“My husband and I went to Baxter’s to celebrate our anniversary recently. We really need to go there more often!!! Our entrees were excellently prepared, and we had a lovely bottle of wine as well. Our server, Destiny, was outstanding, and that would be an understatement! She was personable, professional, and there when needed, not hovering… when we go back, I definitely will request her! Also! We thought the price of our dinner and wine was very reasonable!“

“We love Bakery & Pickle! Our food is always outstanding, good service, and quality cocktails. We love their bartender Cullen. He makes the best drinks in town and will even create something unique based on our tastes. We had so much fun at the bar last night that we skipped our dinner reservations in the dining room and enjoyed our anniversary dinner at the bar. This place is always a good time with great staff, food, and atmosphere. Cullen keeps us coming back for his excellent cocktails!“

“The place got slammed as a result of some delayed flights. The crew on shift rolled up their sleeves and knocked out the orders with a smile. Ordered the southwest chicken wrap and was pleasantly surprised. The chicken was tender and flavorful, lettuce was crisp, and the cheese was, well cheesy. Great service, even when slammed. 5/5 would try again.“
