Wine was served correctly and the food was good but not special. Service was pleasant but very slow- over 2 hours for dinner but we're retired and had nothing better to do. I hear they do a great brunch. Maybe we'll try again on a Sunday.

Regular at this establishment. There is something for everyone! Business lunch, dinner out, drinks - never had a bad meal here! they do have a catering business, but if you haven't been to the restaurant, check it out!

Windmills does not seat people at a table, bring them cutlery, water and menu's and then move them to the bar unless of course they request such a move. I don't really believe this is a fair or in-good-faith review, it was a review of a supposed May 2012 visit and reviewed on April 6th, 2013, (11 months later) the... More

Most Sundays you can find my husband and me enjoying a delicious brunch with friends. Sometimes we split the eggs Benedict and cranberry raisin French toast (with maple syrup), sometimes I have the apple crepes or whole wheat toast with crunchy peanut butter and jam, and sometimes my husband has the ham and cheese crepes. If we're there during the... More

i do love this place- pricey but worth it- they put alot of thought into the menu- all healthy and delicious, and the servings are not huge which makes it even better- i don't like restaraunts that leave you uncomfortably full. fresh- healthy- lovely!
