"What a lovely experience last weekend...albeit last minute. We were hanging out with friends in Manchester and as we were getting ready to drive home, one of them made us a reservation at Jonathon 's Table. We had learned about this nestled behind the sugar shack farm to table restaurant last year and have been curious about it since. It wasn 't too busy for a Saturday night during mud season, so a reservation wasn 't necessary...but I 'm guessing that once the weather is better and more tourists are around, reservations will be recommended. The decor is country kitch and the lighting was low. Our server was super friendly and fun to talk to. The only glitches that we experienced were that the main courses took a rather long time to arrive and my salmon was a bit over cooked (I had ordered it rare). Still...the food was very good. We started by sharing the lobster ravioli appetizer. Uber rich with generous pieces of lobster inside each oversized ravioli. The complimentary bread is right up my alley...served warm/perfectly baked on a platter as a whole loaf. Sadly, I 'm a big bread fan. I could have eaten the whole thing and was offered another (which I declined...because....again...I would have/could have wolfed the whole thing down myself). The salads were very good crisp and fresh with just enough dressing. The prime rib received rave reviews and while my salmon was dry in the middle, it was still very tasty. I loved the accompanying wild rice served al dente with a light, nutty flavor. We ordered desserts to go: carrot cake and chocolate ganache cake. I worked on that ganache cake throughout the week; literally had a few small bites every night...it was super decadent. I tasted the carrot cake and it was delicious. Overall: very enjoyable."
