Dogwood Terrance, May 2011
The other week DH and I wound up at the Dogwood Terrace Restaurant in
Acworth. We saw 2 other restaurants that looked good as drove by, but
they were closed for private parties. Service was slow to start out; it
took about 10 minutes to get our drink orders taken. It remained a
little slow but attentive throughout the rest of the meal.
DH enjoyed a house Merlot, and I had a nice Riesling. Wine prices were
about $2 higher per glass than we thought they should have been. For an
appetizer, we had the vegetable spring rolls with 3 dipping sauces-soy,
ponzu and
spicy chili sauce. It was a good but not outstanding. DH opted for a
dinner salad with a crab cake. He said it was good. I had the Pasta
Primavera, linguini served with loads of veggies in a
garlicky creamy sauce. It was heavy, creamy, and delicious. It was heavy
for the summer, but it was one of the best pastas with cream sauce I've
had in the last year. The accompanying salad was average. We were both
full, so we did not have dessert.
Parking is readily available in the lot behind the restaurant and the
surrounding streets. The restaurant is lovely with a lot of woodwork and
stacked stone fireplaces.
Pros: Food food, reasonable prices
Cons: Service can be slow, prices are a bit high
