    Even though they were slammed last night the food was perfect and timely. The steak salad is the best in town for the price and quality. Love The Valley Inn

    The menu and meal preparations for myself and my guest were outstanding. The outdoor seating in the sculpture garden is sublime. Our waiter appears somewhat overtaxed by having to work simultaneously one or two too many tables. Overall, though, I cannot conceive of a more pleasing dining experience.

    My family dined on a weekday evening, we made reservations ahead of time and there was no wait time when we arrived. The sides: Mac n cheese, and greens were really good. The stuffed shrimp appetizer was my favorite, I loved the succotash at the bottom and the sauce on top was amazing. We also had the catfish, fried snapper which both had big portions and were fried to perfection. The lamb chops were cooked perfectly and the fried deviled eggs were a different but delicious bite. We will definitely be back, the ambience and service was great. Refills are not included so keep that in mind when dining.
