    We were not aware of DBAB until we found it on this app. After reading several positive reviews we decided to give it a try. We’ve eaten at some fine restaurants in our time but the ambience, service, and food at Dancing Bear are unrivaled by any of them! The location and decor are peaceful and welcoming. The fireplace alone is a must-see! Brad patiently explained every single item on the menu and gave us fabulous recommendations. He was on-time or ahead of us each time we needed anything. We shared the Trio of Dips, and chose the Butternut Squash Soup and Charred Caesar for starters, then topped it with the Sweet Tea Brined Pork Chop and Truffle-Topped Filet. Every detail of every dish was fantastic! Only wish we had saved room for the Bread Pudding…but there’s always next time!!!

    Christmas Buffet was excellent; variety of food choices; pleasant, attentive servers; atmosphere enjoyable; beautifully decorated. 1 suggestion: 1 person should stay at the table while others go back for more food. My husband & I went to buffet line, when we came back they had cleared our table. Our server was gracious and replaced our drinks, tableware and breadbasket.
