    Very good meal, lobster bisque was more broth than a creamy bisque that I would expect and very small pieces of lobster in it. Walleye was very tasty and our server Nate was great.

    Starting from the time we arrived, we were greeted by both the customer advocates for Cambria and the team at Reflect Bistro. We were escorted to our table. Every employee was friendly. Our server, Michelle, welcomed us with a smile and enthusiastic demeanor. She explained the menu and also made us feel very welcomed. The service was exceptional. Kudos to Chef, every course was prepared and presented to the table promptly and with flair. We will be returning and will definitely request Michelle! Thank you for a great night out with friends.
