Holiday luncheon with 5 friends in a beautifully decorated and elegant atmosphere. Servers were attentive and very personable. Our table enjoyed the caramelized apple flatbread and spanakopitta appetizers. Entrees were the Sole Frances and Sesame Salmon, Limerick Chicken Murphy, Chicken Milanese, and Petite Sirloin. Portions were large and were delicious. The only complaint was that the Sirloin was tough. The Creme Brulee for dessert was outstanding. The restaurant was crowded and loud but still very enjoyable. We highly recommend lunch at Scarborough Fair.
