Kimball House

First, make sure you make a reservation. We had a reservation and so seating on a Friday night was seamless. Our servers were very knowledgeable and gave great recommendations. We started with the Hawaiian roll, salt and pepper shrimp and some oysters. The Hawaiian roll was the perfectly fluffy with a hints of salt and the butter and strawberry on top made it ethereal.
