Great restaurant! They have a private room if you would like to host a nice birthday or get together. Food options are great and great drink selection. For drinks I got the rebel, presentation was great and very. The drink was sweet but not overall powerful. Old fashion did not disappoint! For food I got a Ceasar salad and the octopus to start off. Ceasar salad was perfect. Not too tarty and the portion was great. I love ceasar salads and this did not disappoint. Presentation was great. The octopus was a great presentation, tasty but I felt like it was a bit overcooked because it was chewy. It was over potatoes and a green sauce. Not amazing but didn't hate it. I would try something else next time I got a side of baby potatoes and I wouldn't get them again. Nothing special about it. It sounded good but was disappointed. I also got the crab and shrimp linguine and it was amazing. The sauce was great. The shrimps were cooked perfectly and good portion of both shrimp and crab. I would reccomend this! Service and waiter were great! For parking you can either use the parking structure or get valet. For the parking structure you can get it validated and the walk isn't far, so it's perfect.

We recently held our company Christmas party at Twenty Eight Restaurant, and it was the best venue we’ve ever had.  The filet mignon was cooked to perfection—extremely tender—and the salmon dish was very fresh. They offered a selection of top-shelf liquors, and the dessert was just right: not too heavy or too sweet. If you’re looking for a memorable dining experience, I highly recommend this place.

The food here was immaculate! My boyfriend and I came here to celebrate our 5 year anniversary. We have been to many restaurants in our past, but this place topped every place we have ever been to. From the food, to the service, to the amazing music playlist. We will definitely be back! Thank you for making our special day memorable!

Really nice restaurant with super nice waiters and staff, all super nice courteous and friendly. The old fashioned was delicious, Brussels sprouts a bit on the burnt side, mushrooms and steak were great, don’t forget to validate your parking (they’ll ask before you leave).

Chic and cozy. Super friendly staff and delicious food. Steak was great but fatty. Garlic bone marrow was awesome, highly recommended.

Amazing drinks, and great steaks cooked to perfection. The wagyu hanger steak is a must try cooked over oak charcoal it has a Smokey flavor that pairs great with the pork chops and apple sauce cocktail(fat washed bourbon)
