    We love this restaurant - so many good choices for food and beverage. Servers are friendly and knowledgeable and efficient. Disappointed however that they were out of the poke bowl and the server did not let us know on arrival (only after we ordered it). A little noisy.

    We were a party of three last night and made reservations to sit on the patio. We prefer the patio because it can get pretty loud inside. Our waiter, Alec made the evening - he was simply outstanding. We ordered two appetizers because we had to have the Cold Smoked Salmon (which is out of this world) so we added the Steamed Mussels. To our delight, the mussels were fabulous. My husband ordered his usual - the fish and chips. The fish is lightly battered and is delicious. We've recommended Wildflower just for the fish and chips. The Pork Scallopini and the Short Rib Ravioli did not disappoint. Of course, we saved room for the Banoffee Trifle for dessert, my favorite! Our granddaughter was very impressed the restaurant lived up to our hype. Again, thank you Alec for a wonderful evening!

    La Paloma just keeps improving! Since the renovation, the food has been outstanding, and the staff is incredibly friendly. Managers Guisela and Adam are sharp, with excellent planning. Everyone around us was enjoying themselves, and hosting a Super Bowl party was a fantastic idea. Can’t wait for next year! It’s great to see La Paloma getting better and better—fantastic job, everyone!
