Review of The Dilworthtown Inn

Horrible! Like many others, we would return year ...

Horrible! Like many others, we would return year after year for birthdays, anniversaries, special occasions. Quality had been waning. Tonight was the last.

Our waiter reeked of cologne as did the kind gentleman who tended to our table between servings. I could barely smell my food with the offensive odors that lingered after every visit. The Tuna tartare came with 2.5 tiny, very tiny, pieces of toast. Not nearly enough. We were teased "Why? You'll ruin your appetite!" when asking for more. My Ceasar salad was "ok" but the croutons were horrid. I told the waiter, "The salad is good, but the croutons taste store-bought." His reply "Well, they are NOT". I've had many many Ceasar salads and croutons homemade, at the best restaurants and the not-so-best over the years. These tasted like they came out of a box.

I asked for no pepper on any of my plates. The main course arrived. I had ordered the seared scallops - they were peppered. I ate two ... Between the unsavory croutons, the pepper and the odiferous cologne, I became sick. I spent way too much time in the bathroom while my date ate alone. yes, my husband celebrating his 73rd birthday sat by himself while his young wife got sick.

We're going to have to find a different restaurant.
