    I’ve been to the Woodbury several times and had a great experience this last time. Mallory was our wonderful server and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Next we’re in we’ll definitely ask for Mallory again.

    Welcoming service and atmosphere at this place. Extensive menu and couldn’t decide what to get as there are so many good options. I had the Brussel sprouts which are great. Although when I asked for an over medium cook on my eggs in the thit kho thom hash I was given eggs with no runny yolk, more of an over hard or a bit past that even. Additionally, the pork belly in the dish didn’t seem to be cooked enough and my stomach confirmed this later in the day. Overall we had good food and dining experience but for a place to charge what it does there should be more attention to detail in the kitchen.

    Service was rather slow. It took nearly half an hour to get drinks, with food arriving very soon thereafter. Makes it pointless to order “bottomless” mimosas if you don’t even have a chance to get through 1 drink due to slow service. Water tasted like cleaning chemicals. The Pineapple juice is not really pineapple - some sort of an orange colored ginger tasting substance. Not the best experience we have had here.

    Our second after show visit to The Woodbury. Same server, who acknowledged the fact and welcomed us back. Very pleasant young lady. Service was a little slower this visit though it was a little later in the day so they were a little busier. Again, the choices from the menu got rave reviews (Beignets, Brussels sprouts, crab Rangoon for starters this time; patty melt, barramundi, fish sandwich, meat loaf melt, chicken hot cakes tacos for mains) except, again, the Rueben. Two in our party ordered it and I didn't intercede because I figured last time was a fluke but, like last time, it was tough, stringy and chewy. Corned beef needs to be sliced across the grain and someone just doesn't get that. Overall, we would recommend The Woodbury...just stay away from the Rueben.

    Food is creative, a little hit-or-miss on the execution but overall delicious. A lot of PB&J on the menu--the cocktail was spot-on, but the deep fried sandwich was a little too heavy. Hot chicken pancake tacos were a little too floppy to eat and the strawberry salsa + chilli aioli was a little too confusing. The eggs and bacon were perfect and seasonal pancakes delicious. Excellent service, friendly and attentive and prices were very reasonable for weekend brunch.

    This was our first after theater dinner for the season and decided to give The Woodbury a shot. It was mid afternoon so didn't figure they would be busy but made a res anyway. Seated right away. Our server, Ieshia, was prompt in taking care of us and very pleasant. The food, overall, got rave reviews from the group...beignets, pork belly tacos & crab Rangoon were great starters. All of the groups 'mains' (fish sandwich, The Woody, Thit Kho Tham hash, Bulgogi) were excellent...except mine. I got the corn beef Reuben and, while the flavor was great, the meat was very dry around the edges and very chewy/gristly in the middle. The ginger spiced cider is very good and they have a very good Malbec. The room was comfortable and noise level was very good though we were remote from the bar. As two in the group have hearing issues, this was very nice. Portions are adequate, though they could use some 'senior' options for older, lighter diners. Prices were a little high but not outlandish. Parking was pretty easy but this was a Saturday afternoon downtown. I can imagine busier times would be a challenge.

    This was our first time there. Service, food and drinks were very good. I thought one of the cocktails was very over-priced at $16. Also we put on our reservation that we were celebrating a birthday and no acknowledgement was made of that.

    We had a reservation, placed our order, but one hour later our food did not come. I went up to the counter and asked about it. I asked if the food was done or near done. One of the meals, a basic cheeseburger was not done, they were out of American cheese, asked what else we preferred. I could not believe that the 3 meals were not done. Finally, I asked for it to be packed to go since we had a show to attend. We were charged for the entire meal, I would have expected some type of comp. Very disappointing,

    We came here for a celebratory dinner back in May and it was 5 stars all around. I couldn’t wait to go back! We came today for brunch which was significantly busier than the last visit and unfortunately very underwhelming. Our waiter was kind for the few times he came to our table but we kind of weren’t “waited on”. We received no refills at all. We waited over 20 minutes after we were done eating waiting for him to come back but he didn’t so I had to ask another waiter to help us. I think and hope maybe this service was just a fluke but we left a little disappointed. The dinner menu is much better as well. Maybe we’ll try dinner again in the future.

    Went on a Sunday morning around 10:30 for brunch. Waitress was incredibly slow. We ordered lattes to start and it took 25 minutes for those to come out of the kitchen. Food was lackluster. We ordered the beignets which were more like undercooked pancake balls. For my main, I had the chicken pancake tacos which had globs of red chili mayo and maple syrup on them which was such a strange combo. Took another 25 minutes for us to get our bill when we asked for it. Restaurant wasn't very busy at the time, so we're unsure why things were so slow.

    The service was undeniably slow even with just a few occupied tables. The chicken piccata was well seasoned but far too oily and the bruschetta appetizer tasted of nothing but oregano and salt. We didn't stay for dessert, as we felt no need to be tortured.

    Eh. Definitely not as good as I remember (was there years ago, pre-covid). Decor is looking tired and dirty. Food was fine, nothing to rave about. The crab Rangoon dip was weird..really lumpy with a layer of oily cheese on top and a puddle of chilli sauce on top of that. Saw the bartender put her bare hand in my drink to fish out what apparently was too many ice cubes, that was pretty off-putting.

    The service was exceptional, having a menu with a variety of options and great prices. The Cajun Chicken Penne dish was outstanding with great tastes and portion was absolutely filling. Happy hour for a local draft was icing on the cake for an awesome evening with my wife, Denise, and our friends.

    Initially I only made reservations for 2. It was a Sunday afternoon and when I inquired about increasing the party to 10 the hostess stated she was unable to accommodate us at all. Eventually she did her job and seated us 30 minutes later. My issue is that instead of Being so quick to turn us away, she should have tried to accommodate us. The food was ok. There were egg shells in my scrambled eggs. Our waitress was patient and kind and received an additional 15% on top of the gratuity the restaurant tacked o. Our bill.
