   The dining experience was overall OK; I would not run back there again in a frantic hurry. The food was acceptably good, however, I had the grilled shrimp and they were much too salty. There were 2 of us in my party; we were given 2 rolls. I do appreciate that the brocolli was actually cooked, rather than "crisp" as a lot of foodies would like. I had a glass of sangria: the restaurant needs to learn what a wine glass is, as this was served in a candy-dish type glass, awkward to hold. And, I should add, full of ice.

   Hello Sheila, Thank you for the feedback. I apologize that you found the shrimp to be saltier than you like. We serve the rolls one per person so as not to diminish your appetite, but you are always welcome to request more of their deliciousness! The sangria is served in what is considered to be a fun glass, but if you would rather it be served in a large wine glass just let your server know and we will be more than happy to oblige. We hope to see you again in the future Sincerely, Amy Murphy GM

   Had the restaurant week special lunch. Not as great as I’m used to having here. Should have stuck w regular menu.

   Too slow for a business lunch service. Please speed up the pace for business diners.

   Waitress was great, and food was good and service was very quick. Although there wasn’t much time between apps and dinner our waitress didn’t rush us and allowed us to enjoy our meal at our speed.

   Enjoyed a delicious lunch today at Chestnut Hill ordering the Fish Sandwich. Legal's is always a favorite. 😍

   Good, service drinks were great. It was restaurant week so I took my family there and we got the food off the menu and we all loved the choices we got and it was worth it.
