Service was great! Staff was super friendly, attentive, they ended up seating us inside on a cold night even though we were a large group and had previously set for patio seating. Even made me a whole new cocktail b/c I mentioned mine was a little sweet - Amazed! As for the food, Meh. Nothing was bad, but nothing was good. The duck was tough and difficult to chew, the cassoulet was bland, oh and the steak knives were so unbelievably dull we could barely cut through the baked potato let alone the steaks. It wasn't that it was terrible, but at the price point Gertrudes is asking, there's about 50 better restaurants within a 10 mile radius. Love visiting the gardens, but will not be back to Gertrude's.
