Elegant Dining, Sou. Pines

A small, elegant downtown restaurant serving SCRUMPTIOUS meals. Take someone special--it's a little pricey--linger over your rolls and butter, wines and desserts and coffees. Relax into the Old World sense of slow dining.

The server, Arlon, does not announce, "Good evening, I'm Arlon; I'll be serving you this evening." One, we don't care what the server's name is until we've enjoyed our dinner. Two, anybody with a grain of sense can see who's the server. Later, we chatted with him and found him to be whitty, well-informed and a lovely mix of formal and informal.

Chef Scott Wolcott came out to check on us, was gracious, modest and very pleasant. His dishes are elegant, understated and simply delicious.

Arlon helped us select a wine and advised us on the cheesecake. If you get him started, he also tells silly jokes.

See the website for menu details, hours of operation. Then treat yourselves to Wolcott's!
