The James Buchanan Restaurant offers a unique dining experience with a cozy and historical atmosphere. The restaurant has a gas fireplace, making it an ideal spot for a date night. The service is generally commendable, with servers like Monica known for their attentiveness.
The menu presents a variety of appealing dishes. However, there have been inconsistencies in food delivery. For instance, the seafood risotto and Mercersburg Linguini were not as described on the menu during one visit, with the risotto lacking in variety and seasoning and the linguini missing key ingredients. Similarly, the vegetable of the day and asparagus were found to be unexciting.
On a positive note, the potato sides, salmon, and certain pasta dishes have received positive feedback. With more attention to detail, the restaurant could elevate its dining experience. Despite these inconsistencies, the restaurant maintains a clean, charming ambiance that keeps customers returning.
