Food and service were outstanding. It's a bit like eating in an expensive cafeteria though. No ambiance whatsoever. No music, nothing. Bland furniture. Made what could've been a great experience only good.

I can't recommend the Desmond's Fork and Bottle enough. From receptionist to the waitstaff, the team makes you feel welcome and they very responsive. Just a great dining experience.

The food was delicious although the shrimp might have been a little over cooked. The salads were fantastic. The desserts were sized appropriately excellent. The staff was very courteous and willing to have brief conversation. This may be our new go to place.
