The exterior wall on the Plymouth Street side is also all windows, so the whole place is very bright. Wide-plank wood floors and dark wood beams on lighter wood ceiling provide a great atmosphere, along with a fieldstone gas fireplace, and the face of the bar is fieldstone as well. Compared to the tired, dingy atmosphere of the old Lakeview, the transformation is stunning.
The menu is extensive with a lot of great sounding choices. I had the Caesar salad with grilled chicken, which was excellent. The boss had the clam chowder, (only comes in a bowl, not a cup), which was also very good, (a tad salty and not a thick as I would prefer, but still very good)
The only nit-picky thing is that it was very loud, and the place was not full. Definitely a great addition to the town's restaurant scene.

My wife and I went the first weekend it opened. It was warm enough that they had the garage doors open, but we sat at the bar with our jackets on. The food and service were great, and the place looked amazing. I foresee a tough time getting a seat at the bar on a beautiful summer night.
It was noisy but also very busy that night.
I wasn't that impressed with the Glendale Breeze.
