Grace is simply the best ! I have come to botanist social with my friends since it opened. We have always loved the food drinks and ambiance however the service was always sub par. Today i came in and had a server by the name of grace. After coming here for the first time in a while it was so refreshing to be greeted with the sunshine and friendly personality she emulates . Not only did she care for us but met us with a great attitude and demeanor that we had be looking for here for years!

Grace was our server and she was AMAZING! Normally the service is very cold and impersonal, but grace was warm and welcoming! She was attentive and very friendly/polite. Will be coming back to specifically see grace!

Ambience- great ambience and decor. Cozy date night feels

Food- good Appetizers. We had the mushroom flatbread and salmon bruschetta.
We had lobster roll as our large plate. Let’s just say it was not value for money in terms of taste and portions.

Drinks- good selection of cocktails. Inconsistent flavors when w ordered the repeat drink.

Overall, it seems to be a good place to hangout for pre-dinner cocktails. But won’t consider this as a dinnner place.

Our first time dining here, for our son’s bday celebration they offered a delectable dessert! This earned points for sure!
Food was excellent and the service was impeccable.

Stopped in on a whim before a show at the Overture and so pleased that we did! It's beautifully decorated, provides an impressive gin menu, and has a great SOCIAL atmosphere. The menu is creative without being inaccessible, the plates were perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. We tried the lobster roll and the red snapper, but saw so many of the other dishes as they were happily received by other guests. The food we had was without flaw, and the cocktails were pretty and perfectly balanced. Still, perhaps the best part of our experience was the excellent service! We were fortunate to have a great duo of bartenders on a Wednesday eveing who (from someone in the industry) worked so wonderfully as a team, kept a tidy bar, and expertly crafted each cocktail for the packed house while still remaining so attentive to us diners at the bar. The service was so outstanding from the moment we entered the door, it outshined even the immaculate menu offerings.

Just came for cocktails but we will definitely be back to try the food. Great service, gorgeous space, and impressive gin collection.

Amazing place! Very cozy atmosphere inside. The food is very tasty and drinks are one of a kind! The staff is also very kind and hard working and food doesn’t take long at all to come. The music is also just loud enough to enjoy it while you can still have a conversation with your group without yelling! It is definitely a place where i will return over and over.
If you are looking for a place to enjoy your evening without drunk drama- this is a place to be!

Such a lovely place. The ambience is very unique and moody. I tried the brunch menu and it was really good!
I’d like to come back and try their dinner platters. Mark, our server was really helpful with recommendations and was attentive.
