    Fantastic experience. Each course was so well done, and different from what one finds elsewhere. Perfect service as well. Pricey experience but we’ll worth it.

    Ambiance and service were fantastic. A+. Food is very good, but not amazingly good. A solid B. My wife is a vegetarian and the vegetarian main course of a stuffed portobello mushroom was unfortunately underwhelmingly. We had a fantastic time but a little more effort could be put into serving vegetarian guests a more interesting main course.

    Lovely birthday celebration for my wife. Food delicious as always. Fours course is way too much food for us but we struggled through. I wish there would go back to the pre-Covid menu. Very pricey but otherwise very good.

    Wonderful service and food! I have only sat on the main level several times but this time we sat in a dining room upstairs with 2 fireplaces which was so warm and cozy. Very nice ambiance and will requests that room next time as well. Service was fantastic. Food was delicious! Looking forward to going back.

    Amazing romantic evening for Valentine's Day. Incredible service. Thank you Rae for making our evening a memorable occasion. The Oysters Rockafella were great. The Lobster with stuffed crab meat made the evening. Huge lobster tail with a lot of crab meat. My friend had the surf and turf. The steak had the right amount of seasoning. Cooked to perfection. No sauce needed. Nice big pieces of shrimp. If you're looking for a great restaurant with quality food and service while visiting the Salamander resort then stop by the RedFox Inn.
