    All I can’t say is book it through Open Table and you won’t be disappointed. The skip the line was right on time. From the hostess to seating, service, and the fooood, it was just plain ole fun. Our Christmas was super Merry and bright because everything was just right!!!

    We arrived 15 minutes before our reservation and our table was ready and we were seated immediately. Our food came out very quickly and was exactly as we ordered. Everything tasted great and all the staff were very cordial and helpful. We highly recommend Calhoun’s!!

    Was seated immediately, thanks to Open Table. Server and trainee came and took our drink orders while we checked out the menu. After looking it over we knew exactly what we wanted, the Turkey Special. It was great! The servers kept coming back to our table to check on us. We will be back on our next vacation.

    We always eat here once we get to PF. We love the ambience. We also have been lucky enough to get by fireplace for last 3 years when we are able to go. Waiter was excellent, food was good. Good experience
