    My wife didn’t want a big spectacle on her 60th birthday, so we decided to have a quiet lunch at Rooftop. She ordered a salad topped with a grilled salmon. I had the sea bass with risotto, and my daughter had the spicy rigatoni with chicken. We also ordered the shrimp tacos (4 tacos). All of the dishes we ordered were delicious. The grilled salmon that came with the salad was cooked just right. The sea bass was as good as and the melted cheese in the risotto was just right and not overpowering the overall flavor of the dish. And my daughter had no complaints on the rigatoni as she cleaned up her plate. And saving the best for last was the shrimp tacos. The shrimp tasted so delicious and fresh that I wished we had more, but with all the food we had, the shrimp tacos outshined them all. And not to forget our server, (I forgot his name God bless his soul) he was very sweet and personable, with a happy demeanor. Hope they pay him well because he was very attentive to our needs. Overall, my wife’s birthday celebration, even though it wasn’t elaborate, it was a very nice experience and we will definitely will come back if we’re in the area. I highly recommend this restaurant.

    My wife and I really enjoyed our dinner. We are long-time vegans and it's wonderful to know there is an excellent vegan restaurant within an hour's drive. In addition to great food, the service was professional, friendly and attentive. The wine list is thoughtfully curated. And... vegan chocolate dessert was delicious.

    My husband and I had a great experience at Forbes Mill Steakhouse in Danville. Our waitress was exceptional and her name was Amy and she definitely added to our wonderful evening. We had the Filet, one Oscar Style and one with Scampi. Both outstanding. We also enjoyed our Lava Cake desert. Wonderful evening for us as we don't splurge often.
