Dinner ambience is very pretty. Food was not hot except for the salt black tuna. Bland. Porkchop was tender but not outstanding. For the money the food was just ok. I have had much better for the same or less money

Lon’s is in a beautiful setting. There is a wonderful patio for outside dining and inside is lovely with separation between tables to give your party privacy. We liked that there was no loud music so we could visit with everyone in our group. Our server was professional, helpful and friendly.

Lon’s is a must go to. Their brunch on the large patio is a delightful experience. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Our server Anna is a “rock star”; great suggestions and attentive without being overbearing. We started with the Monkey bread, OMG! The best. Banana pancakes were delicious and the smoke salmon sliders were amazing. Lon’s is on the pricey side but well worth the visit. We’re going back for dinner very soon.

Do not do a priced fix menu for a special holiday. Very variable quality of the dishes. I am suspecting new owners cashing in on Lons past legacy. Or a really bad choice of chefs. I won't go back.

It had been awhile since dining at Lons, always a favorite. This was a fixed course dinner with optional wine pairing. Overall, perfect service excellent. That food and wine, both ‘fine’/good, but not outstanding or great. Factor in the price $150+$75 wine pairing (person) and I have to say there are many better options. I do love the atmosphere and there Lons is wonderful.

All 5 of the non alcoholic drinks were amazing. The trio appetizer was delicious and monkey was soft, not too sweet, and overall delectable. Entrees were a little bland in taste, however not bad at all.
