    Food was not what we expected. The last time we visited was much better. The fish and chips tasted like the had been frozen. Overall not the experience we had in the past.

    First time trying the Windmill Bistro today and it was SO good! Between my husband and I, we tried the Chicken Fried Steak, Butcher’s Omelet, Blueberry Pancakes, Brown Sugar Espresso Martini and Bloody Mary. Everything was delicious. So much flavor, great portions, reasonably priced. We 100% will be visiting again!

    Restaurant was quiet on a saturday evening. Waitress (Bryn) was friendly and attentive but not too attentive. Dinner was delicious. I had the risotto and my wife had the braised short ribs with stroganoff. We will definitely go there again.

    Can’t wait to come back this summer and see the patio and pond area come to life! Food was pretty good and we felt the prices were more fair than many other places we have been recently. We had made a reservation ( I suggest you do as well) and were glad we did! Even with the reservation we had to sit at the bar as the guests currently dinning at our table were in no rush to leave. Service at the bar was good but hectic due to the nature of the bar. Hopefully next time a table will be available! Looking forward to coming back for a lunch and or dinner as well!

    My mom and I love going here. I took her today to celebrate the life of a passed loved one, and tried a new menu item. It was the Red Beans and Rice burger. I’m not a vegetarian, so I do eat meat but the red beans caught my attention. I went ahead and ordered it and it tasted so much like the food from New Orleans. It took me to a happy place. Kudos to the chef and the rest of the staff there. Always feel warm and welcomed.
