Ken Stewart’s Grille is always a favorite of mine for years. From the time you walk through the door, the staff greets you and immediately attends to you. The food is delicious and exactly as ordered. The servers work hard to accommodate and ensure everyone at the table is served timely and together. The bartenders are the best in town and friendly!

Best Italian restaurant in town, hands-down! The quality of food for the price you pay is absolutely unparalleled. I highly recommend the apple and goat cheese salad. One of the specials tonight was chicken cacciatore which was out of this world! I enjoyed linguine with Bolognese sauce. You need to try their sauces, absolutely delicious! Delaney, our server and Raphael made our night special. If you’re looking for fine Italian cuisine, don’t miss this spot also phenomenal craft cocktails and the wine menu is tremendous.
