    I visited to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday and arrived about five minutes early for our reservation. Unfortunately, we were informed that due to traffic delays, our table would be pushed back by 45 minutes. While the delayed start was a bit disappointing, the service at the bar was excellent as we enjoyed a drink while we waited. Overall, it turned into a pleasant experience thanks to the attentive staff and great atmosphere.

    Booked our work lunch - the atmosphere was so cozy and decorated for the holidays. We were greeted by our server, Ben who was kind and attentive. We started with the Spinach Dip - Soooo good. The bread was freshly baked to order, the dip was complimented by the whole table. Since we came for lunch, we all decided to order the lunch special. So much food! The salads were fresh, crisp, and cold. I had a pasta while my coworkers ordered mini pizzas. Even though the entrees were lunch sized, we all were stuffed. We had refills upon request, and my coworker loved the Iced Tea. Next time we schedule a work lunch, Willow Street will be in the rotation.
