We ordered from the brunch menu. I had the Breakfast Fried Rice. It was a large portion and very delicious! My friend got the Fittata Omlette which is always her favorite.

Linwoods consistently delivers on every facet of a fine fining experience. It is typically busy but never boisterous. Comfortable seating with enough separation for intimacy if needed. The servers are professional and polished. From drinks through dessert everything is perfectly crafted. Nothing is just average or fine. This is one of the rare restaurants where you actually get your money’s worth. By the way, if you’re a chocoholic get the old fashioned ice cream sundae with extra chocolate sauce on the side. Heaven.

One of the best meals of my life. Service, vibe, food, cocktail were all impeccable but in a completely not pretentious way. Every bite on the tasting menu was complex and flavorful, that left you considering and thinking after each bite. It was simply SO GOOD.
