Willow

Willow Restaurant Review:

There are several concepts at play at Willow --- gourmet market, restaurant, wine bar --- and they all work, though sometimes the table service can be a bit scattered. The restaurant offers seating indoors and outdoors on the expansive patio, and the well-thought-out menu offers a mix of options. All the basics such as breakfast omelets, burgers, pizzas and deli sandwiches are covered, but you can also order dishes like pulled pork and tater tot poutine, a rib-eye with chimichurri, and braised short rib mac ‘n’ cheese that’s further nudged with wild mushrooms and blue cheese. Desserts usually include cupcakes or ice cream topped with seasonal fruit. There’s a good selection of local wines, including a few on tap, and draft and bottled beers.
