   We visited this restaurant for the second time and vow to always try and stop by here for dinner whenever we are in the area. This time, we were slightly disappointed in the food. We had the cheddar ale soup but the ale flavor was a little too overpowering. We ordered the lamb shank could have been more flavorful and the couscous was too watery. The cod was delicious. Wish they had a few more dessert options. We will still be coming back only because we still love everything about the restaurant - but maybe we will order different dishes next time. Also shoutout to Terry who is always very sweet to us. See you next time!

   Lovely table setting and sufficiently secluded. Our dinner was unconventional- a mix sharing approach of same plates and entrees- our server Audrey was professional and personable - excellent all around.

   Our evening at the Reluctant Panther was very nice. We were with a couple that had never been here. This was our 3rd dinner at the restaurant. The atmosphere of the restaurant is attractive and comfortable. Tables are not so closer that you can over hear other guests. The menu offers a good number of choices and variety.

   At 5:30 on a Thursday I was the first one there, since I was staying at the Panther too. I was treated like a queen and waited on appropriately. It's a lovely restaurant, food was great. I still have half here in the frig. I didn't mind being alone, I go all over by myself. And the hotel is EXCELLENT and wonderful! I LOVE it here!!!
