    I cannot remember the lady manager working on 12/23 at 4:30, but absolutely amazing. She was exceptional and very attentive to the patrons of the restaurant. Inessa and the server assistant were phenomenal. It was my first time visiting but I will definitely be back because their customer service was excellent!!!

    This was our first time dining at Mal Pan and we certainly will return. James was our server and he was fantastic! His recommendations were spot on. In addition to tasty margaritas; we ordered the portobello quesadilla with steak added and the torta alambra. Portions were good. The steak was very tender, which isn’t always the case in dishes like quesadillas and fajitas, so that was a pleasant surprise. Flavor of everything was deep and tasty.

    This was our first visit to Peppervine, and we will certainly be returning. The ambiance is lovely and classy. We were seated in a cozy corner half-booth, and the noise level was perfect for having a conversation. Hope, our server, was attentive and helpful throughout the meal. Cocktails: The Misty Eyed Margarita and the Wild Maple Old-Fashioned were both flavorful and well-crafted. Appetizers: The yeast rolls were warm and delicious. The burrata was also tasty, but at $28 for a small portion, it felt overpriced, especially since it wasn’t served with bread until I requested it. Entrées: While the pasta portions were on the smaller side, everything was expertly prepared and full of flavor. We tried the Bison Bolognese, Mushroom Agnolotti, and Szechuan Beef Bowl - all with thoughtful and deep flavor profiles. Dessert: We ended with the Cranberry Orange Zeppole Donuts, which were very good and a delightful way to finish the meal. Overall, it was a great experience, and we look forward to returning.
