The relevance of these surveys is shown by the inclusion of Quivey’s Grove as the third best overall restaurant in the area. This restaurant has some of the most consistenly below average food I have ever tasted. It’s reputation must come from the “charm” of the old building. A truly mediocre place whose longevity is truly amazing.
I have eaten there three times and everytime the food was great and the service was great as well.
