Given Trotter's reputation and prices, a home run every time out is exactly what each customer expects. Given my experiences at Trotter's over the years, I'd say the customer pretty much gets that home run -- at the very worst, a standup triple. - Phil Vettel

This was one of the best meals of my life. The attention to personal detail was incredible; my boyfriend treated me to this delectable meal for my birthday, and I will forever compare every other meal to that night.
