Willow Restaurant
A Refreshing Lunchtime Treat
Looks like Ballston's five-star restaurant lives up to its reputation. Lunch at 
Willow Restaurant [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=q5beuhcab&et=1103684029300&s=1074&e=001ecg3o4cQS83y3_oRtWvfsfiyWqLsz8VEiUVFEmA94u4ebQ1FksY9dhVLEJOzE1wYG6JA6QEiRZS8rTgWMA0gDG8jFfuMfXAYOREGOnWdySsgyVhS44b0Og==]
was a refreshing treat.
As soon as we walked onto the crowded patio, (yes, crowded at 1:00 in the afternoon!)
we were met with a courteous "Hi how are you? Inside or out?"  On a surprisingly
 hot, 90-degree September afternoon, we opted to sit inside the air-conditioned 
dining room.
After a couple minutes to decompress  and  look over the menu,  our helpful server
arrived. As he took our orders, I couldn't help but notice how perfect this place
is for a leisurely meal. A beautiful dining space with a nice, courtyard view.
But as pretty as a restaurant is, you don't necessarily go there for the view, you
know. You go there for the food. So, good thing Willow's lunch menu corresponds 
with the ambiance--just perfect.
But, as wonderful as our meals were, what truly stands out is the customer service.
As I took my last bite of a delectable turkey club, the dish was  quickly taken 
away before I had to a chance to look at a dirty plate. Nice touch. And what was
 even nicer was the attention paid to our satisfaction at the end of the meal. We
wanted something sweet, but not too sugary.  Our very accommodating server soon 
returned with cups brimming full of fresh blueberries, even though they were not
 on the menu.
So, does Willow live up to the hype? Yep. You bet it does.
Next month, we'll review Grand Cru Wine Bar & Euro Cafe [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=q5beuhcab&et=1103684029300&s=1074&e=001ecg3o4cQS80PUu8FHkmoYpyAN4gfMALd2o9LtjC5tyreTcXSYURpwKXbhHNICXHNWkled8w5SzJ-rAQrZf9okKNzT6Ci3Fjd_ixAi_YTFGfVCb7OXOZeVQ==].
Can't wait!
Have any local restaurants in the Ballston area you would like us to review? Let
 us know. We'd love to hear your suggestions!
