Once again, Persimmon came through with terrific food--and they do that CONSISTENTLY. The service was totally professional and friendly as well--tops in my book. And while Persimmon is not the fanciest restaurant around, it's ambience is totally comfortable and welcoming. Everyone here is doing a superb job. This is one great restaurant, and I am so happy they are less than a mile from my home.

A great brunch: the best lemon ricotta pancakes (based on sampling my companion’s) and bagel with smoked salmon I’ve ever had, along with mixed berries, a delicious Bellini and freshly squeezed juices. Portions are generous and attractively presented, service is terrific (attentive and courteous), and the dining room is attractive and light-filled. I’m inspired to return for dinner as well as brunch!
