The Board Room

The Motion is passed! The Boardroom in Erie, PA was a delight! The Chairman of our family (my father) was celebrating a birthday and the executive team (our family) decided to take him to the Boardroom for dinner! As this Birthday takes place near Thanksgiving, there tends to be snow in the mix. This year was no different except we had a ton of snow. Thankfully the restaurant stayed open and we had a delicious dinner. I enjoyed a frank Sinatra martini and ordered the reference NY Strip. It came out with shrimp on top covered in a sauce. As sides, there was garlic mashed potatoes and delicious green beans! These green beans had small slices of almonds in it and was cooked with a little garlic. They were perfect! The steak was well cooked and provided plenty of food! The chairman was happy with his reserve strip as well! Job well done! We will be back for another family board meeting.

Our team went to the Board Room for our Christmas party and received really good greeting. Our appetizers were wonderful. Everybody enjoyed and loved their meal. The portions were large and most everyone had to take something home. We finished with really good desserts that were incredible. Everyone in our party thoroughly enjoyed The Board Room.

This was our first time here. It was our wedding anniversary (so I let them know), and it did not disappoint. Great vibe. Sinatra and the rat pack. Marilyn Monroe. Old school, classic cool. The food was amazing. We both got steak. I would come back and eat a plate of the lobster croquettes. The Chef came out and thanked us for coming. Personally handed us this delicious dessert. Absolutely would recommend and will be back again.

This was.. hands down.. the absolute best dinner experience my hubby and I have ever had in Erie. The lobster bisque soup is the best my sister claims ever had. Chicken and mozz soup had deep developed flavor. Sandwiches (fish tacos and club) were very fresh and well proportioned. Sides were very good. Had to try a filet dinner so we ordered one of those to split. Cooked beautifully. Well seasoned. Literally cut it w a butter knife. I don't do lobster crochete, but my hubby devoured his half and most of my sister's. It reportedly had a bit of heat, but hubby appreciated the flavor depth. We couldn't leave without having the house made crème brûlée. My sister ranked it her second favorite she's had (she's a crene brûlée fanatic), and both hubby and I helped her. My criticism? Make it bigger! Make one shareable size! Perfect "tap." Nice cream. Other criticism? Find a new choc martini recipe. It should look inviting and have varied colors from cream to chocolate. Lemon drop martinis were very good. Ambiance is very inviting. Indoors is modern yet has an intimate touch. It rivals what we've had in Michelin star restaurants across the east coast. Def rivals more expensive restaurants in PGH. Service was attentive and personable.

TL; DR: Mediocre food and service at an expensive price.I visited for dinner on a Saturday. The restaurant was not full. The hostess seated us fairly promptly, but it took a long time to get service from a server (even water). The AC was set to 69 (probably a joke), which felt overly cold. The food was mediocre. The "Asian snap peas" (ooh, that sounds exotic) were just regular snap peas cooked in soy sauce. The filet mignon had too much salt. The mashed potatoes were not cooked well; they were shiny and had a gummy consistency with lumps. The creme brulee was not golden brown on the top and the top was not crispy. They also played "Baby, It's Cold Outside" (a song which has not aged well) in July.

I can here while visiting in town. I heard the food was the best in the city. The vibe is similar to room 33 but the recent renovation is very nice. The food was great. The lobster deviled eggs were excellent and I got the seafood special which was fantastic. The steak however that my friend had was very small. The drinks were all strong and good. We were surprised how empty it was for a Friday night.

I visited the Board Room for my birthday this weekend and was not disappointed. We got a charcuterie board and bone marrow to start. I found that the bone marrow was cooked to perfection, and the pesto that came with it was expremely flavorful. The charcuterie had a good variety of choices, but my favorite was one of the cheeses with a wine-like flavor. We also tried the lobster bisque which arrived piping hot to the table. It was a certain crowd pleaser. As for the gnocchi, I was surprised (but not at all disappointed) that the dumplings were stuffed with cheese. The shrimp seemed fresh and had a nice snap to it. Since it was a birthday celebration, we ended with cake. I ordered and enjoyed the black tie cake. One of the most impressive aspects of our meal was the exceptional service we received. Our waitress worked hard to make sure everything went right (even bringing out an extra lobster bisque to ensure we each got a steaming hot bowl). The cherry on top was the live music we got to hear. The musician played a selection of easy-going rock music (Led Zeppelin, Steelers Wheel, etc.) that the entire family enjoyed.

Was in town, wanted to take my mom somewhere for a belated Mother's Day. OMG! Everything we all ordered (4 of us) was DELICIOUS! It was so good I was there 3 times in that week.

My wife, daughter, grandson and son-in-law were their tonight 1-15-2025 around 8 for dinner after a school concert.The food was horrible, and the prices were insane for what they got!Wife got a fillet, cooked medium rare came out WELL DONE!!! $47.00. They cooked her another one which was cooked fine but was TOUGH like it was from Giant Eagle or it was a SIRLOIN!Daughter ordered a Capreese Chicken Salad, guess what NO CHICKEN!!!Grandson ordered Chicken Tenders and fries, Tenders were TOUGH and fries were COLD!Son-in-law ordered a RIBEYE cooked RARE it was MEDIUM $67.00!We will NEVRE EVER GO BACK and we used to like to place!

Host/server/bartender A++He really did an excellent job. Made us feel welcome, seated us promptly, explained the menu options/availability. His suggestions to add the scallops to our Shrimp Gnocchi, definitely scored with us as the scallops were cooked to perfection, the entree was incredible! Started with lobster bisque, which is very good and broccoli cheddar soup, very good too! We visit NE often and know good bisques. Not too rich.Creole shrimp Caesar salad was very good! The dirty martini was made exactly to order how we like it, no vermouth and grey goose. (Most servers like to change it to grey goose on the rocks with olives when we request no vermouth)Water melon martini was refreshing, was hard to choose between that and the smoked peach cocktail. Ended our meals with cheesecake (a little on the stale side, had a refrigerator taste to it) and an espresso martini. The only thing I'd change is some of the seating, the 4 tops down the center chairs were a tad uncomfortable, probably would have stayed for another round!
