    We had a top notch experience at Green Briar. Our server was attentive and friendly, service was great - never an empty coffee cup! We had two young children with us and the server was so helpful in getting them the food they liked. All of our brunch entrees were excellent!

    Perfect Anniversary dinner. Every member of the staff; from the Maitre’D to the bartender, to our waiters took the time to welcome us & acknowledge the occasion. We chose to sit by the roaring fire in the Bar, on a wet & misty evening. Lovely escargot & beet salad followed by Halibut for my bride, and Duck Breast for me, flawlessly cooked as required. Wide selection of wines by the glass for our varied tastes (Pinot Noir for me, Sauvignon Blanc for her). Ended with the “Chocolate Mousse Dome”; as outrageously over-the-top decadence that must be inhaled.

    The Greenbriar… will always be special to me. Elegant without being “exclusive”, classy without being “conceited”, delicious food, attentive service, the 4 of us all agreed it was a wonderful meal at a lovely restaurant! I requested the music be lowered as I wear hearing aids…they immediately adjusted it… we had such an enjoyable evening with our friends.

    We were celebrating Easter. We started in the bar, which is remarkably well stocked. Next we had brunch which was extraordinary. BUT the most impressive thing was the service! The servers were excellent, the manager came to chat with us. Service at a buffet is often less, the gentlemen who served is were the best part of our experience. I believe you can tell how sincere a restaurant is about customer service by how they deal with a problem. We had a MINOR issue, which they discovered and solved with grace.

    Great food but they definitely packed people in The staff was overloaded and service was very slow. Took for ever to get our champagne, get coffee and plates cleared. For the price I don’t think it was worth it.

    We had a beautiful meal at this charming restaurant - we had a large party and could all hear one another. The service was terrific and everyone loved their dinner. Perfect for a special occasion.

    This used to be my "go to" superior dining experience when I lived here. I returned since I moved back and it seems that they are just resting on their laurels. I had a $50 Halibut filet and it was average at best, very little flavor. I heard the same comments from most of the guests at our table. The seats in the main dining room were even uncomfortable with little/no padding, almost as bad as the metal outside chairs. Very sad indeed as it used to be top of the line for fine dining.

    Greg, Thank you for your feedback on the Halibut. Adjusting new items on our menu can only come from feedback from our guests, which we have made adjustments to make the Halibut more enjoyable. Also, please know we are having the chairs reupholstered, padded, and re-stained even at the time of your visit. We are constantly looking for ways to achieve excellence and meet expectations. We apologize that these weren't met during your visit.

    Great place to dine . We were there for a birthday brunch. The food is great and so was my Bloody Mary. A few of the tables seemed to be there for the same reason we were. But as always there is always a party that comes in and disrespects the surroundings. Everyone in the 8-10 party was so loud. We made the comment that it would be nice for them to get their meal so we could visit in quieter atmosphere. It did not help, they were still loud. The Greenbrier is a nice place to dine, but I think some people should try Mickey D’s. They don’t care how loud you are!
