While I’ve loved my previous visits to The Statler, this time the restaurant was CLOSED FOR RENOVATIONS. This is not mentioned on their voicemail, and nobody told OpenTable. (It is mentioned on their website.) So, we had dinner elsewhere.

I would provide a more detailed review of my dinner at The Statler if I had actually had the opportunity to eat there. The Joe Vicari Restaurant Group whimsically closed the restaurant the week before I was to dine there. They never bothered to tell Open Table, evidently, as Open Table sent me this survey. I had heard rumors of the closing and called the restaurant. I left a voicemail questioning the viability of my reservation and requested a returned call to let me know one way or the other. They never had the decency to pick up the phone and call back. So, if I had indeed driven the hour to get to the restaurant, we would have been met with a shuttered door. That just sucks. So here is my message to Joe Vicari and Joe Vicari Restaurant Group: Have the GD decency to show a modicum of respect to those who have supported The Statler in the past and who might want to continue supporting your restaurants in the future. It sure as hell won't be me.

The Statler closed 2 days ago. We found out when we went to eat there. Had to make alternate dinner plans. Hopefully they reopen.

Made reservation month and half ahead and then 1 hour before we were to arrive we found out the restaurant had been closed. The only way we found out I was looking for the menu on-line and was told the Restaurant had closed. Not sure why I wasn't notified beforehand by both Open table and Restaurant.

Ridiculous customer service. I had a reservation for 7:00pm and they called me from the restaurant stating that they didn’t get any customers from 4:30 and the chef wants to leave. They said that the kitchen is closing at 6:30 and I have to be there before that time. Stupid management worst experience ever. Deserves zero stars.

From the time I walked in the server Andre was very friendly and walked us to the bar and our table. Chef Jeff and his amazing team have blessed hands when it comes to food preparation and execution. Our server Thelma was amazing with a beautiful personality. The ambiance was wonderful a great way to start my birthday weekend.
The StatlerResponded on July 28, 2025
Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Carolyn, and happy belated birthday! We're honored you chose to celebrate with us. We're thrilled to hear that Andre, Thelma, Chef Jeff, and the entire team made your visit so special. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words.

Food was excellent as was the service. My husband had the special which was a New York Steak and I had the short rib dinner. Both came with garlic mashed potatoes and a vegetable. Had to pass on dessert, meal was substantial. Great atmosphere.
The StatlerResponded on July 28, 2025
Thank you for the wonderful review, Denise. We’re so glad you and your husband enjoyed your meals; the New York steak and short rib are excellent choices. It’s also great to hear that the service stood out. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with our team. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon!

The Statler gets a 10 star, everything was perfect. Very welcoming environment. All the staff was very nice, the food was excellent, the drinks were mixed well. The best lamb chops hands down. Free parking under the restaurant for early diners. We will definitely be going back.
The StatlerResponded on July 28, 2025
Thank you for the glowing review, Niema! We're honored to receive your 10-star praise and thrilled to hear that everything from the service to the food, especially the lamb chops, made such a great impression.
