Both the food and service experience are diminished compared to the past. This has been true for the past few times I’ve been there recently. Inattentive staff and errors in food orders are now typical. I hope it gets sorted out.

I was surprised that my faro salad was basically a pasta dish. It was served hot with the cheese melted in and wasn’t what I had expected from a “ bowl”. It was still good but I was looking for a bit less faro and more tomatoes and arugula…

My friend ordered the scallops which were $35 with no sides. He received 3 scallops. Were these scallops worth $12 a piece. No, they were overcooked and rubbery. We should've known that we were there at 7PM on a Saturday night and the place was virtually empty. Never again

It was a good experience. My server, a Latina who has been there several years, was outstanding. She has a way of appearing at just the right moment with a suggestion or choices that always suited us well. But the food was only okay, not up to Heirloom’s high standards, despite the enticing descriptions. The half roasted chicken was a little too dry in the breast and the Delicata squash that accompanied it was so overcooked, it almost disintegrated among the spätzle. But the Caesar salad was great, with plenty of anchovies even though the kitchen split the dish before serving it to us.

We went for brunch. The food was delicious. The bagel and gravlox, bacon and egg sandwich, and ricotta pancakes with blueberries were scrumptious. The service was friendly and professional. It was 11am and closed the blinds. This was a little wierd given the beautiful weather, and they never refilled our water bottle, but these are little things and we never actually asked them to refill the water. This is a great place for a family meal, meet up with friends

The restaurant was particularly slow. It took a long time to get our food and when it came it was cold. We didn’t send it back because we didn’t want to wait again. None of us thought our meals were good.

Food super excellent, as always. Took quite some time to get water and cream for the coffee (had to ask two different people) at the start, and had no spoons.

Delicious dinner and great service. It is very loud once the place fills up, so keep that in mind.
