    The martini's were wonderful, the outside patio was warm even though the night was cool, and the food was excellent. A bit pricey, but very good. The rigatoni rustica was delicious, the caprese salad was very good.l

    Loud music in the indoor seating area makes conversation impossible. Hard to imagine any diners would rather listen to the live music than talk with their companions.

    Thompson 105Responded 4 days ago

    Thank you for the feedback. We only have live music on Wednesdays and Fridays and unfortunately it is loud next to the musicians. However the patio is heated and a great option for seating on those days as well as the front of the restaurant. I believe we were able to relocate you on the patio last night.

    This is our 2nd try at Thompson. Love the ambience but the service was very slow and the food came out cold. It is clear that they were short handed or something. Nice waiter but very slow service and food came out warm at best.

    It was a little bit loud and cold since they keep the outdoor area open at night and it was a bit of a brisk night. If you want to be in the cold under the heat lamps that’s fine but at least close off the interior space for those that get cold easily.

    Very enjoyable. We sat outside, and it was raining and a bit chilly; our server was terrific, and turned on our heater right away. The wine was delicious, as was the focaccia; don't miss this! The ragu pasta was good but needed salt, per my taste; the Broccoli Caesar was wonderful. No dessert for us. A good experience.

    I really love this spot... the ambiance, the service. The prices are reasonable except the wine! I ordered a 6 oz. glass of red wine and it was $17. It's very high in my opinion. The food is nice. At times great, at times just nice. I'll go back as it's my neighborhood go-to.

    We went with friends it was our 3rd time back, wanted to try Brunch. We opted to sit outside on the patio weather was nice. Waitress was good but maybe more water refills. She brought our checks without asking if we needed anything else which we wanted to try a dessert. It gets very loud on the patio think next time sit back inside. Food was great as always we ended up with French Dips & Chicken Tenders with different sides. Parmesean garlic fries really good and onion rings tasty. We love the views and the Atmosphere but the patio on Sunday more drinks, noise and bites to eat. Will be back one of our favorite places was a little disappointed a manager didn't check on us like they have in the past but did bring part of our order to the table.
