Our first dining experience at Glenwood’s was very much enjoyed! The salmon and sushi were very good and the key lime pie was excellent. We requested a more quiet table for four and were very pleased with our comfortable booth away from the lively bar area. We feel fortunate to have discovered this little gem so close to home!
