The food was seriously cooked to perfection! The atmosphere was very relaxed and friendly. The service was excellent! Great place to go for a first date! We will definitely be back!! Loved it! The peanut butter pie was amazing!

Excellent food!!!

Looking for fresh tasting food - go to FM Dons. Looking for a unique location to eat, meh - not so much.

Decent service off-season. It was nice to be able to sit outside, but really no atmosphere to speak of. Just sidewalk dining.

The true benefit of FM Dons is their food. Great job with all 3 sandwiches we had after a stroll through the Saturday morning farmers market in PG.

We reserved a room for a party and the person the party was for got sick. We decided not to cancel but scrambled to fill the reservation. Some of the guests were late. Instead if bringing out bread or appetizers to those of us there on time, we were ignored until everyone arrived. Even the drinks had to be chased down. We finally ordered and I asked for some bread for the table. The waiter said our party was late so they were behind. Rude.
When the food came it was delicious. My husband and I ordered separate appetizers and shared an entrée, no one said that was a $10 charge which was irritating. I asked again for bread. The waiter said oh sure, I will get you bread. We never got bread. When he came around for dessert I told him no. I was still upset with his rudeness and wasn't spending another penny there.
He came over and insisted that I get dessert, he would pay for it since he didn't bring bread. Ok.
He charged another party at the table for my dessert!
They are over-priced. No thank you.

We had a wonderful dinner and we took advantage of the Mon- Thurs dinner special- both salad and entree were great. But I have to say that this is the second time we have ordered the key lime pie, and found the same thing; the key lime filling has no lime in it. It was fresh but extremely bland and not tart and not lime. Both times we have been disappointed. Next time we will stick with chocolate as it was fresh and tastey!!!

Started with a server that acted like they could care less to be there. Basically just a food runner. Never checked on us or asked how the food was…nothing. Wife ordered the tenderloin that looked sous vide with no type of sear on it. Demi glacé way too salty. She couldn’t even finish it. I ordered the boulliabase which was actually pretty good. Once we finally saw our server we asked him for a box and the check. He looked totally bothered by us. Probably will not return. We are locals. The place was not busy at all.
