Great restaurant, a couple of issues. First, I wanted to sample one of the soups before committing to it. They wouldn't let me do that, which I didn't understand..Most restaurants will give you a couple sips of a soup so you can see if you like it or not. I tried the soup I wasn't sure about and I was disappointed that I didnt order the other soup (butternut squash) which is normally my favorite. Not that I expect everything, but it was my birthday this day and they knew that. So why not let me try the soup first to make my dining experience spectacular? This brings me to my second issue. Two people mentioned my birthday and I specifically told not only the waiter but also the owner that I did not want them to sing happy birthday or bring the candle. Both apparently didnt listen to my request. While I appreciate the nice gesture, I dont celebrate my birthday the way others do and I would expect my wishes to be understood when I told TWO people not to do the singing thing. I will still come back because the food is good, but I will never tell them it is my birthday again and I will never try another soup other than their butternut squash soup, sadly.

It's definitely a hidden gem! I kept hearing about how amazing the food was, so we tried it, and it did not disappoint. I had the branzino, which was filed, and it was delicious! My husband had the chicken skewers, which he enjoyed. We shared the dessert special, which was a bananas foster bread pudding with a Nutella drizzle and scoop of vanilla ice cream. If you have the opportunity to try it, don't skip out. I look forward to going back and trying different dishes and desserts. It's also a BYO, which is so helpful on the wallet in this economy.

Love this restaurant. Great menu choices. My favorite is the lamb chops. My husband loves the salmon. No disappointments!
Jacquelyn
Delish! Always consistently good food. Nice presentation. Very accomodating with substituons due to dietary restrictions. Octopus one of best I have ever had. Server, Lenny was an attentive and very accommodating server. Third time there and just as good as before. Hidden neighbors gem!
Julie
Unfortunately not very good. The food was dry and overcooked. The waitress didn't know the menu

I have been to this restaurant several times and it never disappoints. The food is fresh and delicious. I tried their wild cod which was absolutely amazing! It was cooked perfectly and tasted exceptional. The staff is friendly and attentive.

Everyone enjoyed their dinner- salmon, cod, lamb shank. Service was very good, attentive. They noted the info I added to the reservation regarding dietary restriction- excellent! We will be going back soon!
Melissa
Nice ambiance(could use some fresh paint, but still cute inside), our waiter (I think Lenny?) was really friendly and good. The food was very good. Our table of 7 got butternut squash soup, ceviche, a few orders of the Special Lamb empanadas—those were wonderful!, hangar steak, pistachio goat cheese salad, & Lamb and chicken kofta. Everything was delicious! Highly recommend! (Cross posted)
Recent early dinner at Lemon Restuarant was outstanding in every way. Great menu options, terrific service and delicious food. Both entrees of New Zealand rack of lamb and Pappardelle (braised lamb short ribs) were very very good. The appetizer dish of octopus was the best we have ever had, it actually melted in your mouth it was cooked so expertly. Will definitely be back to try their many other entree's, and repeat on the octopus app.

Excellent food, value and atmosphere. The service was outstanding and the owner was involved throughout the evening. The staff was attentive and the owner was kind enough to send a complimentary appetizer and dessert to our table for sharing. We will definitely add Lemon to our top picks for local dining.

Wonderful experience. We went for a friend's birthday. The staff was friendly and readily made suggestions for entrees. The food was excellent. My whole party enjoyed everything. The crabcakes were fantastic. Usually, places make crab cakes with mostly breading and little bits of crab. I couldn't tell you if there was any bread in these at all. The flavor was wonderful and they left me feeling light and satisfied. I would highly recommend. The owner couldn't have been nicer and the atmosphere is friendly and welcoming. They allow you to take your time and enjoy your meal. Extra thanks for the complimentary strawberries and cream for my friend for her birthday. She enjoyed it and said it was the best meal out she has had in years.

Lemon Med's decor is cozy and inviting. The service is attentive, and the food is fresh and flavorful. The Lamb Shoulder is a standout dish – perfectly braised and delicious.
