    High value from start to finish. Service was outstanding and the food from a fig salad, grilled oysters, a squash side dish, fried anchovies, skate wings, halibut and a pecan pie topped with chocolate covered vanilla ice cream was first rate. A reasonable wine, beer and cocktail section rounded out the menu. Prices were moderate considering the quality. The good humor and friendliness of staff were notable as well. A very enjoyable experience.

    Met up with a longtime friend for a long overdue lunch. We chose The Refectory since it was mid way between our two homes. This was the first time each of had dined there and the experience was very enjoyable. Food, service, and atmosphere were all great. Definitely a return visit will be in the works.
