butter cinnamon sugar, nothing to write home about. My husband did love the mushroom topping and the peppercorn sauce was good... the appetizer we got was the cabernet sampler... its $13.95 per person, and its so NOT worth it! We each got one, and thank goodness because the portion was minuscule! Makes sense they make you order per person... but just the quality was once again not there. For dessert we got the creme brûlée which was delicious! The chocolate peanut butter pie which we brought home got chucked... it was horrible! Like absolutely horrible, and I am a dessert fanatic! Even my husband was like what is happening when I tasted it first and said it was terrible! He stood there in horror, as I can usually put anything down if its a dessert, especially chocolate and peanut butter. I think the whipped cream was sour... not sure what was going on there. Anyways, long story short, don't waste your money on this place. We wont be going back, and for the cost its not worth it. read more

OVERRATED! Steak lacked flavor and was too tough even though I requested it medium. I had wayyyyyy better steak at outback. Seriously. Sides are separate. I ordered creamy spinach. That was mediocre. Our first waiter was rude af. And the other hit on one of the girls in my group. I won't be back. read more

Recommended by a friend, we enjoyed the atmosphere service and delicious meal. I had crab cake appetizer yummmm New York strip although mot medium rare as ordered stir super tasty. My hubby had the prime rib and he said it was tasty 4 out of 5 stars all around reasonable prices for the area read more

I was a little disappointed. I like the big open dining room with the closed bar (for the smokers) to the left. I think a place has the right to have a place for smokers. If you don't like it, don't go in. My Caesar salad was way over dressed. My steak sandwich was okay but certainly didn't blow me away. I like the skinny fries but nothing to get excited about and the coleslaw had zero flavor. The bread they served before lunch was tasty. The men's room had paper towels on the floor and the toilet seat was broken. But most importantly there was hardly any toilet paper. These things need to be tight in a restaurant of this caliber. Daryl was on point on service. Nicely done. My only comment would be to fill the glass full of ice when a guest orders iced tea. I had four cubes. Kind of felt like iced tea in Europe. Lol I'll be back, maybe it just the circumstances of the day, but that was my first impression. read more

I was happy that the company was picking up this tab cause it sure will put a dent in your pocket but the steaks are perfect here (not too expensive though). I have been here a few times and every time I know that I am going I am like a little kid waiting for Christmas Day. They have a great wine selection that will go well with the perfect cigar in their cigar bar. I usually take corporate guests here when I need to make a great impression. read more

Amazing food! Great atmosphere and great service. Had my birthday during quarantine and they accommodated us all 17 people in a separate room. read more

Excellent Meal, Excellent Service. We were a family party of 7 adults, 1 teen, 1 child. They put us in the wine cellar. If you are having a small party, the cellar room is great! Out of the way and you do not have to worry about disturbing others. Brandon was a great waiter. He was attentive to our needs, gave us great information, and did not rush us through our meal. The steaks were so delicious. One of the fish meals was not so great, they took care of it right away. The kids had a 10oz steak which may have been the smallest size. Sides were large, so we passed them around family style. Desserts were also very good. All in all, Brandon and Cabernet made our family night out great! read more

Came here while on Business in Alpharetta. I have had much better steaks at Texas Roadhouse. Let me be clear, the atmosphere of the restaurant is nice. Very open dining area with adequate seating. The service was great, the food is another story. My first steak was over cooked as I asked for medium rare and my steak came out medium (sear was really nice). They brought it back and brought me another steak that had a worse sear, looked smaller than the 22oz the steak was supposed to be. It, too, was medium. I ate it anyway, I was hungry. I am skeptical about the menu because they are claiming their steaks are USDA prime. My steak, albeit was over cooked, tasted like Choice grade meat. It was chewy, lacked salt and pepper, and reminded me of steaks I've eaten at places like California Pizza Kitchen and Outback. If this was indeed a Prime steak, it did not taste like one. I cook Prime beef at home frequently and the steak that was served to me did not taste close to what I cook at home. They do not use a high temperature broiler to cook their steaks like most high end steakhouses do. They use a grill. This can explain the lack of punch of beef flavor that one gets from broiled steaks. I ordered a Bulleit Manhattan and got watered down Bulleit on ice. It was not a Manhattan. There was no cherries! If you are hungry and got nowhere else to eat, come here. If not, places like Texas Roadhouse, despite having Choice meat, have great tasting steaks for a much cheaper price. read more

