    On what might have been their busiest night of the year, Cobalt was exceptional: the food, the service, and even the ambience (all the music impressive for its strip mall location)! Each course in the prix fixe was done with care and full of flavor. We particularly enjoyed the endive appetizer and the trout main course. And everything was made better by the perfect service provided by Maria: attentive without ever being overbearing,knowledgeable, personable. This was our first time at this restaurant and we are always prepared to offer grace on a night like Valentine’s Day;Cobalt needed none and far exceeded our expectations

    We dined at Walnut Grill on Valentines Day. We arrived for an early reservation and were seated quickly. Our drinks were great, and the service was fast and friendly. The food was very good also. The staff thanked us multiple times for choosing their restaurant for Valentines Day, and we thanked them all for working the holiday. I can't stress enough that everyone was friendly and working together on a day when we have received angry service resentment in Valentines dinners in the past. I would be remiss if I didn't mention the Brussels Sprouts. These were the star of the dinner courses!
