The entire staff was friendly and sociable and the food was delectable. The red wine salmon was a pleasant surprise, even though it was a smaller plate (yet still filling). I was especially glad that they could seamlessly accommodate a shellfish allergy (despite the menu having lots of seafood). The atmosphere was quiet and calm; it was not too cold inside unlike most restaurants. Even though it was a bit pricey, it definitely turned out to be the right choice.
This place is absolutely amazing. Top notch chef John Shanesy will blow away your taste buds when you eat here and you'll leave happier than when you showed up! 5 stars! Incredible!
Astounding menu, some of the best wings in town, and by far some of the best atmosphere/ambiance that I've ever experienced. Hands down 5/5. Upstairs can be your club-ish destination, and downstairs is always great for business meetings and more intimate/romantic meetings.
The service, atmosphere, and food here is amazing. My wife and I had never been to Commonwealth so we wanted to give it a shot. We're so glad we did. We both got the filet that was on the menu and it was out of this world. I appreciated that the waitress started out with asking if medium rare was OK. For me that is the perfect temperature to cook a steak, but often restaurants have a hard time hitting the mark. Not Commonwealth, it was cooked to perfection and the flavor was incredible. I would like to go back and try some other entree's, as I'm sure the quality will be there too. Thank you for an overall great experience.
I visit the upstairs bar all the time. The music is always on point, the service to business volume ratio is excellent. The bartenders are always on hand with a good beer or cocktail recommendation. And the crowd is usually high energy without being rowdy. Yeah, I said rowdy, get off my lawn.
