    Superfine brunch with kids: breakfast burrito was rated “very tasty,” as were the burger (“this is huge!”), fried chicken sandwich (“very good”), and the kids’ chicken fingers with fries (“these are like *fancy* chicken fingers!”). I had the farro with roasted vegetables and it was tasty and filling - I had enough for leftovers. As for the 4 kids I brought - all plates were clean at the end of the meal! Great atmosphere to chill on the weekend. Football games were on for those interested but kids were fine hanging out and able to run around outside at Runway when they needed to.

    The ambience was great, food was delicious. Service was Ok. Our waitress asked us if we wanted our burrito wet or dry. We asked her if she can explain what it looks like as a wet burrito. She said we can get either green or red salsa which she is on the top. We decided to get a burrito, but asked for green and red salsa on the side. when we got the bill we noticed that there was a $3.50 fee for each salsa, green and red (probably approximately less than 1/4 of a cup. I wish I would’ve known, for $7.00. I could’ve bought an entire jar from Costco’s. Don’t order the salsa before asking additional. That was disappointing.

    Repeat experience, and it was just as great as the first! Smoked Trout Dip appetizer was out of this world. Liked it even better than the Crab Dip we had on our first visit, which was delicious as well. Lobster Roll is so fresh and wonderful! And we found out afterwards we can substitute the chips for other veggies they have. Pasta with cracked pepper (Cacio e Pepe) was amazing. Would love this with blackened shrimp! Great wine selections and tasty cocktails. Fabulous service and beautiful ambience. We’ll be back. Again. 😊
