    Always a memorable night at Bliss. Was greeted by Ron the owner, who is just a charming, outgoing host. Sat my 92 y/o dad as he made his way in his walker to our table. Great apps including bacon wrapped dates, Ceasar salad, chicken pot pie and more. Followed by entrees of their outstanding burger, salmon and chilean sea bass all cooked perfectly. Dominic our waiter was fantastic. You can’t go wrong coming home to Bliss, an excellent choice for dinner.

    Unfortunately, for Valentines Day, it wasn’t the quiet romantic atmosphere we had hoped for. There was a very loud group with a baby and small child at a corner table in our room of otherwise couples.

    When my babysitter cancelled last minute, my husband and I were worried about bringing our almost two year old to a 6 course tasting meal but we were very pleasantly surprised! The staff was so kind and helpful and we had such a wonderful time! So did our son - he had lots to look at and everyone was so friendly:). Our waitress was so sweet and the service was perfect. We did the 6 course tasting menu and it was amazing, every course was delicious. One of the best and fun meals we’ve had in a long time! Thank you, State Room!
