Our Service:  There is nothing like having a co-owners wife come greet us at the table and strike up some conversation.  Not only was she super sweet, but she also sent over their signature rosemary honey panna cotta for us to try.  Having that personalized appreciation for our visit was so refreshing and it felt good to be eating local.  In addition to that, our server was extremely patient with us while we took our merry old time deciding which dishes (and lots of accompanying spirits) to order.  The restaurant wasn't overly crowded and I felt as though our personal table had plenty of space to spread ourselves out without feeling like we could easily eavesdrop on the conversation at the next table.


Extra love:  The furnishings, artwork and colors Northeast Social chose for their restaurant were perfectly fitting.  I almost drooled over their navy paint colors and the brilliant painting at the front of the restaurant.  I think it's safe to say that Northeast Social may be my new Nordeast fave.  LOVE!