Food was decent, nothing special. I didn't like how my tuna salad as drenched in sauce. The tuna was not that flavorful, kind of salty. The filet mignon was tender and enjoyable. Again, nothing amazing. Beef carpaccio was decent as well, lacked interesting flavors. Also we waited at the front for 5 minutes until a host came to seat us. Service could have been better. I like the complimentary bread the most. read more

Outstanding service, mouth-watering food and deserts that make you feel like you need to go to confession! Looking for an intimate restaurant to celebrate our anniversary, so many reviews pointed to Cabernet. I was so glad that the date this year landed on a Tuesday, hearing out typically packed this place is on the weekends. Our server was attentive, professional and had a great sense of humor, making us feel more like family than customers. We shared the bone-in ribeye, cooked to perfection and the twice-baked potato for two and had plenty to take home for another meal afterward! To top it off, the bananas foster, served and flamed tableside was oh, I don't know...just naughty! It was so good I really felt that I should be confessing my sins somewhere. Bottom line...if you want to enjoy one of the best and longest-established (they say they've been in town for over 18 years) restaurants, treat yourself to Cabernet...then go to confession. read more

The service was impeccable!!! The steaks were cooked to perfection and delicious flavor as were the side dishes. Will always consider this our top pick for celebrating an important event. read more

Our server was very nice however, they offered us bread then later informed us they were all out of bread. My sweet tea was practically water. $13 for fried lobster tails and they were the size of shrimps. An hour later...only have salad, watery tea and no bread. For a $60 meal Im confused. read more

WOW. What a fabulous experience. Went here for my birthday and not only was the food AMAZING but the customer experience was even better. Our server went ABOVE and beyond to make sure it was everything we could have dreamed. Even ensured the kitchen made us things that weren't even on the menu!!! Made my birthday truly special and we will DEFINITELY be back for every special occasion :) read more

Omg what an experience! This place is amazing, the food, the ambiance, the wine list.. there is so much I could say but I really recommend not taking my word for it and just going yourself. It is a little pricey but my husband and I went for our anniversary so we didn't mind the splurge, we were prepared to spend the kind of money we spent. We will definitely be back. The service was impeccable! read more

We had a great Mother's Day brunch. The food was delicious and plentiful, better than any brunch I have been to in a long time. The staff are extremely attentive and go out of their way to ensure a fantastic meal. As a side note, our car would not start when we were leaving and the manager as well as the valet assisted us with a jump start to get us on the road which saved our holiday. They really went above and beyond. Thank you. read more

Best steakhouse in Alpharetta, hands down. Very good service, well timed. Came as needed, paced the meal well. I started with the iceberg wedge - delicious. I had the 8 oz filet - perfect medium rare as ordered. The broccoli and onion ring sides were very good. The restaurant was very busy for a Wed at 8:30 pm when we arrived with a nice energy. read more

