    We had an awesome time dining at Fathoms. We celebrated my friends 91st birthday. Everyone was wonderful to her and staff treated her like loyalty. Food was delicious and large portions. “Bree” our waitress was wonderful. I left my credit card at the table and “Bree” ran outside in the cold to give it to me. Will definitely be back.

    Didn’t eat. Had reservation and was seated in bar on a stool. The Mrs. has a back ailment that prohibited her from sitting on an a stool. The host told us to take the table and take a chair should someone leave the bar We left.
