    Great time at Garrison House. Food was excellent, no complaints about that! Kids and adults all enjoyed their meals and drinks. Service was meh, not great. It was hard to get refills, silverware, extra plates, etc.

    Food is good! Brunch music (singing solo guitarist) is a little loud. Service is slow. Someone in my party asked for decaf coffee and they didn’t have any. Kid-friendly restaurant with changing table in the bathroom. We love coming here. Good for groups.

    The food was wonderful. For the first time in a long time I received steak tips that were prepared to the requested doneness and were so flavorful that I did not need to add any seasoning. The services was impeccable and always with a smile.
