We got married here 10 years ago and come back here for special occasions. Food and service is always outstanding. If it didn't take an hour to get here from our house we'd probably eat here once a month!

We had a wonderful dinner at Greenbriar; celebrating my wife’s birthday. This was our first visit to Greenbriar after receiving many recommendations from others. The service was excellent and personal. The dishes were of exceptional quality and taste. We really appreciated that most of their ingredients are locally sourced, organic and regeneratively raised/produced. We will be certainly be returning again in the near future. I especially appreciated our waitress, Valerie. She was knowledgeable, fun and professional. The staff also treated my wife to a delicious, complementary cheesecake for her birthday celebration. I highly recommend The Greenbriar Inn for dinner and look forward to visiting again soon.

The Greenbriar is a treasure. We had the Halibut and the Veal Medallions and both were excellent. Finished off with a Creme Brulé. Wonderful as always and great ambiance.

Thank you for taking the time to let us know! I agree, I love the halibut and the Creme Brule is second to none. Hope to see you in again soon!

We attended for Thanksgiving dinner. The cold buffet was half empty - no clean plates, no Caesar salad, cold rolls. Dinner buffet was good except the dressing was dry and had fruit in it. The pumpkin pie was very good. The waitstaff was really on top of it - refilling water, etc. Took some time to get my cocktail tho. Was not worth the $80 per plate.
Greenbriar Inn, TheResponded 7 days ago
Katie, Sorry to hear your experience wasn't what you were hoping to have. We had a dedicated staff member to all aspects of each buffet table and kept the food coming hours past our last seating. I agree with you on the delicious pies and wish all aspect of the meal had exceed expectations. We serve ala carte every night we are open (outside of our buffet holiday meals - Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Easter, and Mothers Day) and would love if you gave us another try!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner with our family. We had an unexpected add on a week before and the owner worked very hard to find a seating time that would accommodate all of us. Our waiter Don was fantastic, he did a great job and kudos to him for working from morning to night! We all appreciate the entire staff for hosting us on a holiday and sacrificing their family time!
Greenbriar Inn, TheResponded 7 days ago
Thanks for the review Michelle! We agree, Don is a true pro. We do our best to accommodate any needs our guests have - just let us know! I will make sure the staff hears your kudos, every kind word counts. Thank you again!
