| - Being in the neighborhood, we stopped for an early dinner at The Hartwood, which is too far from home to visit regularly. It was a very good choice. The weather was perfect for dining outside. We got a table on the patio, which is shaded and located behind the restaurant, protected from the road noise. The menu is simple and hard to categorize as to cuisine or theme. I guess you have to call it American. There are appetizers, soups and salads, sandwiches, fish, meat, and pasta entres, and a couple of specials. We chose the fish specials, red snapper and halibut, both of which were excellent. We selected a California Chardonnay from the limited but well-constructed wine list. The wine prices are lower than I would expect for a restaurant of this quality. Other positives worth mentioning were the service (professional and properly paced) and the excellent free bread (Irish soda and baguette). We will definitely stop in when we are in the area and may even make the trek just to have dinner at The Hartwood.
