    I have only positive things to say about my experience here. This meal was my third and yet again the entire experience end to end was amazing. The trout on the menu was fantastic! Our server, Alina, was so great - truly a professional. I really feel that this place is the right balance of portion size to the prices charged for entrees etc. The have a touchless menu which is all online when you scan the QR code upon entry. I would highly recommend.

    Loved our server Dhemail. Very knowledgeable, & friendly. And food was excellent. Also appreciated the efforts to social distance appropriately, including the taking of temperatures.

    The staff was pleasant, our server, Christopher, was attentive and friendly. The meal was fine dining at its best with beautiful presentation. Also great to be outside by the river.

    Always an enjoyable experience! Great food (especially the oyesters), great drinks, great service, and wonderful atmosphere! Alley Cat never disappoints. The service modifications they have put into place for COVID-19 are also great, definitely following safety standards in such a manner to feel safe, as well as maintaining a very enjoyable experience.
