    I love the Willow Room, the food and the ambience . The only downside is that if you go on a Friday/ Sat night or Sunday morning , Noise levels are crazyyyy, they need to do something about it,

    Every time we come here its fantastic service, food and ambiance. We come for special occasions and date nights. We’ve never been disappointed in the food selection, quality or portions. Prices are very fair and we hope they become a long time staple in the neighborhood.

    We were there fairly early for dinner. The place was not crowded so the noise level was low. We enjoyed the beet salad. For the entry, we had heard good things about the beef wellington. It was okay but not something we would order again. The service was good.
