    We sat for 2.5 hrs, dinner, dessert and coffee. The mgr kept staring at us which was disrespectful as we overstayed our welcome. The hostess did ask us to leave as someone was waiting for the table. I’ve never been asked to ever leave a restaurant in my life, this was irritating 👎

    Everything was delicious at willows. I had the double pork chop, which was big and cooked perfectly. It came with broccolini and mashed potatoes. My wife had a grilled artichoke (best she’s ever had) and crab cakes. Chris was an excellent server.

    We had a great night, from delicious specialty cocktails and in house sourdough…to uni risotto and the best smoked black cod I’ve ever had, this was a great meal! Our server Scott was friendly, efficient and knowledgeable of the menu and was just a pleasure the entire evening…definitely worth it all! We loved it

    Per usual the food and service was incredible! Our reservation was at 5:30 but the hostess Selena was kind enough to get us sat a bit earlier. Our steaks and burgers (we ate on a Wed night when they have burger night) were cooked to the perfect temperature.
