**Dining at Heron: An Enigmatic Experience** Heron dazzles with its stunning ambiance and exquisite presentation, creating an Instagram-worthy dining experience. Yet, guests often find the service inconsistent, with delays in orders and attention. While some rave about delightful flavors and attentive staff, others lament overly creamy, one-dimensional dishes that fall short of their visual allure. Notably, the brunch offers an excellent morning affair, though some coffee selections may disappoint. Overall, while Heron captivates with its aesthetic charm and potential for exceptional cuisine, the experience remains a mixed bag—leaving diners craving the depth of flavor to match the culinary artistry.

Was Alvera Hermiston at Herons a mag?
At Top Notch Square, everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. The steak was outstanding, and the smoked sturgeon paired with fish was delightful. The salmon was quite tasty as well, although the Caesar salad was just okay. However, the carrot cake was really good! View all feedback.

What Arvilla Stracke dislikes about Herons:
The Umstead boasted an elevated high tea with harpist and exceptional pastries. That was not our experience. They have only 3 tables dedicated to high tea and the harpist sits off to the side and takes lots of breaks. The sandwiches seemed pre-made on stale bread and the desserts were winter inspired when it was the height of spring (late May). Where were the local strawberries? Coffee flavored macarons with tea? Bet... View all feedback.

To be honest atmosphere is excellent! I was speechless, the presentation of dishes spectacular!I think biggest area they should work is customer service! Starting with a host. She assumed that I am a Mrs of person I was attending dinner, however gentleman was my business partner ! This is highly unprofessional to make assumptions that I am a wife of a person I am coming with for a dinner!!!! That irritates and have unpleasant experience because they put you in very uncomfortable situation!!!! And number two server’s definitely had knowledge about food but they were standing over our shoulders and looking from corner if we finished our meal! I constantly see minimum 5 servers sneaking on us from the corner!!! I felt that I was out under microscope and that someone always looking at us!this makes you very uncomfortable.they rush you to eat and try to attempt take plates from you when you haven’t even finished! So unprofessional! Also if they are so highly trained they should know by placement of table silverware if I completed my meal or not! Four times they tried to grab a plate before I even finished it . Again as I said amazing food, quality of food and atmosphere but customer service should be improved

The Crab Benedict was delicious. The hollandaise sauce really enhanced and married all of the different flavors in this dish together. The crunchy softness of the tomato was also something I’ve never experienced before. We tried out some of the desserts from the brunch menu. My favorite had to be the layered cake. It reminded me of the essence of birthday cake without the over sweetness from the frosting. A delectable bite that had me reaching for more. The staff provided outstanding service from the moment we walked in, with warm greetings and attentive care throughout the meal. Every detail, from timely refills to thoughtful menu recommendations, made the brunch experience truly memorable. I am already excited to try out their lunch and dinner menus.

We came here to celebrate our anniversary, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. This James Beard Award-winning restaurant truly lives up to its reputation — every dish was a work of art, full of flavor and beautifully presented. Our waitress, Abbie, made the day even more special. She was warm, attentive, and incredibly thoughtful. Her recommendations were spot on, and she paid attention to every detail, making sure our experience felt personalized and seamless from start to finish. It was the kind of experience you remember — elegant, flavorful, and full of heart. We’re so glad we chose this place to celebrate. We’ll definitely be back!
