Great Thanksgiving experience. Traditional Thanksgiving food, of which the oven roasted turkey was the best. Richie and Brandon were great servers. We’ll definitely be back 👍

This is a great neighborhood restaurant! Service by Michal was excellent! We had the special appetizer, crispy, spicy & sweet calamari. Generous portion and very tasty. My husband ordered the chicken piccata which is one of his favorites. I had the salmon which was cooked perfectly and came with farro and lots of yummy veggies! Great restaurant with the best service!

The food is sophisticated and delicious with flavours blending Mediterranean influences with fresh local ingredients. Our group loved every dish from dips to crispy chicken to roasted carrots and cauliflower. Each dish was unique and dense with flavour. The only downside to Mayfield is the noise level. Too much
