    Lunch menu is disappointing. Limited options. Odd selection of sandwiches (does anyone like tilapia?). Ordered what I thought was a chicken Parmesan panini, but it was a sloppy soggy mess on a huge roll that was impossible to eat gracefully. Although not on the menu, we requested (and graciously received) a caprese salad. Seems like should be a staple.

    Nick, who greeted you at the door was very personable. We had a wonderful time. The weight staff did an excellent job. We look forward to coming back every time. We are in town all the best.

    Dinner was absolutely DELICIOUS! Service was IMPECCABLE! Lindsay was knowledgeable about the menu. My mom asked for a pasta dish that was not on the menu and without hesitation she said she’d ask the chef and sure enough they were able to make an excellent vegetarian pasta dish! She was Considerate about my food allergy and seriously just a joy!! Her wine suggestion was spot on, as well as her dessert choice! We will be returning soon. Thank you Lindsay and the chef!!
