    Nice quiet Thursday eve. vibe. All 5 of us had great meals. We should have ordered bread for the table, but food did come out at a reasonable time.

    First time at The Courthouse. The New Years Eve dinner accompanied by a jazz trio was terrific. Excellent food (marinated vegetable appetizer was outstanding as weee the large, fluffy Parker House rolls and the Halibut in a lobster sauce). Definitely worth a return visit.

    Delicious meal with really wonderful service! We did find it odd that you can’t enter the building from the street, you must walk down a dark driveway and enter from the parking lot in rear. It was moderately decorated for the holidays, when that’s removed I get the sense the restaurant would lack a bit in ambiance.
