    The four of us enjoyed our lunch very much. It was quiet enough to have a pleasant four-way conversation. The waitstaff was accommodating and professional. And the food was more than satisfactory to each of us. Two of us had the spring rolls and two of us had the salad with apples and Gorgonzola. Everyone was happy. We shared the crème. Brûlée for desert. Made us even happier.

    The food was very good. Even though I had reservations we were seated in the bar area next to a group celebrating a birthday. The people,seated at the table, were enthusiastically celebrating which was distracting. There was ample seating in the dining room, but we were not offered that location. It has been a long time since I have been to Sun Dried Tomato. I missed the table cloths and more classic dining atmosphere.
