About The Table:

The Table is an urban neighborhood restaurant focused on seasonal ingredients, hand-crafted cocktails and progressive wines. We are called The Table because we recognize a table’s unique ability to bring together delicious food, fun drinks and good people. Many of life’s best memories have been created around a table.

Our cuisine is contemporary American, paying tribute to the people and cultures that call this valley home. We believe that the quality of our product begins at the source—with the farmers, ranchers, and dairymen that produce them. By establishing relationships with local farms and ranches, our goal is to understand the origins of everything we cook and seek out only those ingredients produced with integrity and care. We commit to delivering delicious food that highlights the quality of the ingredients we source, free of over-manipulation.

We had a group for lunch, and we got to the restaurant before our reservation time. They suggested we sit and order drinks by the fire pit on the patio and when tables were cleared out, they would seat us. It was very busy and loud in the restaurant, so it was nice to be out on the patio. The food and drinks were very good. Everyone enjoyed their meal and dessert. One minor detail is the milk in the latte could have been steamed more. It just looked like it was barely warmed. Overall the server did a great job juggling the patio crowd and our group.

Nice place overall. Service was good but food was hit-and-miss. The crudo and chicken karage appetizers were great and so was the salmon entree, but the "only at The Table" burger was terrible and overpriced. In-n-out is better if that tells you anything. The pork chop entree with the stonefruit sauce was good, well cooked, a little sweet but ok. We had delicious complimentary beignets with lemon curd for our birthday dessert. Drinks were great and not too overpriced like the food. The chairs were very uncomfortable.

It was unfortunate that the patio was so loud, we couldn't hear ourselves or our server. Although it couldn't be helped, we wouldn't come back. Sighhhh.....

Went for Sunday brunch. Sadly, they were out of biscuits by noon did really enjoy the fact that we ordered a kids macaroni and cheese and it came in the largest bowl. No way that was kid sized, but we were able to take some home for dinner so that’s a plus food coming out to the table took a little long but again it was a full house for a Sunday brunch.

FAQs

Smart casual is the guide, polished but relaxed, and a nice fit for anniversary dinners or a slightly dressed‑up neighborhood night out.

Guests often find the small plates and many mains generously portioned and suitable for sharing, several reviewers specifically call the small plates sizable and the mains "large servings" that are great for splitting.

Yes, The Table has been the setting for many anniversary and special‑occasion dinners, with guests describing thoughtful service and delightfully memorable anniversary evenings.

For a calmer visit try midweek, one guest found Wednesday “not crowded at all, ” and arriving before 5:30 lets you catch the Happy Hour; Sunday brunches tend to be much busier.

Sunday brunch is a standout, guests praise the bottomless mimosas and lively brunch service; if you prefer something quieter, visitors note Wednesdays can be noticeably less crowded.

The Table feels like a friendly neighborhood spot with a bright, comfortable dining room and a popular patio; tables are close together and the energy can be lively, so conversation may be warm but sometimes a bit noisy.
