    The Falls at any time is one of our family's "happy spots." And, today @ Thanksgiving with its special menu was even more so. The menu choices were varied with a lot of emphasis on vegetables. We ordered the fixed price menu: lobster bisque and the crab croquettes, then the grilled pork chop and the trout, both with fixin's, wrapped up with chocolate flan. Our meals were delicious from start to finish and good value. we had the prosecco and draft Virginia cider which both went well with the food. Service was prompt and helpful, even at this busy time. The bartender gave me excellent advice on a smooth bourbon to finish. We couldn't ask for a better holiday meal - - and no dishes to clean after!
