    GREAT! Always incredible food and incredible, kind, friendly service. Don't know what you want? Just ask your server. They always have great tips for you. Do not drive by the Woodbury! A wonderful place for breakfast, lunch or dinner!

    We loved everything about this restaurant. We wanted creative, light fare, and this was the perfect place for us. We had the edamame dumplings appetizer and a couple of noodle bowls for entrees; all were delicious and came to our table quickly. The service was fantastic. The server was attentive and answered all of our questions. It was very easy to have a conversation, and the seating was comfortable. We loved this place. I felt very comfortable wearing dress casual attire, but would feel less comfortable in casual attire because it is a very nice setting.

    We came here for wife’s birthday on Sunday evening. It was not busy at that time, but we were well taken care of with complementary glasses of sparkling wine and macarons enough for two. All dishes were very good while you see a nice downtown view. It’s a hidden gem. Highly recommend!
