    We had another great meal at Woodford. Starting with Norumbega oysters that were outstanding to the best burger on the planet - seasoned with condiments that complement the brisket, meat and bacon. Our roast chicken was beautifully cooked and the Margarita was delicious. The staff is great - informative and attentive. This is a terrific restaurant!

    Absolutely loved this place. They were very understanding when our sons flight was delayed several times and we had to push back our reservation. The cocktails were welcoming and spot on. The roasted Brussels were fantastic with a delicious aioli. Giant shrimp cocktail with spicy cocktail sauce were a hit with everyone as well. The crab cakes were yummy, the burger was a hit as well as the tri tip steak. We all thought the fries were really great especially with the aioli. A home run all the way around.

    I've been here a couple of times for lunch, and have enjoyed the upscale diner vibe. As far as the lunch menu goes, Woodford F sandwiches are delicious but not especially inventive, and plates are large and included a side of fries or salad. The burger is excellent. Cocktails are also great - I ordered the Woodford Spritz and was impressed. A bit on the pricey side, but the service is excellent and the atmosphere is friendly, so I feel it's worth it. Note: it can get a bit loud, so if you are hard of hearing or are trying to converse among a large group, go at a less busy time.

    Starting with the management to the long term staff and familiar faces, this restaurant does a tremendous job both making you feel welcome and always delivering on quality cocktails and food.

    This is one of our go-to spots. We love it. It does get a bit noisy so if you're planning a romantic dinner with lots of deep conversation, this may not be the best choice. It's a fun place with great food. At times, like on our most recent visit, a woman at the bar had apparently had too much to drink and was VERY loud. I wish someone--bartender, host, owner, server--could tell people when they are this annoying that they should tame it down. Her behavior ruins the experience for everyone and I think it would be fine to take a chance on alienating her rather than have other guests endure her loud raucous laughter.
