    Great experience! I feared that our party of 6 with 3 kids would not fit in, but the place was great. Nice menu with a good mix of options, great kids menu, and we all really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. There was a mix of families and adults meeting up with friends. The staff was very helpful. Now that we’ve finally tried the Grove, I know we’ll be back soon.

    Oh my! I’ve been going to Clyde’s restaurants for decades. They’ve been special in their own ways: very good, mid-priced food, nice decors, and excellent service. This was my first time at Tower Oaks and, as soon as I walked in, I wanted to spend the week! Though that’s not possible, I do think their setting and ‘lodge’ decor are like the most exquisite National Park or luxury lodge I’ve been in. In the same Clyde’s fashion, no detail is spared and the tables are spacious and not at all crowded! Dawn was our server and she was top-notch; including when we wanted mussels but couldn’t eat the spicy preparation on the menu, she volunteered to speak with the kitchen about using the lemon butter on the cod and throwing in some garlic. It was divine! And we complemented it by a market salad with greens, apples, and pears and a white Balsamic dressing. We were seated in a large booth overlooking the forest. As we walked out, I saw a formal dining room with large round tables. I’ll be sure to bring our family group of 6-8 to enjoy what a round table offers. Could not have been happier! Since covid, we’re still not eating out a lot; this was a rare and perfect treat! Kudos!

    We love going to Gregorios for dinner. It was really busy but we had a reservation so that was good. We are glad they are doing well - we remember the pandemic when everything shut down so just happy it is back to normal. Our dinner was delicious and the service was outstanding. One of our favorite restaurants!

    Had lunch with friends on a weekday (Friday). Service and food were excellent. Our pasta dishes were freshly made and the staff did not make us feel rushed to leave as we stayed long after finishing our meal to talk. Definitely will be returning to the restaurant.
