Restaurants near Kernwood Golf Course

I eat out at least 2 or 3 times a week. Pellana stands out for several reasons. From the minute you walk in the staff is friendly, and relaxed. They obviously want you to have a good experience. The setting is definitely upscale . Although I have seen people in casual clothes, I feel like it's a place that warrants a little "dressing up". This is just my opinion, not theirs. I ordered a glass of wine. I had ordered that same wine at another restaurant recently. Although the price per glass was the same, Pellana had a much more generous pour. For lunch, I ordered a steak tenderloin , medium rare, on a bed of lettuce and tomato and balsamic. It came exactly as ordered. It is a perfect meal especially for those who want to avoid carbs. We did not order dessert but we ordered a coffee and a tea. Both of these came in small pots and were perfect.

My group of 4 had a reservation for a birthday dinner at 7:15. The hostess was very apologetic when they could not seat us right away as a previous table was not leaving. We ended up having to wait for our table for 35 minutes. In the mean time we got a drink at the bar. Everyone from the hostess to the wait staff to the sommelier was very apologetic but we didn't mind. Everyone more than made up for our wait with complementary appetizer and a drink. Our birthday celebration was great and all of the food and drink was phenomenal. The sommelier Scott spent extra time with us when we had questions about the wine and was very kind and informative! We will be returning soon!

Went with 3 friends on a Friday night at 7pm for a birthday dinner. The atmosphere was perfect! Cozy and festive, holiday music playing at an enjoyable decibel. We were treated with a round of limoncello because we were celebrating a birthday. The food was delicious, the service was excellent. It was a busy night but we were never rushed and allowed to take our time. 10/10.

I love their Chopped salad, Nonna's sauce, Chicken Piccata BUT, today I ordered their Pork Chop and was seriously disappointed. I might as well have ordered a bowl of Rosemary Spice because that's the only flavor you get with every bite. Totally overspiced, you don't even taste anything else. The waiter comped us the Cannoli, which was nice, but to pay $44 for a pork chop I couldn't stomach was , as I said, disappointing.

This was a very special birthday celebration and Finz was the perfect choice for it!
