    So accommodating. The food is good , especially the cheesecake, and they go out of their way to make sure you are pleased. Shackyar was our server , very pleasant. Years ago, my mother who had Parkinson disease, was having a little trouble cutting her food and Andy noticed and cut everything for her. So kind.

    On a quick getaway to Longwood Gardens and the surrounding area, we had dinner at the Mendenhall Inn restaurant. For us, the menu was fantastic. Many wonderful options from which to choose. I started with one of the house specialties, snapper soup, which was great. Snapper soup is hard to find these days. My wife had the Brussel sprouts w/bacon appetizer. Very good and so large we brought 2/3 of it home. For entrees, my wife had the stuffed lobster tail which was a large lobster tail (at least 6 oz) with crab loaded Crab Imperial. Excellent. I had marinated half duck with plum sauce. Very good. Both entrees came with wasabi mashed potatoes and veg of the day. The wasabi mashed potatoes were different and really good. As we were celebrating our birthdays, our server, Andy, told us we were entitled to a complimentary molten lava cake which came with two scoops of ice cream and whipped cream. I'm not a dessert person, but it was really good. Service could not have been better. Our server, Andy, was excellent. Extremely knowledgeable and experienced, attentive but not intrusive. Even after we forgot our take-home bag, he was outside waving to us to deliver our bag. A wonderful, classic "old school" restaurant with a fantastic menu, fair prices, and great service. Highly recommend.

    Parking was not good. Had to park way far away as there were a high school reunion and a wedding and a big birthday party.

    As usual, our meal was absolutely delicious. Our waiter, Andy was polite and genuinely friendly. The prices were high but everything is , these days. For our anniversary dinner it was well worth it.
