We thoroughly enjoyed every single bite. We wanted to try everything!! One of the best meals we have had in a long time. It was overall a wonderful experience. Sharing food with each other, great service, lovely atmosphere. We will definitely be back!!!
3 Strikes and done. We loved curate when it opened, however the service and value has gone down significantly over the last year. The first time in a group of 10, it took 1 hour and 15 minutes for the food to come out for the Birthday girl, after everyone else had their food. They told us they ran out of risotto...hmmm. Unfortunately it ruined the vibe of the night. The second time my spouse and I waited for 25 minutes to even be greeted by anyone at our table before we left. Lastly, it often takes 20-40 minutes in between dishes or even getting a drink refill, which also is a buzz kill. The food is fantastic, however due to the shrinking portions and slow inconsistent service we won't be back for a bit.
During my 20-minute wait, three servers came in and out, attending to the two tables outside. Then, a group of six people arrived and took a table in the patio as well, bringing the total number of customers to 11 across four tables. Despite this, not one of the three servers, two hostesses, or the bartender made an effort to take my order during my time there. I've never left a restaurant before, but there's always a first time for everything.
Setting and aesthetics are great. Food is very good, but pricey. One negative is that the our orders did not come at the same time.
Curate offers expertly prepared, upscale dishes and a thoughtful wine list in a pleasant, patio-friendly setting — ideal for celebrations and date nights. Diners praise bold flavors and attentive, knowledgeable servers when service is strong, but note portions are on the small side and prices are above local averages. Expect a lively atmosphere with live music and a cozy interior, but be prepared for occasional slow or inconsistent service and menu shortages.

One of my favorite spots in town—it's a bit on the expensive side, but overall, it's a fantastic place to indulge!
This is the best upscale restaurant I've visited in Springfield. Everything we ordered was well-prepared. While the prices are higher than the local average, the lack of competition allows them to set those rates, and they are still reasonable compared to larger cities. The interior ambiance is pleasant, and there's outdoor seating as well. We chose to sit at the bar and received excellent service.
We sampled the Brie Plate, Escargot, Country Flatbread Pizza, and Sausage Pesto Pasta. It was a light dinner for our group of four, but we definitely saved room for the frozen dessert flight at the end of our meal. We ended up ordering two flights to share, and they were absolutely delightful. The pistachio flavor was the best I’ve ever tasted, the lemon was refreshingly zesty, and the strawberry had actual berry pieces in it. The staff never rushed us, allowing for a wonderfully relaxed evening. We will definitely return, and we promise to take photos next time!
Thank you Ryan for making my birthday weekend awesome. Loved the wines we tasted. Especially the Daou cab sav. The mushrooms, escargot and bree were all delicious! We will be back to try the Elk for sure.

The food is prepared extremely well and it is of good quality. I like it that they bring the food out as it is prepared. But the food portion is like a tease, you enjoy your food, but it is not enough! You want more....... We all liked what ever we ordered. Will go back again. A little pricey for the portion. Very friendly staff. We ended up going to Sam's club afterward for a piece of Pizza to complete the dinner......lol Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $30–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

Had an exemplary time. Our waitress was friendly and helpful. She answered all our questions and gave appropriate recommendations. My water was never empty. She did a great job at being prompt, yet not clingy. The atmosphere was very nice.Food came out fresh and we never had to wait too long. Drinks were delicious and there many options. I wore a dress, but I sawothers in jeans an nice shirts. I liked that different levels/styles could come and eat here. Get the Scallop risotto and aRiesling, they're incredible. The bathroom was very clean and cute. It is pricey considering the portions, but it's perfect forspecial occasions
This place exceeded expectations! It was a very chill vibe with incredible flavor and the staff was courteous and attentive. I enjoyed everything that we tried and would come again.
First time at curate and it did not disappoint. Staff and our waitress were very kind, attentive and helpful. Food was delish my fav being the goats greens salad, and mushroom medley! Will be returning to try more menu items specials!
My friend and I celebrated his birthday last night at Curate and this morning I woke up to text from him saying how wonderful the food, service, and atmosphere was. I couldn't agree more! We took our time ordering one small plate at a time (total of 7)and each and every one was a completely different flavor explosion! Our server Cheryl was top notch. Her understanding of themenu helped us navigate our evening and our glasses were always full. We sat outside on the patio for over three hours where wealso enjoyed live music, twinkle lights, and the outdoor lounge with coffee after dessert. I would also like to add that I hadgastric bypass surgery earlier this year and have struggled with finding restaurants that I can visit with friends that havequality ingredients and solid options that allow me to enjoy food. Curate's menu is FULL of items that are not only healthy forme to eat, but portioned perfectly! I cannot wait to share this with Memorial Wellness. Overall, this is by far, my newfavorite restaurant in Springfield! I will be back and putting effort into sharing my thoughts and experience with as manypeople as possible. Thank you Curate!!!
Had an AMAZING experience here with everything. Jessica, the bartender, did an incredible job balancing a fully packed bar. The food was also incredible. This place would be perfect for a date night or a “treat yourself” kind of night. I love smallplates and the way they went about all the dishes was excellent. Highly recommend. Ask for Jessica and order an espressomartini.
