    Having really good food over comes a few short comings. I asked my server which soup I should order and he told me to get the crab soup. Well the clam chowder I had was pretty darn good, I just didn't say anything. I had the chopped salad which was excellent but before I finished it they brought my entree, and rather than take it back, my server said, oops it's a little early is that ok. Well I said fine and again the prime rib was outstanding. All told my dinner took 45 minutes, I'm just glad All of the food was so delicious.

    Loved tea at Lady Camellia! Food was fresh and tasty and was more than anyone could eat so we all got to take home pretty boxes with leftover treats. Great tea selection, lovely china, pretty view, great service, and absolutely amazing scones. Arrive early to try to find on-street parking, but if non is available there is a $15 lot between the tearoom and the river. A bit pricey for parking but worth the convenience.

    I brought out-of-town friends I hadn’t seen in a long time and wanted a memorable experience. We had the best food and terrific service! The Chef is excellent. We ordered mussels, small filet, pork chop, and gnocchi along with sides. Just delicious. Our servers, Brenna, Will, and Limburg were all attentive without being intrusive. We felt spoiled! What a terrific experience. Thank you.

Got the calamari and hot crab dip with pita which everyone enjoyed! Seafood was cooked on point and our group loved the house made pasta dishes as well! Definitely be back for more!!

    Along the river just a short walk from King St., this place is a gem. Food was fabulous. Ambiance was great. Artie was our server/bartender and he was fabulous. Putting this place on our list of stops when we return in the spring.
