    The Sunday Brunch is very good at The Rail. The selections are plentiful and very tasty. The French Toast casserole is always wonderful. We did miss the melodious sounds of the pianist which added a certain sense of elegance.

    It was our first Christmas Eve in town, and we wanted a quaint and local place with amazing food. We haven't been to Back Burner in some a couple years, but in my search, I noticed they were open for C.Eve. I made us reservations right away. It was the perfect place for our Christmas Eve dinner. The menu was a special holiday selection, so it was simple, but still had a nice variety of options to satisfy any taste we had (from steak to seafood to pasta). The service was amazing and the food was delicious. Not only will we return, but we would spend our holiday here again if the opportunity arose. Thank you for taking such great care of us!

    Deerfield does not disappoint. Our family tradition of Brunch with Santa continued this year. The food was delicious, the service was spot on. They were both attentive without being overbearing. Thank you for giving the opportunity to keep a treasured transition going!

    Service was great when the waitress actually showed up. Menu was odd but what we ordered we liked. Would have ordered more after apps if our waitress ever returned. We called it a night and went to grab wings. Good concept poor execution.
