   Hadn't visited this restaurant in 5+ years. But it was very enjoyable, perhaps better than I remembered. Great menu variety

   A limited menu with well prepared options. Good service. A bit on the noisy side, not helped by a keyboardist on a Saturday night. A bit rushed; I felt the staff was looking to flip the table.

   This neighborhood gem is a hidden treasure! Nestled in a strip shopping center with plenty of parking, it offers a welcoming atmosphere and a menu with something for everyone. The longtime staff is always warm and friendly, making every visit a pleasure. Fresh, generous portions and moderately priced dishes make it a great spot for catching up with friends or celebrating a special occasion.

   Second visit to this wonderful place. It didn’t disappoint. We had the Shrimp Ajo for appetizer, Duck Breast and Filet Mignon for entrees. For desert we had the crime brûlée. All were perfectly prepared and delicious. We highly recommend this place. It’s tucked away in a little shopping center but don’t let that discourage you. You will be amazed.

   Our first time at Idylwood Grill and we don't know why we hadn't found this place before. Wow, what a pleasant surprise. My boyfriend and I have been to many top notch restaurants before but this one takes the prize. I had the Salmon Caesar and my BF had the Linguine Cardinals. Both were delicious. My BF says that's the best Cardinale he has ever had. We highly recommend this place for their food, their service and their ambiance. This is our new favorite restaurant.

   Excellent place to eat. Reasonable prices, lots of specials and good quality food. They were about 10 minutes late seating us from our reservation time and took $25 off the bill without us saying a word. Will definitely be back!

   The food was excellent. Got the mixed grill and each meat was cooked perfectly. Partner got the blackened scallops and reported that they were great. Space is nice and appointed well. Only knock was the lighting, a little bright.

   Thanks for dining with us Steve! We're glad to hear the mixed grill and the blackened scallops were excellent. As far as the lighting, it looks like an employee forgot to hit the dimmer. Hope to see you again soon for brunch, lunch or dinner.

    The seafood linguine presentation was very attractive and the taste was amazing. My husband had the jambalaya and thought it was delicious as well. We also shared the avocado salad and German chocolate cake…both were very good. I’d like a repeat of this meal monthly and my husband agrees.
