    The cocktails at Swing are so creative and delicious. And our meal was fantastic. We had salads and soups to start and then 3 of the 4 of us had the lamb chop special. So, so good!

    Nice and warm on a chilly evening! Ambiance, delicious and original food made it extra nice! Highly recommend for a nice slow evening. Even though we were catching a show, we had time to enjoy. Our waiter made sure to move things along so we could enjoy our experience without being too rushed, but get out on time!

    Using Open Table to get on the list is perfect for weekend nights when places tend to be more busy during peak times. Our meal was great, our server was amazing, very friendly, very attentive, and you don't always get that anymore. My only complaint about this particular location is that it needs a serious table and seating remodel! Our booth's vinyl was peeling, the table had a lot of chips in it, and we have sat in other booths that have had vinyl peeling or holes in it. During the down time of Covid would have been a great time to do that like many other places did. But I'm guessing that they are also still trying to recover from the financial losses as well. I hope their corporate office does them a solid and gets that taken care of soon. Otherwise, our night was great!
