    The Venetian is our favorite spot to go to. It’s very warm and welcoming and the food continues to be creative and very good. We especially like the pasta dishes as they are homemade with organic flour and the pork chop and steaks never a disappointment.

    The hostess and servers worked with me to make our Valentine’s dinner extra special. The place is not cheap, but the food is always great.

    Buckley's is well known in our region as one of the better places to dine, especially if one seeks a good steak. We were not disappointed. I got the sugar cured strip loin and my dining partner ordered the filet mignon. Both cooked precisely as we preferred (medium well). The preliminaries (bread with olive oil, a salad for my dining partner) were tasty without being too filling. The core meal was delicious. The server (Laura) was attentive and friendly. She muffed my beer order but I am not very picky -- she ended up crediting us anyway. Two of the five dessert offerings were sold out; we settled for the blueberry crisp, and it was excellent.
