What a stunning location with some of the nicest staff and hostesses we’ve ever encountered! We dined at Last Refuge on an extremely busy evening, and although we were seated about 30 minutes past our reservation time, it was clear that guests were simply enjoying themselves and the incredible atmosphere. Honestly, that’s not a bad problem to have! The food was fantastic, although our cocktails didn’t arrive until after our meals were served. The hostess was incredibly apologetic, and it seemed they were a little short-staffed, particularly at the front door and possibly behind the bar. Despite these minor hiccups, everyone remained welcoming, gracious, and professional. In the end, we had an amazing 21st wedding anniversary dinner, celebrating in style with a stunning view of what might be the most beautiful bar we’ve ever seen. Last Refuge is truly a one-of-a-kind setting, and we left with wonderful memories of a very special evening. We’d absolutely return!

Our part of 4 all ordered different appetizers and entrees. Definite standouts were the short rib dinner and the seafood linguine. The service was excellent and the manager was especially helpful and friendly.
