They are also terrific partners in menu-creation as we planned our dinner, sharing their recommendations on what would be best based on the availability of ingredients. During dinner, each of the several courses were both meticulously prepared and beautifully presented. They describe each dish before presentation and are terrific at answering any questions we or our guests have had. Most importantly, each bite has tasted fantastic. On both occasions, our guests were truly impressed by the experience It really is a pleasure inviting them into our home. We enjoy our conversations with them in the kitchen both before and after dinner. We also appreciate how they step back during dinner and allow us to enjoy the wonderful food and the company of our guests. We won't be stopping with 2 dinners and have talked about scheduling them every 3 months. They truly create memorable experiences!

Matt brought everything- plates, glasses, all the food and spices and everything he needed to make a fantastic meal for all four of us. He showed up on time, and cleaned everything after he was finished cooking. Not only did he make four creative, savory courses, the food was just as aesthetically pleasing. I've since booked him for another event and can't wait to have him back. Chef Matt Collins is a skilled and entertaining chef.

First of all, their professionalism and mannerism is a Class A Act, and Chef Brian and his staff were extremely attentive to the guest and detail. The food was so artfully presented, simply mouthwatering, and some of the best that I've ever tasted in all of my 70 years!!! All of the guest in attendance left asking the same question ... "WHO IS THAT CHEF !!!" If you are planning an event, it is my suggestion that you adjust your calendar to fit Chef Brian's schedule. Heavenly Eats, without a doubt, has set the bar high!!!

What has happened to this restaurant? On February 19, we were really looking forward to a…read moregirlfriends' luncheon and were so happy to see one another. Unfortunately, from the moment we walked in, the experience felt off. The hostess was noticeably rude and dismissive, coming across as aloof and unnecessarily sharp, which made us feel unwelcome from the start, as though she were doing us a favor by seating us. After being seated, our coffee arrived lukewarm, and the carafe did not keep it warm. When I asked the waitress if she could refresh it, she told me she would need to charge for another coffee, though she offered to heat it in the microwave. That was disappointing. Granted, we were there about two hours, but the wait staff was a bit rude, too. The food was okay, nothing special. We truly miss the previous atmosphere and business model. I'm not sure what direction the restaurant is trying to take now, but it no longer feels warm, friendly, or hospitable.
