“We had our children’s baptism celebration at Cadence. We did a family style meal and everything was hot and delicious. The server made sure our guests always had a full beverage. The room was very spacious, we did not feel crowded. We were very pleased and we would definitely come back or host another event there! The event coordinator was also super communicative and easy to work with.”
“Very cozy. Reminds me of a log cabin! Love the waitress she was amazing. Food was good, overall it was a very fun experience!! Fairly priced but I like cheap stuff. Loved it if you want to bring your family together this is the place!”
“Wow what a treat! I have the organic chicken and it was absolutely delicious. It was so juicy and flavorful. My friend had the octopus and it was some of the best octopus I’ve had! They cooked it beautifully. It wasn’t rubbery at all. I was very impressed with how fast everything came out and just overall atmosphere. They had a new tables off to the side and I honestly appreciated them because I was just walking around and seeing who had availability for two, and I was glad that they had those new spots because they were able to just sit us right down. I’ve been before and enjoyed it, but this time was especially enjoyable! My friend had a mocktail. It was very tasty and the cocktails are always good. Will be back soon.”
“This restaurant was in an awesome location right across from the train station. The atmosphere was definitely relaxed and a plate was actually very large parking was a little bit of a pain, but you were able to park on the street after you drove around for a minute. The service was really great. I forgot our server’s name, but she was fantastic. She was on top of her game for sure because we sat at the table right by the bar. The people I was with had the filet mignon which was cooked perfectly the fish which he said was awesome and he gets it every time he goes there and I had a short rib which was delicious. It was so filling I couldn’t even finish it. The truffle fries were outstanding along with the meatballs, which were small, but we’re pretty good. I would definitely recommend this place. If you were in town the prices weren’t too bad, but definitely not cheap.”
“I had a really nice time at Cadence Kitchen & Co. The vibe is excellent and the drinks were really good. I was particularly impressed by the staff—they were very attentive and stayed on top of everything even as the restaurant got busy. For food, we started with the Buffalo shrimp and truffle fries, both of which were good. However, the main entrees were a bit hit-or-miss for us. The Salmon was cooked perfectly, but it had zero seasoning and required quite a bit of salt and pepper. The accompanying white salad was very fresh and tasty. Similarly, the Red Wine Braised Short Rib was tender and well-cooked, but it also lacked the seasoning we expected. Despite the seasoning issues— the great service and atmosphere make it worth a return visit. We’ll definitely be back.”
