    We always love dinner at Kendall’s. The new menu is delightful and has some great new additions plus a few more vegetable options, which was much appreciated by some in our party. I had the duck confit, which was fork tender and had a good flavor. I did think, however, that it was a bit over salted. But not to the point of being displeasing. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and our server was so helpful and charming that she put the star on top of the experience. We will be returning soon.

    Thoroughly enjoyed the Nutcracker Tea experience. From the cozy ambience to the tea smelling to the delicious savory and sweet bites and cocktails to the attentive service; all were excellent. This is a great way to stop, savor and celebrate the holiday season in a warm, relaxing, festive environment . Highly recommend.