We went to Cabernet as a family of 15 to celebrate New Year's Eve. We knew it would be crazy, and we were all very understanding that this was New Year's Eve and most of the staff would have probably preferred to have spent it with their own family. With that said, we tried to have a great time with our waiter, and actually make jokes and have conversation with him as the night went on. Before anyone of us placed our order we asked our waiter if we could split the bill. He said that it was not a problem but it would be best if it was done at the end of the night. So he went on and took everyone's orders. The food took a while to come out (but again understood, because it was New Year's Eve). When it came, it was good. Water was refilled promptly, drinks, desserts, etc. The service was pretty good. But, then came the bill.. At the end of the meal, our waiter came to us ask how we would be splitting the bill. It was explained to him, he seemed confused, but left and came back with items added on that we hadn't order and the each bill split up with the wrong items on it. This was not a problem, we went through it again, and he left. Things took a turn when instead of our waiter coming back, another waiter, who claimed to be the head of the staff came back. This was a mistake for two major reasons, one, he hadn't been there the entire night, he did not know who was sat where (which is there system) and who ordered what.The biggest issue, however, was that he came back with a horrible attitude and decided to only speak Spanish to us. Mind you, everyone at our table spoke English. There were members of our family that were more comfortable speaking Spanish and so among our family we may have been speaking Spanish at times, but this was never done with the staff at the restaurant. So, the intention for sending this new waiter to "figure" out our bills was clear and misguided. Even with that, we continued to be polite and cooperate. Our original waiter never came back to address anything. And unfortunately, it took taking a lot of attitude from this new waiter and 45 mins after our meal was done to figure out the bills. At one point, we wrote down on individual papers what each individual party had ordered using the codes and names used on their own bill to facilitate him splitting our bills and he refused to look at the papers. Literally, would turn his head to not look, and would instead offer comments like "This could not happen in restaurants in New York." What was almost comical about this interaction is that we were cooperating and listening to him but when anyone of us would talk he would tell us to calm down and that he was just trying to help but in reality we were calm and he wasn't listening. At times, again, refusing to listen. Though I feel like this experience deserves probably much less than three stars, I decided on the three stars because the food was good, the service was good while we ate, the restaurant was beautifully decorated for the holidays, the staff was dressed nicely and they were very presentable. This would have been a 4-star review just based on that. The issue, unfortunately, that soured the whole experience was splitting of the bill but mostly that exchange that was unsolicited from a waiter that was not part of the whole night. read more

Great atmosphere, wonderful food, and staff are always attentive. Best steakhouse in Alpharetta.

Our steaks were cooked perfectly the blue cheese mashed potatoes were awesome and the twice baked potato loaded with flavor.

We love Cabernet, steaks are prepared to perfection and special occasions are always meaningful. My husband would tell you that he LOVES the chocolate cake. Thanks for making our birthday celebrations wonderful. read more

I met the boys out for a cigar the other night, happier than ever to get a break from the office. I'm pretty much a once-a-year cigar guy, so it isn't something I normally do. Cabernet is the perfect place to relax with a cigar and enjoy a very good meal. The medium-rare steak came out exactly as expected and the cigar suggestion was what I was looking for. If you have the opportunity for a boys night out, and are looking for a fantastic steak, Cabernet is the right place to go. read more

I was feeling a little tired from traveling all day. It's a good thing I came to the Cabernet Steakhouse. The hostess was very accommodating. The place was packed! A one hour wait turned to 15 min as the hostess ran out and cleaned a table for us after we told her we didn't feel like waiting. The menu was overwhelming. The bread was delicious and so was my petite filet mignon. I had it perfectly cooked, rare. The texture just melted in my mouth. The flavors were simple and elegant. All the steaks come ala cart, so get ready to shell out more cash for the sides. I had the sweet potato and the mixed sauteed veggies. Everything was delicious. The service was good too. I highly recommend to anyone staying at the Hyatt who is looking to get a nice meal. The only downside is that the bar (which is closed off) is a cigar smoking lounge. BLEGH. read more

