Amber Cutting My husband and I decided to celebrate our 21st wedding anniversary here. We enjoyed the food immensely and Abby was a delightful server. She went above and beyond to make our evening even more special. I highly recommend coming for a special night out. We will definitely be back!

P Damian (Louis Cyphere) We have arrived for dinner on Wednesday evening. For a weekday evening, it was crowded. We actually had to wait for a table, but I wasnt long and was worth it. Food is good - and reasonably priced. Steaks are cooked to order. Plenty of appetizers to chose from, same with entrees. I believe anyone can find something to their liking - from steaks to chicken and burgers, and seafood options. Parking lot was almost full, but we were able to find a space. Staff is friendly and efficient.

Susan Guggenheim Everything was excellently prepared and served. The food is fantastic. This trip I had the pork ribs in sauce and chofan (chicken fried rice) and an amazing avocado salad! My friend had fried chicken and chofan. We also bought their shrimp and octopus cold salad. Delicious! The cleanest! The friendliest!

N weathers I came here with a couple friends for a birthday dinner on Saturday evening. The service was very fast and professional. I had the grilled mahi-mahi over creamed corn and it was so flavorful! Our waiter, Jamie, was wonderful and even surprised us with a birthday dessert of raspberry sorbet. That was the perfect palate cleanser! The Juniper Rosé was delightful! Definitely will visit again when I’m in town. Parking was so close by as well.

A B My husband and I only tried the potato samosas and a piece of the baklava because we were trying things from several of the stands at the Southern Market as it was our first time there, but they were great! I definitely want to come back and try some of the other dishes they have. The owners of the stand were very friendly as well!

David Geaney Such a great and quirky place to visit and take oit of town guests. Great staff and they have a fantastic assortment of fun cocktails. Love their shots - we did the Heaven, Hell, Death and Afterlife. So much fun watching peoples faces after drinkong the Death shot. The food is pretty tasty also. Overall, a fun place to hang out.

Zee Miller Beautiful lounge! Our waiter was so attentive and friendly. The mocktail mojito was fantastic. The Rosé i had was also delicious too. The avocado fries were so so so good!!!!

M Roman Chips and salsa were the best ones I’ve ever had! So delicious. Service was extraordinary. The atmosphere was chic, trendy and beautiful. The spicy burger was tasty, the Mac and cheese with pork belly was the best dish we ordered. Tacos were just ok. Definitely stick to the burger and Mac and cheese. The cocktails were well crafted and refreshing. We’ll definitely be back to try more !

Charlie Stout Amazing amazing amazing! We ordered three dishes, the Pork Sekuwah, the Himalyan Masala (chicken), and a butanese dish Datsi (chicken). We also ordered Momo dumplings. We shared and got to taste everything. Each dish was unique, absolutely fresh, and delicious. The Masala is similar to an indian Masala but more tomato forward. The Datsi was nutty and buttery. I hate to say I had a favorite because it was all soooo good, but we all raved over the Sekuwah. The pork was seasoned and cooked to perfection and came with a special sauce for dipping. On top of the delicious food, the ambiance was spot on. It felt like walking out of a snowy mountain village into a warm Nepalese mountain cabin. What sounded like Indian (similar cultures) music playing softly. Prayer flags hung across the ceiling. Ive never been to Nepal but I felt like we got a small taste of their food culture today. Thanks to the owner and his wife for a wonderful experience.

Taylor Scott Finally made it to 401. I have to say they lived up to the hype. Absolutely perfect service, I couldn’t say enough about the whole team there, everyone was focused son ensuring we had a great experience. The atmosphere is is very chill and relaxing. I loved the presentation of everything they served, from drinks to the food, was all presented in the finest way. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice experience !!!!

Donna Mallik We went yesterday to celebrate our Son, Alexs birthday! What amazing service and spectacular food! Our server, Bennie, was tremendous, kind, attentive and charasmatic! Not sure how to upload unfortunately. For appetizers, we had the house made bacon, antelope and octopus- wowza! All super great. Main courses chosen were filet with bone marrow butter( phenomenal), scallops( amazing) and the huge crab cake( fresh and superb). Cant wait to go again, maybe sit at one of the bars. Wonderful time, elegant atmosphere! Just wish I know where to upload pics of the food. Each dish was a piece of art :)

Jennifer U This is a special treat for the carnivores of the world! They start out by explaining the "salad bar" which is not just salad, but grilled vegetables, special cheeses, fruits, charcuterie and then the "hot bar" which has beans and rice, mac and cheese, candied bacon and more. But dont fall for it! Get yourself a nice little sampling, but save your appetite for the meat! They keep it coming!! The staff were so stealthy, sliding up and slicing off the most tender cuts, cooked to perfection and just seasoned enough (I usually salt everything and didnt touch it!!) I think we loved the sirloin the best, until we finished the night with a perfect, filet mignon. They had lamb, sausages, some pork, chicken wrapped in bacon and beef, beef, beef! Always warm, medium, medium rare, however you like it. They also brought small dishes of mashed potatoes, potato wedges and fried bananas, plus these little cheesy popover things for the table to share. Tasty, but dont fill up. I think these are decoys to throw you off the real prize, the steak! The staff were so attentive, they remembered how you liked it cooked each time they came around. And, by the time you put down your empty glass of Brazilian lemonade (a touch of sweet milk in lemonade), a fresh glass was there to replace it. I cant believe they had the audacity to ask us if we wanted dessert...if Id had an inch of space left in my stomach, Id have had more beef! Its expensive for sure, but when you want yo treat yourself, or celebrate, you deserve this experience! Go for it!

Zak Shope My girlfriend and I visited Passerine and it was one of the best experiences we’ve ever had. The staff was great. Super friendly and our server was awesome. The food was honestly some of the best food we’ve ever had. We ordered quite a bit. Everything we had was amazing. From the drinks to appetizers and entrees. The chef and his team do an amazing job. Highly recommend!

Katey Durbin Nice, on-theme Irish Pub with a good selection of inspired dishes. If you like lamb, the shepard’s pie is excellent. The onion soup and chocolate tart were also very good. Vegetarian dishes also available. Great price for a comfortable and delicious dining experience.

Lisa Bailey Our server Benny was the best! I asked a silly question I wanted a beer that was sweet. He gave me rotunda, rainbow nerds, beer. I love it! So much I had to buy it to take some home. The food was wonderful. Our server was awesome! We had a great time.
