We ate at Willow tonight for our Anniversary Dinner. This was our first time at Willow after hearing nothing but positive reviews.
We made a reservation the day before not knowing how busy they would be but upon arrival there was really no reason for a reservation.
The Atmosphere/Decor of this restaurant is really nice, the lighting was perfect also. If anyone remembers Mardi Gras the Willow is leaps and bounds nicer.
We were promptly seated upstairs and the whole Dinner there were only two other tables eating. Most of the other customers were outside. It was nice and quiet and very nice, a great place to take a date or significant other.
As for the service there were no issues. Our server Victoria was really nice and prompt. She explained everything to us and you could tell she was there for a while. (Turned out she has been there from the beginning) She forgot to get me a Beer refill and was nice enough to offer it for half off without me saying everything. Overall a great experience.
The food. No complaints. The bread was really good. Beef Stew was awesome, Filet was also really good (Marrow was a great touch), Potatoes were okay, nothing special. I passed on the greens, do not care for them. Wife said the salad was good and the main course, Cranberry Chicken was awesome. She also said the Mixed Drink was really good.
The only reason for the three stars was the price. A few drinks and dinner for two came to almost 90$. The experience was really great I'm just not sure it was worth that much. I will probably return in the future but the Willow would not be a regular place, only for special occasions.
