An incredible experience from beginning to end. The food was innovative yet familiar, and each dish was incredible. Our server was outstanding and her enthusiasm when describing the courses and our wine pairings elevated the entire experience. Service overall was comparable to 3+ Michelin starred restaurants. We didn’t expect it to be *this* great, but they’re definitely overachieving at North Pond. Can’t wait for a return visit!

Mon Ami Gabi is a perennial favorite, particularly for the holiday season. The restaurant is decked out for the holiday and always feels so warm and cozy. The food and service are excellent year round as well, but this is a special time to visit.

The food was soooo good! Loved the Leek & Egg plant, Shrimp cocktail, and french onion fondue. Steaks were delicious and cooked to perfection. The sides of fries, Cauliflower, whipped potatoes, and mushrooms were to die for! Needless to say we didn’t make it to dessert, but the service was impeccable and overall it was sooo great!

Everyone and everything? Fabulous! This was our first time in, and after a challenging year, it was the perfect Christmas Eve dinner! The bar service was lovely and Dimitri was especially attentive. The French Onion Soup was brilliant. and it was a very generous portion. My pasta and my dh's burger were divine. The creme brulee = YES. Honestly, it's SO about the vibe–cathedral ceilings and belle epoque design gave the impression of grandeur we love (NEED) when dining out! Happy New Year to all! 🍾🥂🪩
