A great addition to Glenwood South that we thoroughly enjoyed on our first visit. Attentive personable service with excellent prepared cocktails and food.. Tender, flavorful short rib and was delightedly suprised by the squash ravioli. We were planning our next visit before leaving, which is our best compliment.
