    We went as a family to celebrate Christmas Eve. We booked as a party of six, but one of our party bailed, so we were only five, which led to our disappointment that they still charged a fixed service charge. Additionally, for half the meal, the music was so loud, we could not talk. Once past this, our food and service was great and we all had a great time.

    Hector and Angie were the most gracious hosts. Hector took the time to take us through the menu and even gave us a little history lesson. The food was great, and the service was wonderful. We really enjoyed our dinner and the whole experience. We will definitely be back!

    Apres Village is a fun experience. The lights and decorations create a festive atmosphere, and the outdoor fireplace and space heaters keep you cozy when the sun goes down. I loved the idea of sharing dishes for the table and enjoyed the overall simplicity of choosing the food. We were a party of 4 and we tried everything we could. It was all delicious. Service was attentive and professional. We had a blast!

    My first visit to The Heid was a very pleasant one - it has a fine taste in decor and the whole Inn is in a lush green serene creek side setting. The appetizers/small bites were delicious and good to share with 2-4 people. We had Hummus, flatbread and charcuterie dishes. I and my friends were there during Happy Hour between 5 and 7pm when some beer and a couple of cocktail drinks were a few dollars off. I would go back and try their breakfast next time.
