Short rib post roast was amazing definitely a 10/10. Au gratin potatoes weren’t my favorite. The complementary rolls with tallow butter were delicious. My husband got the filet. He said it was good, nothing super special but still delicious and no complaints. Staff was very friendly and attentive.

I want to thank Regional Manager Melissa for the outstanding attention she gave us! We showed up for brunch and didn't realize it was not offered on weekdays. She read my disappointment and went above a beyond to ensure I was going to love the experience anyway :). BOY am I glad we stayed. She recommended the French Onion Soup and it was probably the best thing we've had in a long time! Delicious!!! We'll be back, and often! Go see them...Le Moo is awesome!!

As usual, our family meal at The Fat Lamb was delicious. The special butternut squash and sausage with béchamel was rich and tasty, and two members of our party loved the burger and truffle fries. Such a winning combination, the house cocktail is one of my favorite drinks in town. We passed on dessert, having started with the satisfying feta dip.
