   Food and service were excellent. Employees were all upbeat from the front receptionist to the folks bussing the table. I’m looking forward to my next visit. Fried chicken is the best!

   The open plate brunch and mimosa kit makes for a very enjoyable meal with friends and family.

   I was sadly disappointed with the meal here and it just was not on par with my experience at other restaurants by this same ownership group. Overall, I really dug the ambiance. They did a great job designing the restaurant to give it a unique feel. Spacious, but warm. Chic, but not stuffy. They really did a good job with the design concept. The food was fine. No really complaints, but you don't return to restaurants for food that is just fine. To be fair, we really liked our appetizers across the board. We just found the mains to be somewhat lackluster. Finally, the service was a work in progress. We were there for a birthday dinner, and they forgot to put candles in the desert. They didn't bring us utensils for our desert, and it literally took longer to bring us utensils when we reminded them that we didn't have any than it took to get desert after ordering. There were other odd quirks with the service. For a long table, the waitress oddly would not come around to the other side of the table. The same thing was true when bringing food, the servers passed the meals down through the guests at the table. It's hard to truly explain, but more like the restaurant hasn't set up any training or expectations for the staff. They were perfectly kind. Maybe overworked? But it just wasn't very smooth.

   Good food, good service. Sitting by the bar was a little loud.

   This was our first time ever dining out for Thanksgiving and it was spectacular. Everything was absolutely perfect. We ordered the pre fixe menu and each dish was better than the last. We were looking for a classic Thanksgiving meal: turkey, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green beans, stuffing and lots of vegetarian sides for our daughter. It was all exceptional. Lilly was amazing and very helpful. We’ll be back!

   Thanksgiving Dinner at The Falls was excellent. They had both a prix fixe menu and a la carte. We went with the prix fixe menu. The main course included choice of turkey, steak, pork chop or trout. I got the steak and everyone else in my 5 member party got turkey. All was tasty! Will definitely come again.

   This was our first time there and we were very pleased. The food was good and plentiful ,the service was pleasant and on this very busy night.they did a great job. There's free parking in the parking lot. One thing to know is that the booths require people to step up a bit so if you're limited in mobility or have a wheelchair ,ask for a table.

   The food was great except the sweet potato casserole. It wasn’t traditional pecans, marshmallows, and brown sugar which is my favorite. I hope next year they do it that way. Everything else was delicious.