We had our 20th wedding anniversary here and it was excellent. The atmosphere is ritzy steak joint. I felt like I was in Chicago or New York but without the snotty attitude. Service was prompt, professional, friendly but not pushy. Just like us Southerners like it. I started off the night with a tasty Lobter Bisque. It was rich and had a couple of tablespoons of lump crab meat. A tad too much sherry for me, and I prefer the places that give it to you in a little pitcher thingy so you can pour it yourself, but it was still very good, and I didn't leave any behind. My lovely wife had the soup de jour which was a coconut chicken that had a hint of that lovely Thai influence but not so much that it would seem out of place in this fancy steakhouse. She loved it. Both soups were reasonably priced for a high end place like this. $6.95 I think. She had the Cabernet salad next, which was delightful and also well priced at $7.50. It had Palm hearts, Artichokes, egg slices and blue cheese with a nice basil dressing. I had the rich and decadent Seared Foie Gras which came atop a little salad with some very appropriate poached red apples that were the appearance of beets. They matched wonderfully with that goose's liver and I hope that Goosey is lookng down from Poultry heaven realizing his sacrifice wasn't in vain and was much appreciated. For our main course we split the Seared Spiced Yellow Fin Tuna which is sashimi grade rare tuna cut about as thick as sashimi with a delicious sauce atop a nice selection of vegetables and a tasty wasabi mashed potatoes. We barely managed to finish it all, but it was so good that we did polish it off. We were full but when they brought us out a complimentary creme brulee with Happy Anniversary spelled out around the edges in molten chocolate along with complimentary coffee, we managed to tackle the dessert too. The night turned extraordinary when I opened my gift. Cabernet has a great cigar bar which my wife's friend recommended (who thanks to her suggestion to my wife about this restaurant is now my friend too). The gift was a nice fat stogie and a samurai-style cigar cutter. So after dessert we made our way to the cigar bar. It is completely enclosed off of the dining room with a super well done ventilation system so it was not very smoky at all. My wife actually said she could eat there and there are tables. It was spacy and elegant with a pianist playing classy jazz and blues. HP who has an office next door was having a party and a nice gentleman not only welcomed me in even though we weren't with his party, he offered me another cigar on the way out. Go HP! A most delightful anniversary. December 2012 update I ate here again twice in 2012. I had the standard prime ribeye. Not the one on the inclusive entree list (which is done differently). I mean the upper one for $37. I hereby award that steak as best steak I had in 2012. I went again and did the 2-person Rock Salt Herb Roasted. It was a fine steak, but not as good as the standard ribeye in my opinion. The crab cakes were great and I also enjoyed the norwegian salmon and escargot appetizers. This is one of my favorite restaurants. It remains a 5 star in my book. read more

Cabernet was one of the nicest steakhouses that I'd been to in a long time. They also prepared one of the tastiest steaks I'd had in well over a year. I was surprised to find out about their "half off" Wine List offered on Fridays and Saturdays. It was pleasing to find that these bottles were being sold at or near retail price, rather than the substantial markup commonly found at restaurants. This enabled us to order a bottle of wine without doubling the cost of our bill. Awesome. The soup du jour the evening that we dined out was a creamy garlic soup, which was sublime - rich and salty, but not overly so. The mixed greens salad, topped with bleu cheese crumbles, dried cranberries, and what I believe to be beets infused with a sweet licorice flavor (?) was tasty as well. 10oz Prime N.Y. Strip, cooked medium-rare, topped with bleu cheese and served with garlic parley potato puree. Yes, indeed. Though I've been disappointed with over-seasoned (salt or pepper) steaks, or steaks that barely had any sear marks on them, Cabernet nailed it. Seasoned just right, cooked to juicy perfection... the ideal restaurant steak. The service was also impeccable. Ultimately, Cabernet was everything that one would expect from a high-end steakhouse, at a price perhaps a bit lower than one would expect (near the $100-mark for two diners enjoying their steak dinners with a bottle of wine). Very Satisfied. read more

We had 20 guests seated in the porch - private dining room which was perfect. Loved the petite filet and warm spinach salad along with perfectly paired red wine and chocolate cake to die for! Another diner shared the amazing steak with béarnaise sauce and that melted in my mouth - it was very tender and well seasoned with amazing flavor. The service was Impeccable with drinks and water refreshed and plates cleared as if by magic. The atmosphere is upscale and classy and you can smell the cigars when you walk into the cigar smoking area. A definite winner and I want to return read more

