Decided to dine here while waiting for the festivities at the Oakmont Hometown Christmas event to begin tonight.
It has very nice ambiance, especially as it is decorated for the holidays with a wreath in the window and tasteful red bows distributed thoughout the place and the tables each have white linens on them.
What is slightly disturbing is the age group all around me -- the over-50 crowd (note that includes myself). I did notice 2 tables of younger people with children, but in each case they had grandparents in tow. The problem with this scene is I don't want to be in a place that only attracts the older set; I want a place that is appealing to all age groups.
Regardless, the food was quite good. I ordered the special recommended by my server, Marie, which was the pork wellington served with a pear and cranberry sauce. Sounded wonderful and Marie was excited to recommend it. It was good but the pear and cranberry concoction was barely noticeable. I also ordered a salad with raspberry vinegarette which was good. I ordered a glass of Reisling and it came in an ever-so-small glass. Come on, people -- a grown up glass would have been much better. And the Reisling wasn't the best I've had for house Reislings. The price was pretty low so I'd recommend they up the ante and serve a better quality.
Four stars because I really liked the ambiance and it's the first time I've ever had any wellington dish. I'd come back.
