Excellent food, the salmon, the beef pappardelle, and desserts paired with friendly, attentive service (Thanks Hermes). A very enjoyable evening at our favorite local restaurant; they just know how to do 'things' right.

The menu is pretty diverse - which is helpful when you're trying to find a place for a group with different dietary needs and preferences. The food was outstanding - especially for the price. Waitstaff was very friendly and the atmosphere is cute without being stuffy.

We always get the pear salad, which never disappoints. I had the halibut special which was seared perfectly with a bacon jam that was so delicious. There were so many flavors complementing each other. I want it again soon!

Acacia had a beautiful and polished atmosphere. I loved the divider they used to separate the large party from the main dining area for privacy. The menu had fabulous and diverse options. I had an autumn themed dinner and tried duck, which was delicious! Great service!

Delicious pork shank recipe this visit, and the same was true for the duck breast, the previous weekend. The seasonal menu has some very nice offerings which I hope to try over the next few weeks. The New England clam chowder is an outstanding preparation!
