Nice menu. Great service. Nice ambiance. I can’t justify the $25 aneíjo tequila Manhattan I ordered but somehow they can get NYC prices entertaining their clientele.

Hi Michael, Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad you liked the menu, ambience, and felt service was great. We take our drinks seriously, and we hold ourselves to the standards you find in NYC!

The service and food are outstanding in a very comfortable relaxed environment. We were entertaining family from Chicago and the staff was very friendly and did not rush us at all. We had superb service —always attentive but not intrusive. The food was excellent especially the trout. And the cocktails were literally “ perfect”.

Lovely evening at Wm Farmer & Son. Food was delicious. Red wine (Montalcino) rich and full bodied. Steak superb and salad yummy (but a tad too much green goddess dressing). Bread toasted and yummy. Thank you to our kind and attentive waiter. we will be back!
Wm. Farmer and SonsResponded on November 26, 2024
Dear Joanna, We’re pleased you had a lovely evening. It makes sense when you mention pairing the Montalcino with your steak and salad! It’s good to know everything was yummy and we appreciate your note on the salad. Thank you for pointing out the quality of the service, too. We look forward to next time!
