“ Great for a date night. If you like bourbon you will live thier selection of private picks and allocated bottles. My wife enjoyed the wine recommendation for our server. The daily chef specials were amazing. ”

“ McEwen’s was a great find! The food and drinks were great! I had the beef tenderloin, it was delicious. The potatoes were amazing, and the asparagus was cooke perfectly. My husband had one of the specials, a pork chop served with grits which was just ok. The crab cakes were really good! What stood out for us was the atmosphere and the service!! Literally every person we came in contact with was so friendly and helpful. Also, if you like old fashion, this is the place to go! ”

“ In town for work and stopped in to eat. Everything we had was delicious. We started with the baked Brie. It was perfect. A coworker got the organic chocolate stout beer. It might be the best I’ve ever had. I got a smoked Manhattan and it was made perfect. For my entree I got the Pork Buco. I had never had it and got to say it was so good. It sat on a bed of grits that were absolutely delicious. I’ll be back here for sure. We didn’t need a reservation but you might want to make one in case it’s busy. ”

“ Loved McEwen the atmosphere food and drinks everything was amazing. John-Michael took care of our party of 11. Will definitely go back ”

“ What a wonderful Meal in a great place. Low top room is elegant and quiet enough to talk in. Food was perfect. Unusual twists which it new American foodie stuff. High end but worth it! (Starters were 15, with side salad you could make a 25/person meal). Pea hummus was special!!!!! Sides were delicious. ”

“ It is my first time at McEwen’s, and the attendees and waiters were really approachable, and I love how they feature their today’s special menu which is grilled fish with blue cheese mashed potatoes and sauteed Brussels sprouts. As a newbie, I tried their today’s special dish. I absolutely loved this dish! Every component in that dish was well seasoned and balanced! I cannot wait to visit this restaurant again to try other dishes! ”
