| - Had a lovely lunch here with my mom and her friend. They both had been here before, but it was my first time (I live in Minnesota).
Our server, Rose, was wonderful. She had a down to earth personality and took the time to chat with us. She was very attentive with refilling our iced teas and clearing empty plates.
I was going to order the cashew chicken salad, but they were out of it, so I went with the Mini Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes. My mom's friend recommended them and they ordered them as well.
The salads we started with were great! They had a little more personality than a typical house salad. They had grape tomatoes, cucumbers, a couple of black and green olives, sprouts, and mixed spring greens. The house made Italian dressing was good.
The crab cakes were nice and light, not heavy with mayo and filler, and were delicately pan fried. They sat on top of sautéed spinach and were drizzled with lemon beurre blanc sauce.
My favorite was the Braised Escarole (greens & beans). I had never tried it before or even heard of it, but I had a few bites of my mom's friend's. Wow! So perfectly garlicky! It's one of my new favorite things!
