    As always, the food was outstanding. We had the blinis and the scallops risotto. Our server Sue is a doll, they all are. She offered us two big chocolate dipped Strawberries with whip cream for dessert. We just had the grandest time gazing at the view and raving about the food. Yes, we are frequent diners, We’ve been coming hair forever, been in the area over forty years. Nothing compares to lunch at the Molly except dinner and breakfast at the Molly!😀. We will be back very soon. One of the highlights of our retirement in the land between two rivers!
