The food was excellent. The Herb Fries appetizer was impossible to stop eating, so we, unfortunately, had to skip dessert. Our server, Rachel, was an attentive delight.

We always enjoy Ironwood. Their craft cocktails are interesting and delicious, and we love the duck wing appetizers. Our server was fun and attentive. It's a little pricy, but worth it, especially for special occasions.

Went with 4 friends - group of 5 and it was amazing. Really loved all Rebekah’s help when ordering- so knowledgeable. Food was great! Definitely coming back again. I had the lamb shank. Large portion- enough for lunch tomorrow. Butter salad was great and oatmeal crumble cookie with ice cream was the perfect dessert. Will definitely come again and ask for Rebekah

Food was outstanding, and our waitress, Brook, was excellent, but so was the rest of the staff, from the hostess, to the bus boy, and everyone else who was part of the TEAM. Highly recommend.
