| - My first day in town visiting family and I wanted to try somewhere new.... And somewhere nearby.... And somewhere that offered vegetarian options...... so we ended up at Table.
I think this is a great restaurant that's perfect for going on a date or hanging out with a bunch of friends. There were two showers going on while we were there and I think it would be a nice location for that as well. It's not super noisy (even with the two showers going on) and it is right by the lake so it has a nice view.
We started off sharing the Hummus Trio appetizer. Although all three types of hummus were good, I think we would have liked to have move pita and less veggies. Some people may like it, but carrots and hummus don't really do it for me. I was thinking it might be nice to actually have nachos to with the black bean hummus and crostini for the cannellini bean hummus.
For lunch, I ordered the Margherita Flatbread. Let's face it- "flatbread" is a fancy name for "individual pizza." Whatever you call it, I enjoyed it. It certainly wasn't life changing and could have definitely used a little more oomph... but overall, it was good.
My sister had the Southwest Chicken Salad and said she really liked it. My mom ordered the Mushroom Swiss Burger and it was HUGE; they put an entire portabella mushroom cap on top of a thick burger. If you're looking for a filling meal, then that burger would certainly be one. Mom also said she liked what she ordered.
My mom, sister, and I met up with my aunt and cousin and ended up a spending a lot of time here (I'm talking about 3 hours- we had a lot of catching up to do). The servers and manager were all very gracious and never treated us as pests that needed to leave. In fact, they continually checked up on us long after we had paid the bill to make sure we didn't need another drink. I really can't say enough about the service here.
I think Table is so close to being a really fantastic place. The restaurant itself is beautiful, it's on the lake with a great view, and they have an upscale menu at great prices. But like the other reviewers have said, the food seems to fall a little flat. I think if they could just execute the food better, then Table would be a 5-star restaurant for sure.
4-stars for the service, ambience, and menu selection. If based off quality of food alone, I would say 3-stars.
