    The new Relish is everything you could want in a local restaurant. Easy to get a reservation. Lots of parking. No wait time to be seated. Comfortable and pretty decor. Quick and competent service. Friendly general manager roaming. The cocktails and the wine were excellent. The appetizers were delicious and came out quickly and piping hot. The crab cake was full of lump crabmeat and almost too big, Ha. The beet salad was creative and yummy. The hamburger already has a fine reputation from the original location and it did not disappoint. Someone go "Kiss the Chef" because he is doing a fine job. I am thrilled that in early February, Relish will extend its hours to include lunch, a happy hour and weekend brunches. I think I have found my favorite local restaurant.

    Everything was going great until our server disappeared When we were ready to leave , he was nowhere to be found. He finally came out and we asked him for the check and he disappeared again. We finally had to find a manager to her our check and waited five more minutes to get it. It left a disappointment at the end of an amazing dinner.

    I really like the menu. It has a little bit of everything. The ambiance is pretty. But I must say above all the service was excellent! Ask to sit in Kyla’s section. She is so nice so attentive. She smiled the whole time and it was busy when we arrived. She made my experience even better! Thank you!

    Tasty food, casual or semi dressy attire, and a very energetic atmosphere. Both times I’ve been has been during the Christmas season so it has been consistently packed. But the service has been great nonetheless.
