Came for first time last Sunday for brunch. Not what i expected. I enjoyed the decor of bottles along the walls. The food was great, I had the Eggs Benedict, it is what i usually will order to see what the restaurant is made of. Again, the service was prompt, didn't have to ask for anything. That's the way it... More

Had a late Saturday morning meal here on a Saturday. Very welcoming staff that even held a table for us outside on the sidewalk while we decided where to eat. You get the feeling that evereyone there is "like family".Menu has a nice variety of dining options. Food quality was very good. Drinks were refilled well before they were empty.... More

I've been to the Gathering on numerous occassions and have enjoyed myself thoroughly. The food is first class no matter what time you go. At night, my guests and I have been entertained by the owner who is a pretty impressive magician. Dinner are superb but for a great brunch, go on Sunday morning and order the Eggs Sardou. Delicious!... More

You walk in and you feel at home in the Gathering Bar and Grill. The bar is often full with people eating and drinking. A lot of discussion among locals and new diners make it a fun place to eat and drink. Roaming magicians add some interest to your experience. The weekends often have a guitarist singing and playing while... More

I had lunch with a friend in this pleasant restaurant. Service was impeccable - friendly without being pushy. My friend had the Goldfinch Burger, which I was relieved to see was not in fact made from goldfinches (you'd need an awful to lot make a burger.......). I had the seafood crepes, which were absolutely delicious - probably the most shrimpy-tasting... More

This is the third time we have visited the Gathering, all for breakfast. We like the look and feel of this restaurant. It is inviting inside, with the artwork on the walls, and colorful decor. Staff are friendly and efficient. The food at breakfast is pretty darn good, and very filling. Each plate we ordered is really enough for two... More

Great service, good food. It is right near a fire station and every time a fire engine goes through the intersection with its siren blaring, all drinks are 1/2 price. Be alert so you don't miss out!

For the convenience I wanted the Gathering to be a great restaurant because I lived 2 blocks away. But alas, it's one of those restaurants where you'll find dirty utencils and dishes and mediocre quality grub.
