    Kathy checked us in - her greeting and smile makes you feel immediately at ‘home’. Crystal was our server this evening and she was fabulous! Our meals were fantastic - the Japanese tempura shrimp appetizer special was delicious! For dinner, I had the salmon special and my husband had the cioppino. The English sticky toffee pudding dessert is always on point! Thomas was the manager on duty tonight - he swung by our table to ensure we were having a great experience. Thank you Thomas! We love Region!

    Our first time at the Saddle Room and it was very very good!! The food was amazing and I like my steak well-done and it was still juicey and cooked perfectly!! Our waitress was fun, informational about wine, and personable. The atmosphere of the stone fireplace, low lighting, fun holiday music - perfect night out.
