   We had the pleasure of having another phenomenal meal @ Parlor House. Chef Ryan is a very talented and we are very fortunate to be able to participate in his culinary masterpieces so close to home.

   So we started with pomme frites, the Bernaise sauce was not good and the fries were burnt. Very disappointing. I then ordered the tempura shrimp which were good but the presentation was underwhelming and the dish was overpriced. My friend ordered a drink, there was no alcohol that she could identify. But the biggest disappointment was the bananas foster, it was an overripe banana swimming in a watered down caramel sauce. It was supposed to have whipped cream but it did not. We did order ice cream to go with it that was served on the side. We will not be returning to Parlor House, I don't see how they can stay in business. We have dined at this restaurant in the past but the current owners need to rethink what they are doing.

   Regina, after speaking with you on the phone and trying to have a sincere conversation about how your experience was, I can honestly say I don't care if you ever come back because I don't want someone like you in my establishment. I suggest you learn proper restaurant etiquette. All you are doing by this review is hurting a small family owned business. I was willing to refund your entire meal, but after being so insulted by your negative, entitled comments, I am happy to keep your money knowing you will never return. -Ryan Steffensmeier- Owner/Chef

   Our first time eating here and it reached all the expectations! The birthday dinner for my husband was exactly what he wanted so that's a huge win for me. The filets were excellent, he loved his french onion soup and devoured the baguette. Servers were friendly and attentive.

   Outstanding as always. We come up from South Florida and take my parents there at least once a month.

   Food was absolutely delicious and better than expected. We started with the beef tartare and mussels both were great. The cream sauce with the mussels was so good we had to get more bread for dunking! Then we had the duck contfit and beef Wellington. The Duck was amazing and a favorite of ours. It was moist and yet crispy skin. The Beef Wellington was good just felt the puff pastry could have been a little more done and was too soft. But the meat was great and it all tasted amazing! Will definitely come back again.
