It is always lovely to visit Highwood; the culinary students are doing a great job. The menu are well presented by the server, who is always kind and polite. The food presentation was spot-on and beautiful. I had the salad Nicoise / Spinach dip and a Mushroom pizza, and all tasted good. The only comment I would have today is the Mushroom pizza was a bit on the dry side, and my "personal" choice is always to give the mushroom a quick saute before adding to the pizza, but it was ok. Not the last visit :-)

This is the most decadent, satisfying happy hour menu I have ever encountered, anywhere, ever. The meat was all melt in your mouth, the pickles exquisite. Top shelf, all of it. The only reason I did not give 5 stars for service is that while my server, a lovely human who made my 89 year old Dad feel at home, others have prompted to write the facility privately. Still highly recommend.
