    LOVE THIS RESTAURANT!!!!! Great Food.....thanks for all the Vegan options for me and my son. Thanks for the good meat options for my husband. Ran out of Brussel sprouts but it allowed us to try the Special Pizza and the Cucumbers....and our usual Guacamole!! (Love it but liked the old crackers that use to come with it). MOST OF ALL.....LOVE the service we get. ROBERT is a WONDERFUL Waiter. Thank you so much for having him......he is so attentive and knowledgeable.

    The village pub had a New Year day brunch with a prix fixe menu of 3 courses. For each part of the menu there were many choices. The dishes were excellent. The burrata salad was amazing with the most delicious and delicate burrata. This was a great lunch to begin the new year for a good price!

    We had the most delicious enjoyable Christmas day dinner. Each taste was amazing. We loved the guacamole, the posole with its complex broth, the barbacoa lamb, the caramel banana cake, the bunelo dessert and the special treat of corn pancakes brought to our table. Even the tempura tofu was good. I liked that they didn't ask us to tell them our choices for the second course until we finished the first ones. The pace was very good. Such a nice dinner experience and the fixe prix way of determining it by the cost of the entree was fair and very reasonable compared to other restaurant offerings for fixe prix for Christmas day.
