    I’ve always struggled with finding the right gift for my mom on Mother’s Day. This year, I decided to do something different: instead of a physical gift, I wanted to give her an experience—one where we didn’t worry about the cost, just focused on great food, a beautiful setting, and quality time together. Pier W delivered all of that and more. We were seated in the lower level of the main dining area, tucked into a quiet corner with a stunning view overlooking the lake. At one point, we noticed a man with a shovel on the hillside below and joked that he was either the resident fisherman or a paid actor placed there for ambiance. Kevin, our server, played along with our antics the entire evening and made us feel relaxed and completely taken care of. We each started with a cup of the lobster bisque—rich, velvety, and exactly what you want at a seafood-forward spot like Pier W. For mains, I had the salmon special, which came with a honey mustard and hot honey drizzle that was both unique and absolutely delicious. My mom chose the scallops from the regular menu and was just as thrilled. We shared a bottle of wine and capped the meal with coffees and a slice of their apple chai spice cake, which was warm, comforting, and the perfect ending. Looking back, I almost feel guilty I hadn’t thought to do something like this sooner. This dinner felt like the best gift I could have given her—one filled with laughter, good food, and time well spent together. I hope to make this a new tradition. Thank you, Pier W (and especially Kevin), for making this Mother’s Day unforgettable.

    Although all tables full for Mothers Day dinner, Every person involved in our food experience, were pleasant and took the time to fulfill our requests for seating preference - to refills on beverages - to packing up leftovers to take out.

    Afternoon reservations for Mother's Day was the best idea to avoid the early rush. The restaurant had actually begun to clear out during our visit. The food was incredible, our server Chloe was friendly, the mimosas were on point. There is some construction out front, and the welcome mats are dirty and muddy, but that did not take away from our dining experience. My family and I have visited a few times before in the past for brunch, and we will definitely return.
