    Very pricey, which we expected, but I also expected a more elevated dining experience (something closer to the Saint Paul Grill). We didn’t get that. Service was average at best, and the seating felt cramped—like they were packing too many people into the space. The food was fine but nothing special, and the drink options weren’t impressive. I ordered an old-fashioned and it was easily the sweetest I’ve ever had. Didn’t even finish it. Overall, not worth the price point.

    When I'm in Bloomington, especially at midday, I don't hesitate to have lunch at Kincaids. The food and service is always very good, (plus, it is so convenient to get to the restaurant from the parking ramp, avoiding the cold weather). We tried their new desert, butterscotch bread pudding, a great addition to the desert menu.

    I came here for New Year’s Eve dinner and I enjoyed it. I really like the location. It’s so beautiful. It is a little tricky to find if you’ve never been there before, but it’s inside of like a business tower and you go like around the building and you’ll see a little parking garage and you park in there and then you can walk right to the door and it’ll take you to inside the building and then you walk down some steps and there is the restaurant. All I know, I have lovely experience. I will say that the fettuccine dinner I ate needed more seasoning. It didn’t have enough seasoning for my taste but other than that, it was such a nice place. I can’t wait to go back again.

    We arrived late to our reservation because of snow, they got us in and got our food out to us fast, so we even had time for desert before our concert! Great people there!

    I was quite disappointed with our dinner last night. We had a large party of 14. Reservations had been made several weeks in advance, giving ample time to staff and prepare. Despite having a guest with a walker, we were seated at the farthest back corner of the restaurant. The soft drinks were served almost immediately, while alcoholic beverages took 20+ minutes to arrive. The lighting was poor and the lettering on the menu was miniscule and in a pale font, making it very difficult to read. Bread was served once, and when it was gone, was never replaced. I ordered my steak well-done. The server asked if it could be butterflied, which I said was fine. When my meal arrived, my steak was neither butterflied, nor well-done. The bearnaise sauce, which I paid extra for, was served in a small ketchup-cup. It was runny, not creamy, and tasted like straight vinegar. I was not offered soup or salad. The plate presentation was bland and boring. The serving size for the $27 pasta dish that my partner ordered was small and had very little Italian sausage in it. It consisted of mostly noodles and sauce. Throughout the meal, which was quite long, our server did not return to ask how our food was or to offer drink refills. My drink was refilled only once when the meal was delivered, after which it had already sat empty for quite some time. Multiple pieces of unused drinkware were left on the already cluttered table until well into our meal, and our dinner was disrupted again by the placing of additional plates and silverware at each setting which served no purpose and were eventually cleared away, untouched and unused. In an economy where we personally choose not to dine out as frequently as we once did, we are selective in where we spend our hard-earned money in hopes of a stellar experience. Kincaid's left us wanting more. Much, much more.
