We joined several friends here for dinner in order to celebrate our friend’s birthday. Kerry is allergic to gluten and so it was a joy to see so many gluten-free items on Peacock’s menu. Our group of ten were seated towards the back of the dark dining room. Large scale fashion pictures adorned the wall, spotlighted by bright red lights that created an eerie vibe. Our server did well for the large group, refilling our drinks appropriately and always accommodating the birthday girl first. He even brought out a gluten-free birthday dessert for her with candles and the whole works, which was a sweet touch. The food had mixed reviews around the table. Although everyone agreed the food was tasty, hearty, with quality ingredients - some found their entree to be a bit bland and many reached for the salt and pepper. I felt that way about our appetizer of tuna tartar, but really enjoyed my entree of swordfish. It arrived piping hot and my fish was cooked just right. The vegetables were tender, fresh, and vibrant in colors. Overall, I enjoyed my meal and found Peacock's offerings to be on the healthier side, which is a great option to have.
