Loved It Twice!! – Well I must say that we enjoyed August even more the second time around. I thought they were great the first time I was there a few months ago and was fully prepared to be disappoined (this is normally how it goes) on the second visit. To our delight it was fantastic. There were 6 of us and not a complaint in the bunch. We are all still talking about how great the food is as well as the staff who could not have been more accomodating, especially as one of my companions was in a leg cast and on crutches.

a find to be treasured – Our party of four thoroughly enjoyed the evening of Aug 10th . Their food was delicious, portions ample. The ambiance is delightful and the service from a beautiful Russian born college student was excellent.

Very Disappointed! – I WANT EVERYONE TO KNOW THAT THIS RESTAURANT IS NOT VERY ACCOMMODATING. THERE WERE RESERVATIONS MADE FAR IN ADVANCE FOR A FUND RAISER. WE WANTED TO ADD AN ADDITIONAL PERSON AND THEY WOULD NOT CHANGE THE RESERVATION. I COULD UNDERSTAND IF WE WERE CHANGING FROM 6 PEOPLE TO 10 PEOPLE, BUT 6 PEOPLE TO 7 ? THIS EVENT WAS TO RAISE MONEY FOR A VERY WORTHY CAUSE. I WAS FORCED TO MAKE RESERVATIONS ELSEWHERE! AND AS FOR FUTURE I WILL EAT ELSEWHERE AS WELL. NO MATTER HOW GOOD THE FOOD IS!

You should try this place out – I've only been to this cute little place once and had a nice meal. The only drawback I had was the fact that it has an open kitchen. When I'm done with my meal, I don't want to smell more food being prepared. Other than that, I found the place to be comfortable, the waitstaff to be friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere pleasant.

A Great Find! – Last Thursday I returned to August and once again experienced great food in a warm, inviting atmosphere, served by an attentive, knowledgable wait staff. I never get tired of this place! They make you feel welcome from the moment you arrive, and I have never ever been rushed to finish my meal. Chef Maryann Brancaccio's down-home but innovative dishes are always delicious; my personal favorites include an artichoke appetizer to die for, an extremely tasty talapia entree, a heavenly light-textured cheesecake (I... read more

User review by bummer – I had reservations for dinner early sat 10/15. Unfortunately of my party of 4, 2 were hung up in a traffic accident jam and were 1/2 hr. late, a fact we announced upon entering. Not a problem we were told. Not true. After 1 and 3/4 hrs. we were about to order dessert and were informed that we were running out of time. The next reservation party would be arriving soon and that we would have to hurry. I asked to see the managemnt and the same message was reiterated in not too kind a fashion. We left rat... read more
