Maestro's Restaurant

"It pains me to write this review. However, if I didn't, some unfortunate people may make the mistake we did. After several years watching the restaurant go downhill. We gave it 3 chances to redeem themselves. We took friends for a night out for dinner & theater. They had never been to Maestros to eat. With much hesitation we decided to take one last chance in hopes that the evening would prevail in a positive light. WRONG, our 6 pm reservation failed us because of our server. We suspected he was drunk after he nearly knocked me out of my chair not once, but twice. Which at the time we laughed off. Only out of embarrassment. Food arrives an hour later. Leaving no time to enjoy dessert or coffee. The manager came to our aid. By this time it was 10 minutes to showtime and we all 4 were more than disappointed. When it was confirmed that an employee was drunk while serving guests. NEVER WILL WE BE BACK."

"We did not realize from the Strazz website that this dinner was a buffet... Which is not our first choice. However, the food was much better than we had expected and staff was friendly and nice. If you like buffets and if you like to eat a lot, this is a good choice before you see a show."

"Just. So. Bad...We were seated and instructed to begin at the salad/antipasti buffet, and told that our server would be by to take our drink and entree order. No plates were available at the buffet station. After notifying a nearby server of the plate situation, we (along with a group of others) eventually gave up and used soup bowls to gather what we could (mind you, we were all on a time table because of needing to make it to the show). Some of the soup bowls were dirty, which was unappealing (and especially unacceptable for a restaurant at this price point). It was another 15 minutes before I was able to flag down a server to take our order and get water. Service was slow, and it was not relaxing to have to continually check our watches as show time drew closer. The entrees were very average. They were out of the dessert we selected; instead, we got a very stale piece of bland cake. The server's comment was, "At least it was free; it didn't cost you extra." What??? Not sure how that makes sense because it was included in the meal's fixed price. Overall, an extremely poor experience. We found it very overpriced for the quality of the food, service and atmosphere. A 100% regret."

"We love a stop at Maestro's before a play. The service is always impeccable. Our personal favorite server last season was Wes, but they are all amazing. The food is fun and titled to match the play showing. Some dishes have been better than others, but nothing we have been served has ever been bad. They also go above and beyond to accommodate food allergies as one in my party has them, and this makes dining so much easier to know she is safe and the staff cares."

"We had a wonderful time. The waiter was attentive. The buffet salad bar was well stocked and our meal was great. It was our 36th Anniversary and the waiter must have told the chef because my chocolate dessert (meant to resemble Alps because we were seeing The Sound of Music) came with a sweet Happy Anniversary message."