Not since Vegas @ Austin's steakhouse have I delighted in a wonderfully flavored steak. The wife and I ordered the 54 oz rock salt herb roasted ribeye for two medium well. It's a bit pricey, but oh so worth splurging on at least once. It was a lot of steak that we ended up talking home, but it was even tastier as leftovers. As far as side dishes, we ordered potato gratin and sautéed mushrooms w/ onions, neither of which I'd recommend. Finally, the service was excellent. All bussers and servers were very attentive and nice. read more

A masterpiece of a burger. The J/J Burger Tour has discovered an amazing place. It is first class. It's known as a steakhuse, but we went after a burger. These guys were so accomodating. Burgers are not even on the dinner menu but they brought us options for burgers during lunchtime and we chose from 5 kinds. Both of our burgers only cost $9 each. I had the Cheddar burger. It was flawlessly cooked. Certified Angus, prime/choice. 80/20. It had a char on it that cannot be faked. Cooked perfectly medium, it has juicyness in every bite. As I ate the burger, it stayed warm, and I gave it a gentle squeeze and juices from the meat came out. You can't fake that. The fries were among the best of all time. Seasoned with Old Bay. Jennifer's burger was the Southwest Burger. It had avacado, pepperjack, and habanero corn salsa. And served with a beautiful sweet potato. Also had the fried lobster tails as an appetizer. Split tails, lightly battered and deep friend. Served with Homemade potato chips and honey mustard. This place is wonderful. Service was wonderful and efficient. Executive Chef Richard Holley came out to greet us after we ate and asked about the Burger Tour. We gave away a couple of business cards and made some new friends. Love this place . I'm coming back for a steak. read more

Having worked on Windward for 6 months now, I had heard a lot about Cabernet. Without ever having dined there, I established firm ideas that it was 1) fabulous & 2) expensive. Although I have also heard stories of some wild evenings spent at the cigar bar here... I was under the impression that it was the sort of fancy place that you don't go to for a spur of the moment Friday lunch. Luckily for me, my co-worker decided it was exactly the sort of place we should head to for an unplanned lunch yesterday. As we walked in I imagined all of the high profile business deals that was most definitely occurring before my very eyes. I put on my best sophisticated demeanor, but soon realized it wasn't really necessary. Our waiter was very down to earth. My meal was indeed fabulous, I had the prime rib sandwich (french dip) and we shared potatoes au gratin which were 'melt in your mouth' good. This place will continue to rate high in my book. And if I ever get into a business where I'll be making million dollar deals, this is the kind of place I hope to do it in! read more

Dinner with a business prospect. Service marginal. Won't come back for business again. Need consistent experience. 5 people. New York strip ribeye And filet diners -none of whom finished their meat. One sweet potatoe underdone and two baked potatoes overdone. Overall Disappointed. The maitre de was great and the restaurant looked great but overall disappointed. read more

This is the perfect place to eat at with an expense account or fancy date. I shared the Signature 54oz Ribeye with my coworker and it was excellent! The potato gratin was the best I've ever had. It's expensive here and the whole place smells of cigar smoke ... in case that bothers you. read more

Why 5 stars? I am not aware of a place as conducive to a traditional business meeting as this. Yes, there are cigar bars around, but this is a traditional white tablecloth place that you can go to the bar area (nice tables) and sit down, do the cigar thing, and drink Scotch. Wow, I guess I'm a grown up now. Anyway, I have a client that is older and really likes this atmosphere. The place was super conducive to getting done what I needed to do (and leave buzzed and smelling like an ashtray). read more

