Tried for the first time. Horrible food. Really wish I had ordered from Cheesecake Factory instead.
The Caesar Salad was JUST cheese shavings on lettuce. The dressing was worse than something off the shelf.
The meat spaghetti was at least flavorful. The linguini was bland.

Recommended dishes: Linguini Bolognese

Wow!!! What a gem! I had the lamb and it was 10000% worth every bite! Thank you to the chef and the staff for being incredible and loving the craft that is food!

Slow night inside, service was excellent and snappy. Food was.. average. Ordered the Julia Child's Beef Bourguignon. I was just looking for a tasty dinner - unfortunately this was not prepared according to her recipe, nor anyone else's for that matter.
Where was the bacon? Where were the mushrooms? The onions?
Overall this tasted like it came out of cans.

A casual vibe with elevated food, cocktails and wine choices. Service is warm and inviting. Highly recommend the provolone fondue starter, Julia child's beef bourguignon and the diablo shrimp dish. We did not have dessert this time. We tried an espresso martini and prickly pear margarita both are delicious.

The Little Pear is a good place to get healthy food. It still has the feel of The Counter (its predecessor at that location) but with some upgraded signage.There are quite a few vegetarian options and there are pears added to unlikely dishes (pears on a flatbread pizza?), but we tried them and they are good. The pear cobbler dessert was delicious.

Another great restaurant from Rodney! I'm glad I don't have to drive to Danville for the grand meir sandwich or pear Quesadilla! Oh, and the Jack Daniel's slushy the best slurpee I've ever had ! It fills up fast so go early or late! Great place!

Parking: There is a parking garage behind the restaurant either free 2 hour parking or meters.

We ordered two medium-rare burgers that listed first on the menu. These were amazingly juicy. The portions are big, requiring a hearty appetite or some effort to eat all. I managed to stuff mine in just because the burgers were exceptionally tasty, and greed took over :)

We have been trying to get down here for a long time and finally managed to do it today. We had checked first to ensure that they had outdoor seating so our puppy would be well taken care of. Staff greeted us outside, got water for the dog. Made sure we had what we needed but we had failed to check to see when the regular menu would kick in. Brunch runs 10 to 1 on weekends and starting at 11:00 the regular menu kicks in. They were willing to prepare us French onion soup while we sat outside which was absolutely beyond delicious. Not iver cooked. Not over salted and then I had the filet black and blue salad and my husband had the grand mare sandwich. Everything was absolutely perfect and we couldn't have been happier. We will definitely be back and we definitely recommend everyone try this

Food was really well done, we had the Chicken Parm. Really couldn't ask for more. Over all very nice, but can get a little loud when busy, and service a little slow.
