    The food was excellent and atmosphere was great. I ordered and waited for food. The waitress didn't offer any rolls or bread while I waited on my dinner. My dinner was brought out fast after ordering, which I loved. Overall, a good experience.

    Daisies was phenomenal all around for us. The service, ambience, food were all on top notch. We had the rigatoni, stracci, the potted carrots, and the onion dip. It was honestly some of the best pastas we’ve ever had! The appetizers were also excellent. We will definitely be returning to try the rest of the menu.

    After a disappointing experience on August 17th my husband and I decided to give Gibsons another chance after reassurances from Scott. Well, I have to say this time around was absolutely fantastic! The service was top notch and the food was excellent. Every request was attended to immediately. The entire Gibsons staff were so accommodating and friendly. When I spoke with Scott back in August he said next time we come in to ask for him so that he could make sure we were happy with our dinner. So I did ask for him to stop by and say hello and took several times of me asking before he stopped by, but it was a busy Saturday night so I understand he was busy. That was the only issue otherwise everything was perfect and we are looking forward to our next visit.

Definitely attentive, and kind. We really appreciate his making this Thanksgiving experience one to remember. Thank you Aden. Happy Holidays , Neil, LeJewel and The Crigler Family 🦃

    We were seated promptly. Our waitress Jenni was prompt, friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. Food was really good. I feel like the calamari has actually gotten bigger lately. Everything was great.
