I brought guests from the bay area and New York City, people who expect a higher level of quality in their cuisine. They were not disappointed, nor was I. The desert selection is to die for!

Haven't been to this restaurant in quite a while, and I was very pleasantly surprised. Excelsior has always been a nice place for dinner - quiet, good service, good wine. Tonight's food was really terrific across the board. I had a filet mignon special with...More
