    The service was super slow and after waiting 40 minutes after ordering, both our appetizers and mains all arrived at once. Food was not what we expected and I would not recommend.

    Amazing cocktail (Royal Flush)! We went for dinner snd I had the Harvest Salad which was excellent and my husband had grilled cheese and tomato bisque. Also very tasty. The only downside was the food arrived too fast, right after cocktail. Atmosphere was lovely.

    My wife had been here for breakfast on a previous trip and really enjoyed it so we wanted to try dinner. It on the outskirts of Main Street which is nice if you want to avoid the crowds on a Saturday night. It did not disappoint. From the warm welcome to the excellent food and reasonable prices and fantastic service, we had a winner. Nice succinct menu. The crab cakes, salmon and smoked pork chop were excellent. Nice selection of zero proof cocktails for those of us who chose not to drink. We’ll definitely be back.

    Suddenly Sally was even better than we had hoped. We were a table of 8, reservation went smoothly, table was all set and ready when we arrived and we were walked right in. Chiara was our server and she was excellent. Personable, accommodating, checked in just the right amount and handled our group with ease. The food came quickly and exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend the restaurant!

    We ate here a couple fo times while staying at the hotel. Friendly service and a good range of food, from an excellent Christmas Day holiday plate to simple soup and grilled cheese sandwiches. We had coffee and pastry to go as well, and we'd eat there again, and not just because it was convenient - it was good food, well prepared in a modern cozy setting.
