This restaurant manages to strike just the right balance between friendliness and professionalism. From the minute you walk in the door, you feel welcome and well cared for. The chef’s tasting menu with wine pairing was fabulous! We loved how our server explained each beautiful, delicious course, and James, our sommelier, gave us a terrific and fun description of each wine we had. My favorite course was the cavatelli and my favorite wine was the one served with it — a chasselas from Switzerland. I didn’t even know there was wine from Switzerland. James made it fun to learn about wine. The timing on each course was impeccable. We look forward to coming back soon.

Food was good up until I order my ribeye which wasn’t cooked and had a lot of fatty content. Additionally, the server rushed us and didn’t allow us to choose our wine instead made crappy suggestions.

Our celebratory group of 3, reduced by half due to a Covid infection, had the fixed price 3 course dinner. Some courses were repeated but we each had one of the entree selections; the pasta may not have been a wise choice for someone wanting to eat lightly but the beef duo I had was scrumptious. My table mate and I also loved the burrata salad, I loved the s’mores dessert although it wasn’t panna cotta in a traditional way. Luckily the hostess lead us to a table a little away from larger groups so our conversation flowed easily. It’s a beautiful setting and remarkable food.

I recently celebrated my best friend's 40th birthday here, we were a party of 6. It was the best birthday dinner ever. As I choose this place, everyone kept saying thank you to me & complimenting me for making such an amazing choice. We drove from Maryland for 45 mins drive and it was so worth it. I personally will advise coming here during daylight to enjoy the outdoor views & take beautiful pictures outside. Love nature & ponds with fishes outside. The service was fantastic throughout our dinner. Our head server was amazing and he made our celebration so extra special. We had a personalized menu with a Happy 40th Birthday, Name on each & every menu given to us. We did the Chef tasting menu and it was so worth it. The birthday girl got a complimentary small birthday dessert with a candle and we all got complimentary mini cupcakes & chocolates for the table. The food was top-notch. I highly recommend this place to all.

We were celebrating my friend's 70th birthday and they made it very special with a menu printed for him wishing him a happy 70th birthday, a delicious birthday dessert with a candle and the waiter wishing him a happy birthday when he first arrived at the table. The food was scrumptious, the service was excellent. The waiter was attentive and very pleasant and competent without being overly intrusive. I had not eaten there since covid since we have not been dining indoors and was hoping it was still as good as we remembered from previous visits and were happy to find that is is still one of our favorite restaurants. We can't wait to return and would certainly recommend it for special dining occasions.

Excellent choice for a three course prix-fixe menu experience. Each choice was clearly the result of special preparation and had unusual features, that made each a special culinary experience. The server was helpful answering our questions and ensured that our entree of duck breast was cooked the way we wanted it. We appreciated the wine by the glass options, which were well-chosen. Altogether a very satisfying experience and will be repeated.

A wonderful evening with the chef's tasting menu and wine selections! Vegetarian offerings were praised by our veggie party member, with outstanding service and food for all. The koi outside piped us out as we left, no doubt wishing they were dining as well...

We treated a recent college graduate to his first meal at 2941. The wait staff explained to him that everything on the tasting menu, the prix fixe menu and the a la carte menu was available for his multi-course meal. Our guest ordered items from each of the menus, and, after taking one bite of the lamb duo entree, he declared that it was the best lamb dish he had ever had. The tuna tartare, the sea bass, the halibut and the duck breast were all outstanding. We're glad we saved room for dessert because the mango napoleon and the roasted cherries (and chocolate!) desserts were also superb. Kudos to Chef Chemel and the 2941 entire staff for another memorable meal!

We hadn’t been to 2941 in a number of years but were just as impressed as the last time. The service was impeccable and the food delicious. We had a variety of food and everyone loved it. We had a lovely wine with dinner. I tried my moms duck breast and it was juicy and tender and yummy. However the big winner for me was the Ribeye. It was melt in your mouth tender but full of flavor. Didn’t even need the sauce. I was also so impressed with their zero-proof drink Yuzu’s Revenge. Beautiful and so tasty. Highly recommend for a special occasion.
