    Went for my partners birthday and we had a wonderful time. The food was amazing and delicious. We started with the parkerhouse rolls and wish we ordered another! We also ordered the wagyu sliders, black garlic shrimp, rotolo and the dry aged duck which everything surpassed our expectations. We will definitely be back and coming with our friends! We highly recommend the Green Room and its wonderful menu and ambience.
