    Absolutely delighted with yesterday's lunch. The last 2 times I had been to Tower Oaks were quite a disappointment - food was average and, in my view, overpriced. Although my friend and I ordered only humble cheeseburgers, they were superb and cooked exactly to our requests. (That's even harder for me, because I like rare and that's been problematic.) The server was wonderful and the ambience is always a joy. I was really relieved and happy.

    Despite an early dinner - 5:45 party of 6, and with the restaurant not even half full, service was painfully slow. Repeated requests for a refill of soda for the kids, waiter said he’d bring bread/butter and that took 15 minutes, 6 appetizers orders but only 5 were delivered. When asked about the 6th was told he’d check on it. After another 10 minutes, entrees are delivered. 6th app comes 5 minutes after entrees were served.

    My companion and I had a table for lunch on the porch overlooking the koi pond. Ambiance was excellent, as was the service. My companion had the crab cake and was disappointed that it was so full of cartilage. It appeared you're now using 'generic' crabmeat rather than lump backfin and at the price now being charged such is NOT good value. I had the asparagus starter and it was excellent. My entree was the Icelandic cod. The fish was very good, as were the green beans, but the riced potatoes were a loser. I would have preferred a bed of risotto. We shared the strawberry shortcake which was excellent as always. The Prosecco I drank was also up to par, but the coffee we both had was more bitter than usual. Overall, a 4-star experience (compared to the plethora of chain restaurant alternatives). One request - BRING BACK THE COLUMBIA CLYDE"S. I was a customer there for over 30 years and miss having that Columbia neighborhood option.

    We really enjoyed the meal. We were happy to see the restaurant is recovering after the loss of the pandemic. The menu was quite large and everything we ordered was very good. The vegetable carpaccio for starters was very unique. I highly recommend it. We liked the bread and the service was exceptional. I really recommend this place, very affordable, great food and ambiance!

    Very noisy, the calamari was bad, but they comped it. The soft drinks were way overpriced,$3.99 each and the bill had a service charge. At the prices they are charging why do you need a service charge. The steak fritz was fantastic & so was the crab cakes. So all in all, I feel it was just over priced for what it was.

    I may have misunderstood the noise level rating. The noise level was low and acceptable so I scored it at the bottom. I may have made a mistake so don't take that is criticize know which level it was good.

    Waiter didn't check in on us. Had to ask another server to get him to provide us with our check and she obviously didn't follow up with him because when he did show up at our table, he didn't seem to know we had requested our check.

    Clydes at TowerOaks has been our go-to place for a nice safe celiac friendly gluten-free meal. The kitchen let us down this time, and served the burger with a gluten bun. Our son ate a few bites before we realized the mistake. They gave us a discount, but less than the cost of the burger. They were apologetic, but our son ended up being so sick, that he had to cancel his annual vacation trip for this year.
