It was fantastic. The food is outstanding as is the service. The dining room is beautiful. And you can’t beat the desserts. I highly recommend trying Lon’s.

Sasha made our experience extra special as she offered to take our photos and went above and beyond with her genuine kindness. Mandonna was our server and was gracious in every way from providing food suggestions and coordinating our dessert service. Mercedes is a memorable and excellent host. She also went above and beyond by going outside for a few moments to capture our photos by a historic tree! We all ordered the crab cake entree coupled with a Caesar salad. It was a perfect combination! This space has a calm and serene vibe and is perfect for intimate special celebrations! I adore the history that Lons offers too. We will return again!

Starting with the initial greeting at the door, the hostess was friendly, professional and engaging! She noticed that I had noted on the reservation that it was a birthday celebration and she asked who was celebrating and provided that person with a lovely birthday card (hand signed by multiple staff!). Now this may seem silly and unnecessary, but it was that simple touch that added to the positive experience. Our server was amazing! He was friendly, asked good questions, provided ideas, and was professionally attentive! Our waters were filled as needed without asking (a simple and easy thing to do that many places seem to overlook). The=he food was perfect! One of us had the croissant smoked salmon Benedict - it was perfect! The croissant was flaky, the egg was just right, the salmon was a very generous portion and the hollandaise sauce was just the right amount! The other 2 dishes were equally delicious. Our meal ended with a surprise birthday dessert that was delicious! Would HIGHLY recommend this place.

Service and food were excellent. Interesting decor and history as well. Saw the outside space and can’t wait to come back in the winter and eat outside. We had the short rib and filet which was great. The churro tree we had for dessert was also terrific. Highly recommend Lon’s.
