Disappointed. First we sat in the lounge area for happy hour. Though not busy we were ignored. We then honored our reservation in the dining room. Pasta portions were small though tasty. Experience did not compare to CIA in Hyde Park.

Our experience at the Grove was outstanding. The food was excellent. Our waitress, sorry cannot remember her name, was bubbly and took time to answer our questions and even to joke around with the table.

So fun to explore the CIA grounds. The restaurant was gorgeous, service was great. The smoked trout appetizer was so delish we actually asked for more veggies to finish it off. Meatballs were fantastic. We returned the next day to walk the gardens in daylight and saw the bountiful produce.