I first dined at Cabernet about eight years ago when I first moved to the Atlanta area. It was one of those client dinners where the CEO wanted to impress a prospective customer with the stuffiest, most hoity-toity meal possible. Cabernet certainly fit the bill. Mostly what I remember from that dinner was formal classic steakhouse atmosphere. Oil paintings, lots of dark wood, starched white uniforms, and those pewter wine buckets that sit on a stand next to the table. That's not typically my scene so I didn't return until about a week ago when a colleague wanted to unwind with a stogie and a libation at Cabernet's cigar bar. On first inspection it didn't look like anything had changed in eight years. Same stuffy dining room, wood paneling, pewter wine buckets all still there. Because we visited during lunchtime the restaurant was mostly empty. We were quickly ushered into the bar and seated. I had never been in the bar, but it had a really cool old-school feel to it. Still abundant dark wood and oil paintings, but also private wine lockers with little brass placards for the regulars and VIPs. The area is completely enclosed and separate from the main dining room, so smoking is allowed. That's a rare thing these days. It seems like even bars that permit smoking often frown upon cigars, but Cabernet welcomes it - as long as you order from their cigar menu. We decided to eat before lighting up, so we took a look at the menu. The lunch menu was surprisingly affordable and there was a lot of variety. I opted for a burger and fries ($9) and my colleague ordered a steak sandwich. My burger was cooked perfectly medium rare and it was delightfully juicy, topped with avocado, corn relish and cheese. Quite tasty and reasonably priced. The steak sandwich also looked tempting and my colleague assured me it did not disappoint. After eating we ordered cigars and drinks from the bar menu. There is a fairly nice selection of stogies available and the prices aren't outrageous. I selected an Ashton VSG ($11) and paired it with a White Russian ($10). It's clear that Cabernet maintains its humidor well, because my cigar wasn't dried out in the slightest and it had a nice, smooth draw. The drink was nice too and I enjoyed several of them before snuffing out the stub about an hour later. I was pleasantly surprised on my return visit to Cabernet. It's still not a place that I would likely choose for dinner, but for a nice lunch and/or drinks and a smoke, it's among the best options in the Alpharetta/Roswell area. Definitely a nice place to meet up with friends or coworkers if they enjoy that kind of thing and have an hour or two to kill. read more

A good friends' birthday dinner brought me across town to cabernet. We had a private room setup upstairs which was really nice the overlooked the whole restaurant. Upon arriving, me my wife grabbed a drink at the bar. Now the bar.. It's almost like a cigar lounge. There was live music and a jazz singer there which was surprising because I was not expecting it. I got a simple Jack and coke. It was mixed very very strong. Although it was overly strong, I did appreciate that the cute bartender was not skimpy pouring the shot :) I had tried a piece of the lobster tail which was part of the appetizer. I'm a cheap mofo and I couldn't see myself spending like $40-50 on the piece of steak ranging 9-14OZ. They do have this rock salt and herb steak for Two which looked delicious. I got the garlic and herb roasted prime rib which was very juicy and flavorful and the portion was big and hearty as well. My wife got the grouper special, it was good but nothing to write back home about. Now the sides that you get with the steaks.... loaded potatoes were enormous and really loaded..I would recommend. creamed corn was good too. All in all it was a good meal. me and my wifes dinner and a bottle of wine($45) with gratuity came out to be $150. Good food, Good service but not for the broke. I would return if the occasion called for me. read more

This is a serious steakhouse. If you want to impress a client/date/family member, or like me both times I've gone, you find yourself being treated to a meal by someone with an expense account, this is the place to go. Their steaks will melt in your mouth and even the soups and salads are delicious. Service is top-notch with a head waiter and 1-2 assistants taking care of your table's every need with speed and efficiency. read more

