    The 44.00 charges per person were reasonable enough however unaware of the tipping protocol I checked with front desk and was told 20% is the norm. Now while our server was attentive all he brought the table was coffee and 1 drink each for the 2 of us.also some utensils.I understand all about tipping however was the 20% within reason or would 10.00 been ok?

    We come to Mendenhall Inn for special occasions and have never been disappointed. This was my 82nd birthday, just my wife and I attending. We started with Blue Point oysters. My wife had the stuffed lobster tail and I had the Queen size prime rib. Both were excellent. Cheesecake and espresso for dessert. Everything was well worth the price, including the ambiance.

    My husband and I began our anniversary dinner with the beet salad and shared this course. We both enjoyed the pistachios, blood oranges, beets, feta and this salad in entirety. Then I had the beef stroganoff, which was incredibly tasty and my husband had the beef short ribs. And we agreed that this was the tastiest dinner. Our server could not have been more timely at each phase of dinner. We had made a 5:00 reservation and this was perfect, as it was quiet for our entire meal and then when we departed the restaurant had gotten busier. I highly recommend Mendenhall Inn for a special occasion, And also, the meals were nicely priced.

    Another wonderful meal at Mendenhall Inn - this time for a birthday dinner (we usually have Sunday Brunch). Service was outstanding - (Andy is the best!), and food was delicious - I liked everything on the menu! We'll be back soon for brunch; but dinner is just as outstanding! Really nice evening.

    Mendenhall Inn is wonderful place for leisurely dining. It is not that expensive for the quality of their dishes and the whole dining experience, very elegant. My husband loves their snapper soup; he says it’s the best in the region. The salads were exceptional and our dinners, as well. We had the salmon, crab cake and filet mignon. Our waitress was attentive.
