"What a wonderful find for dinner with friends ahead of an event at the Van Wezel. Everything was Perfect! The Server made great recommendations, all of which were impeccable! The Chef offered up Canapés for our table which went down very well, our favourites where the Lamb Shank, Scallops and Risotto with Mushroom Short Ribs!! For dessert U have to try the Expresso poured over Vanilla Ice cream, it was a perfect way to finish our wonderful meal! This is a definite for dinner whenever you're in the mood for an elegant upscale experience with great food, servers and atmosphere. An easy 5 stars!!!!"

"We were invited for a friend’s birthday dinner. Great service, even better atmosphere and the best food. Spencer the owner really put a great restaurant together. Our waitress Barbara was great! Attached a picture of the separate room we had."

"How have we missed this gem before now. Lovely dinner tonight with great service from Barbara. Also Anthony, the GM, came to check on us to insure we were enjoying our meal. Food was delicious! The restaurant is very quaint and also has on outdoor patio for seating. We will definitely go back!"

"We had a wonderful dinner tonight! Chef Spenser did not disappoint. We sampled a variety of gourmet dishes, and all were cooked to perfection. I would definitely recommend 481 Gourmet!"

"One of my favorite restaurants in the area! The most delicious unique dishes. I would list some of my favorites from my trips to this restaurant, but honestly everything on the menu is to die for (definitely, don’t skip the cheesecake). You just have to try it for yourself! The staff are equally as amazing and attentive. 10/10 experience all around."
