Very good service and quiet corner table for 5 of us for a birthday celebration. Delicious meals and dessert. Mostly generous servings except for the birthday guy, ravioli was smallest meal. We all gave him bites from our food!

The Beef and Barley soup was the perfect start on a very cold day. Service is professional and warm. The French Dip Sandwich is so tender it melts in your mouth! The underground parking is a huge plus on a bad-weather day!

Once again, Persimmon came through with terrific food--and they do that CONSISTENTLY. The service was totally professional and friendly as well--tops in my book. And while Persimmon is not the fanciest restaurant around, it's ambience is totally comfortable and welcoming. Everyone here is doing a superb job. This is one great restaurant, and I am so happy they are less than a mile from my home.

The food was excellent but they needed a couple of more waiters. It took a long time to place our order and get our apps and entrees.
