    This was my first time in Dogwood and it was a fabulous evening! We had reserved for Savor Fest and had a 3 course meal, appetizer, entree and dessert. The mixed drink (Ivory Halo) I had was unique and very fresh and flavorful. The duck and dumpling appetizer was exquisite, though a bit rich. I had the farm fresh trout entree and it had two wonderful sauces that added just the right amount of accent. The homemade cheesecake, which we learned from our server is the owner's mother's recipe.......fantastic! And by the way, our server Sophia was so fun, knowledgeable, had great recommendations. An overall outstanding evening!

    very understaffed for a Saturday night (apparently lots of people called out of work). Entrees took forever to come out and so did dessert (and when dessert did come out, no utensils came so had to wait on that too) requested the check after receiving dessert and waitress forgot we asked for it so had to ask someone else. Very irritating date night to say the least, probably will only go back for cocktails, they were good.

    The new location is quite attractive. The food was not as inventive as I had remembered. My dish was really boring. Plus, the dessert menu was a yawn - I think you can do better than this.

    Unfortunately left disappointed. Everything was slow from ordering drinks and paying at the bar to ordering and receiving food at the table. We had high hopes compared to our original Dogwood experiences. Food, drinks and wine were good but overall left annoyed. Sat at our table for 30minutes before our initial server realized whoever he “thought” was taking us never appeared. After this he was helpful but still lagging to a degree. Steak came out rear (ordered mid rear), and we are not the type to send steak back… Also the 2 hostess stands is problematic. Fingers crossed this is “opening growing pains” but would rather go to sister spots like fin and fino or chapter six instead.

    Food and drinks were amazing, server was very friendly and great! Our only complaint was the length of time it took. It was too long in between courses and drinks at times took too long to come. We had a reservation at 6:15 and dinner took till almost 8pm for just the two of us.
