The specials were delicious (lobster bisque and scallops), but the guacamole and chips were a little boring and I prefer crispy brussel sprouts. It's a little too crowded in the dining room. My two-top was just too close to the other tables, so much so that I couldn't even take off/put on my jacket without hitting someone. The service was great, but it was hard for them to access our table.

We dined today at the Martinsville Tavern, this restaurant was recommended by a local. My friend and I drove from Summit. The food was exceptional. Hats off to the chef. We enjoyed the salmon sashimi, steamed mussels, braised beef ravioli, beet salad with salmon that was perfectly cooked and creme brûlée. Everything was delicious. We will definitely return.

This is one of my "go to" restaurants. Everything is AMAZING - Food extremely delicious,' Drinks perfect - best Old Fashion; Service - always the best, over the top friendly and helpful staff. Restaurant is intimate feel to it, old style historic in nature. NEVER been disappointed. I went twice in one week with two different couples. A GEM in a very quiet setting.
