    We had a great experience. The cocktails and beers we chose were outstanding. Everyone enjoyed the food, and there were also plenty of vegan options for the vegan in the party. Highly recommend you get the sweet potato fries. The person who ordered them had to share with our whole table. Will definitely go back again!

    I stay at the Junto often, and usually have dinner at the Little West Tavern at least once each stay. I always enjoy it. LWT has made some changes to its menus, revising some of its “classics” and adding a few more options to choose from. One of these new options is a Rainbow Trout with a charred broccoli and pecan side accompanying vegetable. It is excellent, and I highly recommend it. LWT also has a nice ambiance “vibe.” It is a welcoming and comfortable space, with lots of nice wood, a number of brick-faced walls, and an open wood-flame grill, . . . and in nice weather, an L-shaped outdoor covered patio tracing the outside walls of the interior of the restaurant (one of which walls opens up, garage-door style, to blend the indoor with the patio when the weather favors it). It is always a nice experience dining at LWT. Yes, it is a bit on the expensive side, but it is one of those places that always offers a memorable, pleasant, and welcoming dining experience.
