    I had the lamb and it was delicious. The beet Waldorf salad was also very good. Service was excellent and I will definitely be back.

    The food was good but given how empty the place was for the lunch hour, it took far too long for us to get our meals and an appetizer was missed but explained to us once the bill arrived that they had run out of that dish. Room for improvement as the food has been good the last few times I’ve been there.

    Food was just okay. Service was very slow. Drinks were fine. Loved the ambiance and we were lucky with the nice weather and seating on the patio.

    Always a pleasure to dine here. We celebrated a friends birthday, she was surprised by a delicious slice of chocolate birthday cake with a great torch like birthday candle. Thanks, you made her night extra special!

    Usually enjoy Beacon, but unfortunately on this visit, food was lukewarm. Soup had to be reheated. My fish was lukewarm too, although I chose not to have it reheated. Hopefully next visit will be better
