    Have been to Gertrude's a few times and it has always been enjoyable. This visit was, as expected, just as memorable. The original cocktail was interesting and wonderfully flavorful. The other classic cocktail was expertly mixed and was like a visit from an old friend. Food was delicious and beautifully presented. What really made the night complete was the charming and helpful server, Grace. No matter how good food and drink is, a restaurant either succeeds or fails based on the quality of the service. Fortunately, this restaurant has staff as lovely and accommodating as Grace. Thank you all for a wonderful birthday dinner.

    Cipriana is a restaurant that never disappoints. We have dined there at least 5 times in the last year. It is also a great place for a special occasion, such as a birthday. The sesame encrusted feta cheese and the cheese puffs are our favorite appetizers. This last visit we tried the flatbreads - I had the crab which was sooooo good and had ample amounts of lump crab. My husband had the lamb and beef flatbread which was also very good. And, their pistachio baklava is a must for anyone wanting a sweet desert!! Highly recommend Cipriana for wonderful food and service.

    Delicious salad w baby tomatoes, ricotta, pine nuts, and red leaf lettuce and excellent wild mushroom risotto. Yummy dessert - little fried doughballs, very light and tasty. Attentive and friendly service, with good suggestions when asked. Came for late ish lunch on Sunday and ate in pleasant dining room with stone walls and wooden benches. We usually have dined on the patio, which is also pleasant when it’s not too cold. A favorite place for us.
