We normally love The Banks but the food tonight did not deliver the nuanced, wonderful experience we’ve come to expect. Let me first say that the service was outstanding as usual and that was fantastic. But to the food. Specifically, the salmon with saffron risotto—the risotto was so cheesy that it actually over-powered the saffron giving it a thick pasty texture. The Halibut was described as having Lion’s Mane mushroom which I love and was excited about. Well, on entire plate there were two 1/4 inch pieces of Lion’s Mane dowsed in a thick mushroom sauce that was almost gummy. The root vegetable gratin again was overly cheesy to the point that you could not taste the vegetables. Overall the food lacked finesse and both meals were disappointing.

Was very happy that food was good this evening. The wine, salad, fettuccine special with braised beef, and dessert all terrific. Service also excellent. Last time we ate there (2 weeks ago) my meal was really awful and when I spoke to manager he was pretty indifferent so I was about to give up and not return but glad we came to dine again tonight.

This was our first time at The Banks. We stayed at The AKA Hotel and it was right around the corner with good reviews so we made a reservation. First let me start by saying I have been all over the US and some of Europe, so I know good food from bad. This meal from the start was not great. We ordered sparkling water, and a bottle of wine. We ordered calamari for an appetizer and the presentation was messy, like it was thrown on the plate. The calamari was very greasy and had more pieces of fried zucchini than calamari. At this point we were alittle skeptical about her meals. The bread came out and it was one roll, cold and tasted stale. Then came our meals, I ordered the salmon and my husband ordered the tuna. My salmon was burnt on the top, the risotto was over cooked and so oily you could see it on the plate. My husbands tuna was an awful cut, the sauce tasted like nothing we have ever tasted. Overall, we will never go back.

Sorry to hear you may not return as I felt we had a good report, if there is every anything we can do for you please do reach out. We would love to welcome you back so that you may receive the experience you deserve and that of which is our standard. Best, Stephen Showstead General Manager

We went on a Saturday but it was snowing so it was not that busy. The service was excellent and I don’t think the slowness of the night had anything to do with it. The food was excellent and our server knew alot about the dishes. All in all great night

Valentines Pre-Fixed was absolutely outstanding. The Lobster Cavatelli is worth the price of admission alone. Our Server Jessica was outstanding - attentive, thoughtful, and considerate. My NY Strip was slightly undercooked from my Medium request, but the kitchen was undoubtedly earning their keep on a busy night. Would definitely return, and this is a great spot to celebrate Valentine’s.

Excellent food and service. The Branzino, salmon, and filet mignon entrees, as well as the oyster, ceviche, and octopus appetizers were excellent. We have been impressed every time we dine here. The waiter’s recommendations on the fish entrees were perfect. Definitely coming back!

Had the salmon entree and filet with a few sides, salmon was pretty average and so was the filet especially given it was like a $75 steak
