    This was our first time at Bloom. I found it on Open table, so I thought we’d give it a try. I chose Valentine’s Day dinner and Bloom didn’t disappoint in the least. It was easy to get to and plenty of parking available. I had made reservations of course and we only had to wait a few minutes for them to ready our table. Once seated our waiter Darin greeted us. The restaurant was very nice and not to noise. They have a great menu selection and drinks to go along with dinner. The food came piping hot in very generous portions and very delicious. The service was excellent. The dessert was very good. Overall it was and excellent dinning experience. I would highly recommend that you Give Bloom a try. Also meal pricing is competitive and fare.

    In spite of a dismal, rainy day, I was delighted the minute that we walked in the door. The hostess had obviously read my comments when I made our reservation, and greeted us warmly. All of my requests had been met, we were served by a charming, knowledgeable server, and we enjoyed a delicious lunch and a carafe of excellent Cabernet Sauvignon. Topping that off with a luscious dark chocolate torte and fresh- brewed coffee, our time there could not have been better. My thanks to the wonderful, caring staff and your excellent chef!

    I always enjoy this restaurant. As a wine club member it’s a great deal. This was my first time going to their brunch and the pesto omelet with goat cheese was delicious. Shout out to Jeffrey the manager and kudos to Ben the bartender for such great service.
