Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Parkville

We ate in Cece's Kitchen this time. We've eaten in the main dining room many times. Wanted a more casual atmosphere. It was perfect, although booking was crazy. I originally booked the Kitchen at 6:15. When I went to change to 6:45, Open Table said no availability. When we checked in, they said they weren't sure they could seat us? When I pressed that we wanted to try the ambiance....we were the ONLY ones there. Plenty of seating. What gives? Service was excellent and perfect spot for salad, pizza, and a couple of drinks. Recommend it.

Food was excellent. Service was somewhat hit and miss and slow (long stretches with no server attention … e.g. empty drinks, slow dessert service … one dessert delivered and rest so long afterwards that the first one was already eaten ). Surprised to see an automatic gratuity on a table of 5 people. It may have been on the menu, I did t look close enough to say.

Ideal break from the day (or more) long task of preparing (and cleaning up) a traditional Thanksgiving meal. Everything you would expect was available, plus many other options for those not inclined or with dietary preferences. Staff were excellent. Well trained and experienced. My wife and I look forward to returning regularly. Just a wonderful experience!

Was not crowded or loud at all. Was a very enjoyable experience. Servers were very attentive and turned on the fireplace for us right when we arrived. The food was delicious and portions were worth the price.

The special Thanksgiving menu is always a treat each year. You can go traditional with turkey and all the fixings. Or go with the awesome crab cakes. It’s a win either way.
