In Short
Swanky yet friendly, this upscale steakhouse caters to large groups with seating in the mezzanine, fireplace room and wine cellar. Meat eaters and seafood lovers fixate on specialty dishes like fresh-shucked oysters and beef tenderloin carpaccio, plus bone-in ribeyes, lobster scampi and pan-roasted halibut.

I've had two experiences with Cabernet.The first time I went with 3 other people and the place was empty. I mean empty. We were snottly asked if we had a reservation. The server was rude and the food was ok. Several years later I returned with my husband. At Christmas we were given a gift certificate for a meal at Cabernet. A few months later we went to Cabernet. My husband told the manager (who was seating people) we had a gift certificate. He would not honor it. He said it could be a copy since it wasn't in an envelope. Obviously,it was authentic. So the person who bought our gift certificate in essence was robbed. I will never go back.

Pros: None

Cons: Snotty staff, will not honor gift certificates,food is just ok,valet parking unnecessary

My boyfriend and I went to dinner at Cabernet. We expected a lot more. We dine out a lot and do not mind paying for quality service, wine, and food. We were sat at a table for 6-8 people and it was only the 2 of us. The hostess promised we would be comfortable but we were not. The 2 servers we had were clearly not trained for fine dining but now I know Cabernet is NOT a fine dining establishment. It took 15 minutes to get our wine, water, and bread. The lobster bisque was very salty. The steak was below average. We think the grill needs to be cleaned off because the charred edges had a bad flavor. At the end of the meal, one of the servers cleared the table by stacking our plates so high that another staff member had to come to her rescue. We hardly ate our entrees and neither server inquired why. After our credit card was processed the other server came over and handed us the dessert menu. They communicated like this through the entire meal. A lot of the guests were in jeans and one lady was in a sweat shirt. I guess they do not have a dress code. It was a very LAME experience and we do not intend to go back.

Pros: I never have to go back!!

Cons: staff, ambiance, food
