Waxwings - Hatfield

My new favorite restaurant! Went to Waxwing for the first time tonight. We shared the oysters, green salad, pasta Bolognese and Fluke special, chocolate torte, butterscotch pot de creme Every dish was thoughtfully prepared and delicious. Great craft cocktail options and wine. The atmosphere was very intimate, the music was great, the service was exceptional. Did I say the service was exceptional? We felt very attended to from the minute we walked through the door. Very welcoming.

Hands down the best place I'll be back stopped in for a few drinks and then had dinner the cook hands down the best ever the steak was out of this world the brussel sprouts unreal the service was unbelievable great place can't say nothing bad Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $50–100 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

AMAZING experience. Will be the first to admit, as a French man who traveled all over the world, it is hard to impress me. I had not been BLOWN AWAY by food like this in YEARS! Chef Paul and Kristina (bartender/server extraordinaire) were FANTASTIC!! In the very short time it will take for this place to BLOW UP in popularity, I suggest eating there AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. When they get their first Michelin star, it will be harder to do so Vegetarian options: AMAZING tasting vegetarian menu! Non-vegeterian guests of our party got just as blown away as we were with their Brussel Sprouts Dietary restrictions: I can't eat onions or garlic. The staff was incredibly careful and spoke directly to the chef to make sure everything we ordered was ok!

The energy and excitement and creativity of the staff at Waxwing cannot be contained!! This buzz is naturally reflected in patrons visiting the restaurant, so be prepared for quite the hubbub in the main room- not a place for a quiet romantic gathering. That said, I love Waxwing: the creativity in food prep is superlative, as well as the kitchen staff 's attention to detail. Yum to the 10th degree! Love the different, varied wine menu, with selections you won 't find elsewhere. For instance, I love Langedocs, from southern France... and they have 3 on their wine list. Do not go there and complain about prices, please! This kind of quality and attention comes at a price. Go there and celebrate good food unabashedly! (i.e., without concern for price! May they live long and prosper!!

I had dinner there earlier tonight for my birthday. Service was top notch as usual and I had the duck, which was a special this evening, and it was phenomenal. I don't usually write reviews but this genuinely was one of the best meals I have ever eaten. I cannot recommend enough. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
