Restaurants near Gardy's Millpond

A lovely experience. Macy, our server, was attentive, kind and helpful. This was a typically great experience for us and I was happy to introduce some visiting family members to The Front Porch!

As usual, tonight was a wonderful dining experience. The holiday decorations, the warmth of the fireplace, and the delicious food who could ask for more! But of course, you add our server, Gail, and you have a perfect night.

No one at the hostess station for our reservation. For a very long time. We went to front desk to ask for help. Reluctantly, this person came to station to tell me hostess is seating someone else. Which was not true as we had been standing there for about 7 minutes and never saw any customers or hostess. Desk woman inquired from bartender who had one customer and saw us standing there the whole time as to where hostess was. He didn't know where hostess was. She suggested he find out. Eventually, hostess showed up and helped the larger group of PEOPLE BEHIND US who had just arrived! I told her we had been standing there for ten minutes and the WE were next! Phone rang. She answered the phone and discussed a reservation with the person on the phone. We continued to wait! Eventually, she settled on reservation with phone call and seated us. NO APOLOGY or acknowledgement in any way.

We love going to LA Vela, the food is always fantastic and the service Is great.

The food and experience were excellent! The ambiance was lovely, and the drinks had a great taste. Highly recommend!