I just loved the food and service here. Maybe it was the company I was with too that made the difference too. Upon entering the establishment, it just reminded me of some posh NY steak place where all the big players go. The wait staff wears the traditional white house jackets which gives the impression of high quality poshness. The hosts were professional and we were seated right away and to the left of the dining area is a cigar bar cordoned off by a wall and glass, so I was able to glance over and check out the cigar aficianados during my meal. The escargots in pastry crocks immediately caught my eye and the foie gras salad intrigued me. My colleagues ordered the traditional steak and surf stuff and heard positive feedback. Not sure of my appetite, I opted to start small. Well, the escargot was absolutely divine and delicious. The delicate pastry crust with the pernod garlic butter was positively dreamy. I'm glad my comrades don't like escargot so I could have this as part of my meal. The foie gras was savory and melt in your mouth goodness . It appeared as a small side salad dish. I was still very satisfied with it and realized at that point I did not need to order another full entree. The salad contained sliced green apples, red beets(?), a super tasty raspberry vinaigrette type of dressing, all very perfectionly proportioned and presented with the flavors complementing each other. I could have ordered another but overdosing on something as savory and special as foie gras should not be done. I was full but just had to try the peanut butter chocolate pie with Oreo crust. Just what I loved about dining here, I can go from high brow escargot and foie gras to a more down home humble pie which they did not skimp on either. The thick generous finely crumbled Oreo crust made the difference in this pie since I always favor crusts in pies. The filling was just sweet enough and wasn't just creamy overly sweetened mush. Next time, I'm in town, a stop here is definitely a must! read more

Tonight was not a good night at Cabernet. To begin, we had reserved a certain table, which was confirmed but upon arrival we were guided to an alternate table; on its own not a big deal. I then was provided a water glass smeared with lipstick; simply unacceptable. The service was poor, despite a "team" approach inattentive is the most postive description. A dozen oysters were ordered and eight were delivered with an explanation that four were exceptionally large so we received less, who does that? The server was very unclear about the salads being alacarte and not a part of the meal price, perhaps we should have been more alert. One of our party requested his soup be delivered with the appetizers, the soup was delivered after the appetizers had been finished; a clear miss. Another of our party has their dinner served at the wrong temperature and had to be returned to the kitchen for additional cook time. We experienced exceptionally long gaps (45 minutes to an hour) between courses and we could not get the attention of our server(s). I literally had a coffee cup taken out of my hand. The explanation being that the new cup was more fresh, very odd. There were four of us, two couples, and we requested separate checks, but evidently splitting the cost of the appetizers was not an option so the full cost ended up in one bill. There were a couple of bright spots: the valet was top-notch, the server caring for the water glasses was on her game and overall the food was tasty. All that being said I am not certain we will be visiting Cabernet any time soon, if ever. Very, very disappointing for the price point, or any price point for that matter. read more

I have to agree with the 1st reviewer (Bill), this place is great for client lunches and the food is out of this world. However, be prepared to pay for "out of this world", as it is a high end restaurant. Although it is still cheaper than the $200,000 Virgin Galactic Ticket which takes you out of this world too. You have to try their lobster Bisque, it's breathtaking. read more

So where to start. I was here to attend a dinner hosted by a pharmaceutical company. One of the representatives was there to make sure the event went well, and take care of any questions from guests. He told me he had a contract for a large rom for 25 people. He had 27 people arrive and 4 more could not attend because of lack of seating. Several guests complained the staff was using inappropriate language under their breath. Half of the diners got their meals on time, while the other half waited another twenty minutes. The service was quite poor. Many orders were not even correct. And the girl beside me ordered lobster but received no warm butter. I finally spotted some outside the room, and grabbed it for her. Very shocked at the serviced. The food here was actually pretty good. I had the Chilean sea bass and it was cooked well, and was flavorful with a slight crisp around the edges the way I like it. The bread they serve to start is really good, and it tasted fresh. I wasn't crazy about the key lime pie. It just didn't have enough punch for me, but it did taste homemade. All in all, I'm quite torn on coming back. Service is part of the experience, and they failed on this one. read more

The place was warm and cozy, all dark woods and white coated staff. Although a little on the pricey side everything was worth the cost. We sampled almost a third of the menu and found nothing that wasn't delicious. The steaks were amazing. read more
