Another place that gave an initial bad impression. As the hostess led us to our table, we had to pass a waitress who was picking up plates from a table. As I walked by, she brought back an elbow and caught my hip, nearly dropping her plates. I immediately apologized for politeness sake, expecting something similar in return… instead, she simply glowered at me and turned away. Not a good sign, although in fairness, the rest of the staff seemed acceptably pleasant.

Our appetizer was a plate of crab-stuffed mushroom caps. I thought the melted cheese atop each ‘shroom was too much, and detracted from the delicate stuffing… but it was tasty all the same.

My meal was a broiled seafood platter, featuring a light breadcrumb crust over haddock, shrimp, and sea scallops in a lemon-butter sauce. The result was a pleasant, filling dinner that fell well-short of exciting.

NOTE: My better half urges me to mention the Jack Frost, a frozen Lynchburg Lemonade that she had at Tweed’s. She loved every sip, and recommends it highly.

Overall, I’d say give Tweed’s a try. Not exactly recommended, but good enough to pass in a pinch.
