We went for lunch & shared charcuterie, cheese plate, & Trout Almondine. All were excellent. Our server, Makenzie, was delightful & attentive without being intrusive, and helpful with suggestions. The only negative was uncomfortable chairs. Otherwise, we had a lovely leisurely lunch.

The Sunday Brunch is very good at The Rail. The selections are plentiful and very tasty. The French Toast casserole is always wonderful. We did miss the melodious sounds of the pianist which added a certain sense of elegance.
