    Tipsy Pig continues to be a fantastic neighborhood restaurant -- loved the food, ambiance and friendly and efficient service. My partner had the crispy tacos, one of which he gave me. Superb. My Asian chicken salad was excellent.

    Our group was coming from multiple locations, Harlequin was very patient with our staggered arrival and the only real issue we had was the food arriving in batches. Many of our group had difficulty not waiting for all the food to arrive before eating. Otherwise it was a good experience. The ambiance was super cute, the food tasty, the staff cheerful. We'd come again.

    We always try to eat at Gary Danko when we are in town (from Hawaii) for special holidays in this case Christmas Eve. So grateful they were open and able to accommodate us. This is always our go to place because our daughter in law is gluten intolerant and they always graciously accommodate her (even to the point of having gluten free bread). Many restaurants will not accommodate because of possible cross contamination, but Gary Danko always welcomes us. We love the selections of courses and look forward to the muffin they give for breakfast the following morning. The only criticism I have is that there is no valet parking - so we take taxi/uber weather can be severe. You have to try this and you will keep coming back!
