With how large and intimidating of a menu Gentle Brook has, it took a while for me and the people I’ve accompanied myself with to order. The food we ended up getting, unfortunately, didn’t exactly live up to the long wait time, neither did it live up to the price. Maybe that’s just due to how everyone’s attention is spread thin across its menu, that is mere speculation, but I find it hard to find something that could tell me to come back to this restaurant another time.
Steak was cooked and prepared well. Soft, juicy, and flavorful. The sushi rolls were really big. Everything about it was pretty good except one thing, the spicy sauce itself. You could easily tell it’s sriracha, and it’s just something about sriracha that just feels off putting to me. I don’t know, I felt like it didn’t need to be with the sushi, it’s like it didn’t belong there.
Keep in mind that the dishes are not horrible, they were still really good, what I’m trying to say is that there’s nothing about Gentle Brook that kept me in my toes the entire time.

Read moreI give 4 stars for good food. Today 7/29/21 It must've been a bad day for the staff at gentle brook. As soon as we walked in we weren't greeted and given a seat. No one was not at the front. So people were walking in taking their seats and it wasn't a "first come, first serve basis." Anymore. I'm not sure if a manager or owner was there to help the staff be organized during services. We left after 20 minutes waiting and observing the situation. 3 stars for service for today. Hopefully next time I go there I can...
