I had a wonderful evening at Thyme restaurant. We were greeted with a warm welcome and received attentive service throughout our visit. The food was absolutely delicious, and I would highly recommend it. The atmosphere was delightful, and the staff made it even more special by providing a personalized birthday dessert. You can't go wrong by choosing to dine here!

Wow! I’m truly amazed at how John and his team manage to create such consistently exceptional food from such a small kitchen. They never disappoint. The food is absolutely fantastic, and the service is excellent. It can be difficult to get a reservation at times, but I have a feeling that even if they doubled the size of the restaurant, it would still be fully booked. I highly recommend it!

We dined here last night with a large group, and I was truly impressed with the Wagyu beef; it was cooked to perfection and incredibly tender. My pigeon was slightly overcooked, but still quite tasty (I won’t deduct any stars for that, considering how busy the restaurant was and that we were a large party). The chocolate fondant was absolutely divine. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere was fantastic. I would definitely choose to eat here again if I’m in the area. I also appreciated the listing of local produce suppliers on the menu—it’s a nice touch.
