    As much as I want to say it was wonderful, tonight it wasn’t. My steak was so tough I had to fight to cut it. It was not cooked like I asked for and for the price, which have increased since we were there last it should have been melt in your mouth delicious! The Mac and cheese was great though.

    Willows is a lovely restaurant. But Beware! There are two wagyu beef entrees — one is $60 the other $162. We ordered the $60 wagyu and when the bill came they wanted us to pay $162. When we spoke with the manager he said “I can’t help you. All I can do is offer you an employee discount.” He said we were served the $$162 wagyu. I said if I had ordered shrimp and was served lobster I would know and bring it to the waiter’s attention, but we did not know the difference between the Wagyu beef dishes. AND we ordered the $60 beef. After I raised my voice the manager took the beef off the receipt. We will never return.

    We have been to Willows 8 times and the last 2 visit have not been up to par. Chopped salad had no flavor, the steak had very little seasoning to none thank goodness for them bring the steak sauce to pair it. The steam clams were the star of the night. Maybe we might give it 1 more try and that’s a BIG maybe.

    We went to Willows for my husband’s birthday. The food is delicious and the service was outstanding. I would come again but it is pricey so it would be for special occasions.
