I'm in town for the week and The Pond was a dinner choice for me and my closest 20 friends. Ha. Despite the large group, the staff was super gracious and took amazing care of us all. I tried the beignets as an appetizer, and they were warm & delicious. I chose the Chicken Parmesan and my co-worker tried the Grown Adult Chicken Fingers. The Chicken Parmesan was surprisingly good. The chicken was seasoned to be mild but the marinara sauce had a kick. Yum! My co-worker loved the hot honey glaze on the chicken tenders and couldn't stop with the rice pilaf. All in all, I don't think you can go wrong here.
We dined here over the weekend, Sunday afternoon. It was my first visit & I will definitely return. The atmosphere is very nice. I would not call it fine dining but I also would not dine here wearing sweatpants or athleisure/gym attire. It is a great spot for date night. The view is beautiful & the ambience is great. The restaurant is good for families & looks like it could also accommodate a large party. Parking is plentiful & free (always a pleasure). Our server, Kristen J, was very polite & insightful. We really appreciated her advice on menu items. Thanks, Kristen J! Now to the food... one of the main reasons people read restaurant reviews. Our table ordered the oxtails (the special for the day), lamb chops, & spicy cajun pasta. Everyone enjoyed their meal. The oxtails were HUGE!!! & from what I sampled, delicious! For $28, that was a great deal! They came with a side of mashed potatoes & 2 biscuits. My family member also ordered a side of collard greens and macaroni and cheese. They said the macaroni & cheese was good. The greens, not so much. The spicy cajun pasta looked good & my family member enjoyed them. The lamb chops were seasoned wonderfully. They were almost tender enough to cut with a butter knife, because they do not provide a steak knife (I'm sure you can get one if you ask), and I made do. You get 4 nice sized lollipop chops for $51 (with 2 signature sides). The only issue was the temperature. I asked for them to be cooked medium rare & only one came out that way. The other 3 were medium well. I didn't want to send them back because I was hungry & had already started in on them but I did mention it to our server, Kristen J. For $51, they should all have been cooked to order! I have no issue paying top dollar for great food but I think they were overpriced, even though they had a good taste to them. Overall, I would return but I will not be ordering the lamb chops again. Maybe the oxtails, if they are still on the menu.
Wednesday night dinner on friends recommendation. It was very good and exceeds the 3.5 rating. I started with the grapefruit rose, it is good for those that like a sweet rose it was a tad sweet for me. I had a glass of pinot noir after and that was very smooth. I had the lamb chops with a side of cheese grits and broccoli. The pork chops were great, I asked for medium and they were cooked that way. The chops were seasoned nicely and came with a side of mint jelly that gave that savory sweet mix. The cheese grits had a good flavor, the only critique was they could have been a bit thicker and creamier. No complaints on the broccoli. The service was outstanding, our server worked hard and was super pleasant. She had no issue with splitting a check with a party of 8. Good experience.
Beautiful place, great food and great views. I love the outdoor area and at night the spot was so peaceful and quiet. We also had good drinks and the service was fast and very friendly even at the late hour we got there. I would go back, but I would say they may want to work on the big control just a little
I recently dined there again as the guest of a friend. The food was delicious and served by our server with expertise needed in an upscale restaurant. The six of us were at table 15, and he was on top of our every need and request. This was a feat in that he was taking care of several tables at once. The food was delicious, but pricey. His service made the dining experience worth the price.
