I was searching for a place to go for my boyfriend's birthday dinner and had no luck finding a decent restaurant. I stumbled upon The Gladly and saw they had pretty much the most extensive whiskey list I've ever seen at a restaurant, not to mention the great reviews. My boyfriend and I love whiskey so I made a reservation on the spot.
First impressions ranging from the decor to the mood lighting to the staff was exceptional. Our table was about 10 minutes past due but we didn't mind as we were hanging out at the bar enjoying ourselves and relaxing. The boyfriend had the Gladly Manhattan and it was probably one of the best Manhattan's we've ever had. Delish!
They were running a Restaurant Week special which included an appetizer, entree and dessert for $30. This was a phenomenal deal as one entree would cost you about $30 alone. Done! I ordered the Caesar salad, Chimichurri Chicken (which was perfectly cooked and so tender), and the White Chocolate Blondie for dessert. Everyone at our table ordered something different and they all had nothing but great things to say about their food. We had a little family style dinner going on as we all wanted to try what the other had. Definitely not disappointed by any of the dishes, including the special "Pickled Pork Temple" dish that our friend ordered at the behest of our waiter who was so lively and friendly!
This restaurant was a fantastic choice for a birthday dinner and we will absolutely be back for more! Thank you The Gladly for providing such a great atmosphere; the food, drinks and service was incredible!
