Restaurants near Campton County Forest Preserve

Good food and great service. Prices are a bit high for drinks but overall very good

Any evening at Balmoral is always super special, - from the moment the bagpiper serenades you at the front door, to Sara’s warm greeting at the host stand, to the fabulous food and the very civilized place settings of beautiful cutlery and cut crystal glassware, to the attentive service by a most accommodating staff, it is simply the best. The restaurant itself is both cozy and gorgeous all at once; special celebrations such as birthdays and anniversaries are a group effort, led by the aforementioned bagpiper. Earl commands the bar and never fails to serve up wonderful hand-crafted cocktails. I had my usual favorite, the Ben Nevis Chili and Honey Grilled Salmon; my Sweetheart tried something new (the Ardmore Rib-Eye Steak Selection) and he was impressed with its great flavor and tenderness. Vegetable sides and potatoes are always reliable and cooked to perfection. Scottish Millionaire Shortbread with the evening's special addition of a layer of chocolate mousse was the perfect finish to a lovely dining experience. And not for anything but the bathrooms are SPOTLESS; as though they have never been used! Finally, if you are lucky enough to be served by Ryan (on hand and foot no less), your time at Balmoral will be as smooth as any evening out can be. He is a true credit to Balmoral and a large part of this glowing review. We have only just left and yet we cannot wait until our next visit!

Typical Red Lobster experience. Good rolls, nice salad, good shrimp as I got the Walt’s, scampi and the new Dragon (a bit too sweet) all were delicious.
