Reviews and More

Here you will find opinion pieces about local restaurants, businesses and more by yours truly. These reviews are just that, my opinion. I am not being paid for these with money or free product.

NEW:

At Moss and Ink local, we celebrate the beauty of nature, local beauty and creativity, and our new Fern Leaf Rating System reflects that spirit! Inspired by the lush, eight-leafed fern in our logo, we rate local events, restaurants, businesses and more on a scale of 1 to 8 fern leaves. Each leaf represents a step toward perfection – from a single sprout in need of sunlight to a radiant, thriving fern in full bloom. Whether it’s a cozy spot for lunch or an event in town, our fern leaves capture how much it makes our hearts grow. Explore our reviews and see how many leaves your favorites earn! Leaf example pictured below. The real ‘Rating Leaf’ will have the number written in red, inside the leaf.
