This is certainly a destination for special occasions or if you want to treat yourself to a better than...

Visited 1886 Thursday 22nd sept. This was restruant week, I applaud the owner of putting together a menu of dishes for one basic price. It takes away the difficulty of choosing a meal in a fine dining location on the basis of cost. Many times I have been tempted to try more adventurous meals but was put off by the...

Went with 5 girl friends. When they walked in their eyes rolled, they were so impressed with the decor. It really is an elegant restaurant. We all had an appetizer, dinner and desert. Wonderful. Can't say enough about this place. Highlight of our trip. A little pricy but well worth it.

To reach this extremely elegant restaurant, you must walk through a courtyard and past the outdoor dining area. Inside you will find a beautiful and charming restaurant. This is extreme high-end dining with properly attired wait staff. While there does not seem to be an enforced dress code, you will want to dress up a bit. It will add to...

I have dined at many fine dining establishments all over the world. Circa 1886 is a nice fine dining restaurant. However, their wait staff come off as pretentious snobs. Let me rephrase that, our server came off as a pretentious snob.
We arrived a little before our reservation time. We sat in the bar and my wife enjoyed a nice...

For the program. We had a set budget and every detail was discussed. They are true experienced professionals.
The 5 course dinner was Phenomenal! Even though it was...

I enjoyed the chef's seven course meal and couldn't fault a thing. The service was faultless and the atmosphere is cozy and intimate.

When we made this reservation, we actually did not realize it was going to be restaurant week. So we were thrilled to choose the menu that came with wine pairings. Each wine was chosen to perfection! We were treated to start with a complimentary taster and then a complimentary soup. The soup was lobster bisque made with blood orange. Hands...
