The place was slow for a Friday night. The owner came to my table to introduce himself and make conversation as I was alone for dinner. He was friendly and professional, as was my server. The food was delicious and delivered in timely order. I was in no hurry and made it known so the waiter didn't rush me through... More

The service at the Kensington Grille was outstanding. We attended a birthday dinner in the private room and we were very pleased with the menu choices, prompt service and wonderfully prepared seafood choices.

Restaurant has a cozy inviting atmosphere, but the music and noise from next door detracts from the ambiance. Pappardelle was bland. Herb chicken was excellent. Warm cheesy herb buns were tasty. Menu items were ala carte. I think we would go to Red & White next time - it is attached.

My father and I ate here on Friday. They are scheduled to open @ 4pm and we got there shortly after 4 where we were told to come back in approx 30 minutes because they weren't ready. Not a big deal. We went back and both our food and wine were very good! Now comes my biggest issue they over... More

Though their menu indicates a * for Gluten Free options, be sure to ask. As I found out only after asking about one item on the menu because I wondered how they made it Gluten Free did I find out probably just before the plates came out that the other item on the menu I ordered that was * was...

My husband and I tried Kensington Grill for the first time a couple weeks ago and we loved it! Great service, great atmosphere, and GREAT food. I had the Salmon (the special that night) and it was one of the best dishes I have ever had. I highly recommend!! We will be back.

Wow! The scallops served with a corn bacon risotto were fabulous!! I can't wait to bring our Gourmet Club here to sample the wonderful cuisine. My husband (Cabo Bob) loved the pork chop. Our server recommended the Creme Brulee, and it was another highlight of the meal. Loved the New York atmospher! Can't wait to go back.

Five of us for dinner, we all ordered something different and we all loved what we ordered. The food was so delicious! I have been wanting to swoon over a delectable dish for a long time and it finally happened. We had the three meat ragu, the featured salmon, the scallops, the fabulous pork chop (seriously, it melted in your... More

I had high hopes based on the previous reviews so we chose The Kensington Grille for my birthday dinner. First of all the place was very empty at 645pm on a Friday night which made me nervous. We ordered the spinach dip as an appetizer, it was tasty but very greasy. Then the biscuits came out, they were raw.. not... More

Food is delicious but the menu is different than the normal "supper club."
