I had my waffle and a glass of OJ. Pal C said I was wrong in drinking the big glass of orange which I enjoyed. I'm getting to feel like I don't want to sit with her. I do enjoy Diane Heller. NO NO NO to Ester Wright-that lady is discussting (sp) to Hilary

My 8-person table (Table #2 I think) was positioned directly under the huge air-conditioner vent. We were chilled, especially the ladies in our group. Please do not seat my dinner /brunch group at that location ever again. Otherwise, everyone had a most pleasant experience on that occasion. Service and food was very good.

That strange stacked up salad was out of this world tasty. We also liked the fried ribs. Dessert was good too. Nothing to report except food was great and the service as always was unprecedented. Yolanda and crew were should be given high marks in performance. Not very many places either where you see the boss out there serving folks. Thanks JMack and crew. Jack and Judy

The pork egg rolls and pork dumpling appetizer was absolutely superb, and the unusual cole slaw perfectly complemented both them and the BBQ Mini Pork Shanks. This was a great meal!

My reservation didn't make it into the Maitre d's chart, but was later confirmed. Service was passable, but I had to make several requests to get things right - there was not much initiative shown by the wait staff. Food quality was good, but not great. Portion size of the special veggie omelette was adequate - perhaps a bit heavy on the spinach and all the filling was at one end of the dish with a rather large "tail" with no filling. The price/value is likely affected by the venue which is very nice, but I would opt for better food with less ambiance.

Wait Staff continues to perform in a superb manner. Tables are much better with the lack of place mats and addition of the trays. It's great to be able to sit down for a meal fully prepared. The variety of options is above other such facilities. Food taste and presentation continues to score high marks. REQUEST: We would love having the kitchen open for breakfast and the Sky Lounge open for drinks. Both could be done under current Covid-19 he. THANKS FOR YOUR SERVICE.

I certainly enjoyed my first visit to Cochran's, but it would've been a lot better had there been more residents there to interact with; i.e. other than the couple finishing ip their lunch when I arrived, there was only two other guests. Being new to Blueskies East (first month) I went hoping meet others. Still, I enjoyed conversing with Althea and even ended up sitting across from each other maintaining correct social distancing. Oh well, next time. Richard
