   Everything was good except the noise level at lunchtime in the main part of the restaurant. We could not hear each other speak. We had to move to the annex in back, which was fine.

   Not a great experience and food overpriced for quality. Absolutely no parking , had to move from one 30min spot to another 20min. Fairly slow service. Quite stressful and not worth it. don’t recommend.

   Antonio the som was wonderful & so helpful. Our server was both sweet & knowledgeable with the menu, & helped to accommodate our dietary restrictions. The kitchen was so kind to split our shared entrees into 3, all plated beautifully. Highly recommend this restaurant

   Delicious as always! We had great food and great service. The only downside was we were seated at a 2 top near the door and I was cold. I’ll avoid that table in the future!!!

   We Love the Village Bakery and come for lunch or dinner several times throughout the year. The food is great, the atmosphere is inviting, and the service is always excellent. We discovered that they also host occasional wine tasting dinners, which are really fun.
