    The braised beef short rib w/black truffle grits and greens was AMAZING! Not overpowered with truffle, just a nice flavor to raise the bar. Portion was huge. Starter of crispy Brussels sprouts w/honey, goat cheese, supurb. She crab soup can tend to be salty, but tonight was right on with a decent amount of crab. Dessert was divine of a cardamom panna cotta w/an apple filling. Very light, nice, and smooth texture similar to what I experience in Italy, but plated to raise the experience. Can’t go wrong at Soby’s! Jackie was a great server and had our meal nicely spread out and never felt rushed or wondering if next course was forgotten! Thanks for working Thanksgiving all!

    We always enjoy dining with Larkin’s. Very nice ambiance, well trained, attentive staff, good menu and wine choices. Kolby was our server on this occasion and was a very nice young man who took the occasion of a slow evening to chat a bit which is always nice. The French onion soup is just the best ever and our salmon was cooked to perfection as we ordered. Good, French Press coffee and just an enjoyable, relaxing evening before attending a show at the nearby Peace Center.
