The Glen

My reservation was at 5:15 today and I was here at 5:15, by the time the valet communicated and the hostess checked on our reservations, it was 5:18. We were not able to keep our reservations, but we decided to stay at the bar anyways. The shrimp appetizer was great and so were the truffle fries. Xavi saved the day for us. He had amazing recommendations and was very personable. I asked him to make a drink, and he made "La toxica". It was amazing, and his touches of mezcal really get me because my friend group doesn't like mezcal, but I do. I asked him to make 2 more drinks and the 3rd one was a matcha take. He said he doesn't like coffee, and neither do I... but we both like matcha, so he created a drink using matcha and it was absolutely amazing. I enjoyed the experience here, though my friend was originally upset because her birthday reservations were coming through, but Xavi made it worth it. He was such a fun personality to meet. If you come to this establishment and want to simply talk, catch a phenomenal snack, and possible have a little drink, I'd come here and ask for Xavi specifically. I can't guarantee you'll get an amazing experience if you don't have what I received. I'm sure everyone is great, but I got Xavi, so ask for him lol.

My friend & I chose this spot for our girls night. Our reservation was at 5:30 and we didn't leave until after 8. It's a whole vibeeeeee. Seth, our server, was the literal best & had sooo many great recommendations. My friend & I split everything. For the appetizer, we ordered the Jar of Lobster. It was pretty good although I wouldn't order it again. If I went back, I'd order the Black Rock Shrimp (they light it on fire somehow & it's so cool). For the salad, we ordered The Wedge salad and it was one of the BEST salads I've ever eaten! So tasty! For our main dish, we ordered the Seafood pasta. It was sooo friggin good. I don't typically enjoy red sauce but it was subtle not overpowering at all. We both ordered the Flirt Bird. It comes with this tiny rubber ducky. It was sweet and delicious. Be careful, it'll sneak up on you lol. The cooks split all of our meals for us which was topTier. & if you're there on a Sat night around 8pm there's usually an aerial dancer which was fascinating to watch!

When I had my sisters coming into town to visit and found out The Glen was having a Galentines Brunch, I knew I had to come swing by to finally check it out and I was not disappointed in the slightest. The service from the staff here is incredible! When we arrived for our reservation we were immediately seated at our table. One of my sisters has a knee injury, so we asked our waiter if it would be possible for us to move to the booth area to help my sister elevate her leg for her comfort, and our waiter was more than happy to accommodate the request. Our waiter was very good at checking in with us throughout our experience here, and would provide helpful recommendations on food or drinks when we were struggling with what to land on. He even made me a surprise fruity, sweet drink when I couldn't decide on something new for my next round. He ended up giving me a delicious red drink that had an adorable little heart straw. It was amazing! For brunch, I ordered the chicken sandwich which came with French fries and it was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. Plus it was gigantic! I was only able to finish half the sandwich and fries, but the leftovers I took home were great to eat later on in the day. The first drink I ordered was a painkiller, and it came in such an adorable cup adorned with flowers and garnished with an orange. I absolutely loved the drink and the level of sweetness was perfect for me. My sisters ordered the short rib hash skillet and mini lobster rolls, and they both loved their food! They also took home leftovers as the portions are pretty big for most items on the menu it seems. Throughout brunch, they had a DJ playing great music, and they even had an aerialist performing right in front of our table. It was wonderful getting to watch such a fun and talented performance! The inside of the restaurant is incredibly beautiful, and has plenty of areas to capture instagram worthy photos. Their flower wall with a swing was personally my favorite photo area. I highly recommend coming by for brunch or dinner with your girls, you will not be disappointed!

We stopped by early in the evening for a drink before heading to an event and ordered an Old Fashioned (requested to be not too sweet) and a French 75. The French 75 was just okay, but the Old Fashioned was awful--overly sweet with a strong syrupy taste.To make matters worse, the bar was filthy. They have what could be a stunning glass display for bottles above the bar, but it was covered in so much dust that it made me wonder if the entire restaurant was just as dirty.With so many other great options at The Star, I don't think we'll be giving The Glen another try.

Let me just say, the food (ahi tuna crudo, crispy brussel sprouts), drinks (Los cabos azul, Yolo) and ambience are great! Loved the DJ, he was playing all the hits and kept the vibes right. The bar was open and inviting which was great. What's crazy is this specific night that we went, there were seats available that we were headed to. As we went to sit down, one of the male host pushed us out of the way, only to seat a couple that was waiting at the front. The bar seats are first come-first serve correct? What he did was rude and not hospitable at all. He didn't apologize at all. This was shocking. My friends and I couldn't believe what had just happened. Luckily, we were seated after this incident pretty quickly and our waitress was super sweet, but that incident with that particular host put a bad taste in our mouths.

You likely go to this place for the ambiance because it has lovely decor a multiple spots for photo ops. They have aerial dancers although depending on where you sit you'll not be able to see them. Our table was wobbly and it took the waiter a long time to even ask for our drink order. We barely saw her and our water glasses were empty the entire time. The things we wanted to order most they were out of, which was surprising since it was early in the day. We made a reservation and told them it was for a birthday but they didn't pay much attention so that was a bummer. The food was not bad, but for the price I expected better service.

I'm shocked this restaurant has a rating of anything less than 4 stars. I spent mt birthday here and it was incredible! We walked in and were greeted with complimentary champagne! We waited about 15 minutes for our table (with a reservation) but between the champagne and live entertainment, I didn't even notice the wait time. We had the steak bites and the lobster jar for appetizers, and the ribeye and the short rib for dinner. The food was delicious, but it did take a while to come out. Our waiter made up for it though with 2 free drinks and the complimentary birthday dessert was so cute! I'd come here for another date night, girl's night, or whatever! The DJ played the best songs (definitely a millennial). I'm here for the food and the vibes. We'll definitely be back!

Beautiful ambiance but the food was incredibly subpar for the exorbitant prices.I ordered the gnocchi and it was swimming in oil, and my boyfriend got the short rib hash which was similarly very wet. Service was alright. We will most likely not come back, but it was a cute place to check out if nothing else - very nice features like the big flowering tree on the left and comfortable seating for the tables.

2024 Yelp 100 Challenge - #30The Glen is a great date night, girls night, or solo eatery. I love their decor and drinks options, and the food was great as well. I made a reservation for 6:30 and sat at the bar until my entire party arrived. Bar service was fast and friendly. I had the option to order food at the bar, but opted to keep may reservation and sit in the dinning area. Service in the dinning area was great. Our server shared popular food items and was very attentive. Order Spicy Ragatoni PastaSeafood Pasta with no scallopsTable Order - Truffle Fries & Brussel Sprouts Drink - Desperate House Wife

I booked reservations for the Glen for my husbands birthday and it did not disappoint. As you walk in, it's gorgeous inside with a flower wall & old fashioned phone booth. Perfect for pictures. The inside is so neat with wall murals, an awesome bar, and cozy seating. As we sat, they had a birthday menu printed with his name on it which was a cute touch. We started with cocktails (Aperol spritz and smoked old fashioned) both were fantastic. We ordered steaks for dinner and they had shareable sides, so we got the loaded mashed potatoes, and the carrot cake for dessert. Everything was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. During dinner they had an aerial show which was amazing. Over all it was the perfect place for a date night out with cocktails/dinner and we will definitely return.
