    Food as always, so fun to watch the prep. Everything from the soup, salad, veggies, chicken fried rice, chicken and filet mignon were cooked to perfection. They even have smaller lunch portions. Perfect for smaller appetites.

    We had to evacuate our house, and because of that we could not make a Thanksgiving dinner. The folks at the Plumed Horse were beyond gracious and made our Thanksgiving, in very trying circumstances, a delightful memory. As always, the food was excellent, service elegant, and the people divine. Thank you all so much for saving our holiday!

    Celebrating our anniversary, we had a great time. We requested a window table, but they directed us to a non-window table when we arrived. We let the host know it was our anniversary, and we asked for a window table during our reservations, and there were plenty of empty window tables. After discussing with the host, she sat us at a window table. We enjoyed delicious burgers. We were so grateful when they brought us a delicious dessert to celebrate our anniversary! It was a great evening.
