    Surprisingly delicious brunch. I’ve been here many times for drinks and for dinner, but never for brunch. Food was really great and the brunch cocktails were excellent.

    We come here again and again- the food is always prepared well, delicious, and the service is great! There is great value in the price. The chef has some inventive specials and the menu has great standbys like veal and chicken parm for those who resist trying something different. The Garlic Shrimp appetizer is so big, it’s easily a meal- and delicious. Their Chilled Octopus Salad was really a star this night- the octopus was cooked perfectly, not chewy but tender, and the salad dressing was outstanding. The pasta dishes are always good, and they serve a large plate of it, done al dente. I had the shrimp and scallop special in a pink cream sauce over linguine- outstanding! My husband’s Pork Chop with pineapple salsa special was delicious as well. We have had parties here too and the service then was attentive and quick, too. Thank Goodness this restaurant continues to thrive!

    I had heard about Rails from numerous people who have always raved about it. So, I was very excited in anticipation. The restaurant is beautiful right alongside the Towaco Railroad Station. Plenty of help valet parking but a bit of a walk to get inside. The ambiance is nice with an extensive top notch wine list. But our waitress was not as knowledgeable about the menus that might have been a good opportunity for an upsell for our order. And it was kind of hard to get over that my guest’s lobster tail arrived raw. In sending it back when I asked the waitress about it she said oh! I didn’t talk to them, they’re very busy with it being the holiday. . . Not a very good first impression. Not even an apology. I would go back though. And I understand you can take a tour and go through the secret door to the bar in the cellar. The menu is a la carte which make it seem expensive, but the prices are actually quite reasonable.
