THE GET DOWN
The food is good but the back-drop is even better. The Raymond is a little quaint cottage with a fountain and a patio that’s enclosed “enough” for the runners and open enough for the screamers.
The vibe overall is cozy and soothing. It’s perfect for a quiet little catchup anytime. The service is great and the management creates the kind of experience that makes you want to visit again.
I’ve only been for lunch and each time we had salads. The menu is a casual mix of European and American and the food is pretty darn good.

For those with little
runners & screamers:
Easily forgiven:
Here, you can forget the fact that it’s your rambunctious child that’s screaming and STILL enjoy most of your meal.
Not promoted, but you should take the chance:
If your toddler is at the stage when an iPad or some other colorful distraction can be used for an un-interrupted 20 minutes, then go for it.
Uh-uh, NO WAY, don’t even think about it!:
I don’t care how cute your toddler is. Pop your head in… turn around… walk away. PERIOD.
No contained area:
A place you cannot leave your toddler alone, not even for a second.
Enclosed, but space is tight:
If YOU can’t fit between the tables then you know you couldn’t catch your toddler if they tried – this isn’t Norm’s.
