Halcyon

Food and service are top tier. Hubby and I visited for NYE dinner. We chose our selections from the pre-planned 3-course meal. Our main dishes were the grouper and short rib. DELICIOUS and fork tender! Our server Jason took great care of us and kept us informed and entertained. Will be back for happy hour!

I cannot say enough how much I enjoyed my dinner with friends here last night 12/17/21. From the atmosphere and ambiance to the service and the food.. everything was amazing. Our waiter Andy was exceptional and all the food we literally had almost every small plate and a few of the large ones was delicious.. hats off to the chef last night.. to get such spectacular dishes out to our table so quickly and nothing was subpar is an amazing effort.. our favorites were the pork belly wraps, the short ribs, Street corn fritters, Paella, and the potatoes. Even the tuna dish which is like a sushi dish and I don't eat sushi was delish Pictures don't do it justice because we started eating before most of them and forgot to even get pics but here are the few we did manage to get.. Not featured is the delicious chocolate ice cream and delicious pomegranate sorbet. Including a pic of our waiter Andy if you can sit in his area .. p.s. he did have his mask on the entire time he just pulled down to snap this pic The bar was amazing as well drinks were delish ... Another note I'm not sure if their menu online is completely up to date or if it changes as some of the things we had I don't see so be open to a new menu just in case you do go.. I wasn't disappointed

This place is on point always! Staff is always friendly! And just get anything mushroom whether it’s the mushroom toast sauce is fire! or the cake that looks like a mushroom - what a beautiful display. All veggies dishes are always amazing and cooked to perfection. Only thing that was “meh” was the corn fritters it’s too much breading.

One of the best dining experiences we've had in recent memory. From the moment we arrived for our anniversary dinner, we were treated like royalty. Mel was our amazing, detail oriented server, and Chef Jonathan whipped up some of the best dishes. We would highly recommend the scallops AND the Grouper, or Trigger fish. Loved the Jalapeno cornbread and ceviche. Everything was fresh and perfectly prepared. Great Uptown location for a romantic or special dinner out. Highly recommended!

Great vegetable forward options for vegan/vegetarians. Nice ambiance. I ordered the Fuego tequila drink, mezze plate, vegetable tagine, candy apple dessert, paella and also the focaccia which I highly recommend not pictured.

Creative craft cocktails though rather pricey. Matthew is a great mixologist though. Food was well flavored and nicely prepared. Went for Queens Feast week and was not disappointed in the menu offerings. The butternut squash soup is probably THE best I've ever had. The short ribs were excellent but the trout lacked some of the wonderful flavors in the other dishes. It gets 4 stars for 2 reasons 1. the food is supposed to be prepared there, yet they could not make allowances for lactose allergies. Guess they don't have olive oil or are so stuck on using butter that they cannot comprehend how to substitute. 2. this restaurant is actually located on the 2nd floor of the Mint Museum so you can take the elevator or ascend the rather imposing staircase out front. You will not enter the museum although the signs seem to indicate that you are. I had to call them to confirm how to get into the restaurant. Our wait person, Jane, was awesome. Great for a date night if you can get one of the tables near the window. Be prepared to pay for the experience. Honestly, I'm not sure if I'd return based on location, price and lack of food prep flexibility.

Impeccable service and food quality. Their food is also very reasonably priced. Excellent location; it’s attached to the Mint museum. A great restaurant to go to after an artsy visit to the museum!

My mother and I went to Halcyon after the early matinee show at the Knight Theater. I didn't know we needed a reservation but they were kind enough to squeeze us in. The food is by no means cheap, but every last thing we ordered was delicious. The cheese plate and jalepeno cornbread was phenomenal. My mom got a salad with bacon add free range chicken and she loved it. I ordered the scallops and they came with sauted corn and these red pepper potato cakes, delicious! And dessert...AMAZING!!! I had the chocolate nutella parfait and I added a scoop of the strawberry nutella ice cream, while my mother ordered the apple buckle. It was so good! Everything is farm to table and absolutely delicious. Our waitress, Brianna I think her name was, was exceptional. Sshe was very freindly and knowledgeable about the menu and was very helpful about suggestions. So to summarize, not inexpensive but excellent service, farm to table delicious food, and a nice atmosphere, completely worth it. A great night we thoroughly enjoyed. Will definetly be going back!

My husband and I were celebrating an early romantic Christmas dinner. We had foiegras, glazed apricots, pain perdu, scallops, pork belly, charcuterie, smoked prosciutto, coffee, vanilla ice cream spun with carrot cake amazing, cheve cheesecake, and raspberry coulis. Our waiters name was CINDY shout out. We tried EVERYTHING she suggested & it was so delicious! We will be back.
