    My Fiance and I went to Plough for Valentine’s day. The food was out of the world. The waiter, L, was amazing as well and took good care of us, always making sure our waters were full and explaining the menu items to us! For a valentine’s day meal we were surprised with a rose at the end which added a super special touch to the evening. 10/10, 5 stars, would highly recommend. If I could give more stars I would!!!

    We had a lovely Valentine’s Day experience in a quiet section of our favorite restaurant. Our server was charming, efficient, and helpful. Our food was delicious and my Frosted Fig refreshment was outstanding. From appetizers to desserts we were delighted with our dining experience.

    Greenfield never disappoints! I had the scallops and veggies and they were delicious and melted in my mouth! The hot, fresh bread and butter were to good to stay away from! Our waitress was a hoot and the chef came out and said hello! We would do it again for a special occasion!
