My husband and I sat in the bar area for our dinner (our choice). We were greeted immediately with a smile and Hello. We ordered the scallops wrapped in bacon for an appetizer which we shared. They were delicious. I just had a burger and fries and my husband had the chicken Caesar salad. The room was nice and lit nicely for dinner. I also had the lemon drop martini which was excellent. My burger came out just the way I like it and my husband enjoyed his salad. Overall a very pleasant experience.

Good food

Good restaurant, but they need to update decor. Very 90's over in bar and fireplace pit area. The menu could use a little update as well.

Went to go to dinner tonight been going here for years and will never go back. The man playing hostesses was rude laughing when I said 2 please he said do you have a reservation I said no he said you can sit a the bar if there is room. The place was empty. I ask how long of wait then he laughed again. Never will we be going back.

I was excited to see Prime Rib on the menu. Unfortunately it was the worst piece of meat I’ve ever had in a restaurant.It came to the table and looked grey like it hadn’t been seared. It was tough and chewy which is not what I expect from a $40+ steak. I asked them to take it away and sear it, was barely any better. I left most of it.My wife had a haddock with crab meat dish and said it was tasteless. Very very poor overall for the money. We won’t be returning.

Beautiful place. We went on Valentine's Day. Got stuck in somewhat of a corner near a door so it was a bit chilly but otherwise everything was good.

Went on a Saturday night and sat at a table in lounge area. The baked haddock came out cold and under cooked so the server replaced it with another one. My burger came out well done, no pink at all instead of medium like I asked for it, but I ate it anyways. Tonight, sat in lounge again, same server. My burger was gray, had a weird texture and tasted funny, so I sent it back and did not replace. My husbands tenderloin tips were dried out and cold and not edible. Our server was vert nice on both occasions, and its not her fault. We gave her a generous tip both nights, but I'm sure some people with not tip her or tip her less. The management here should really take a look at who they have cooking and the quality and bad food leaving the kitchen because what they are sending out of the kitchen could cause people to get very sick. And, again, the server is the one who needs to deal with it and it is unfair to them.

Horrible service at the bar. If you feel like waiting 10 minutes or longer to make eye contact with the bartender to then ignore you, this place is for you! Food is mediocre at best. Prices are more than fair

I would definitely recommend going here because their foods really good the workers are super nice and sometimes pretty funny. The decorations are cool and I really like how the lights look. They have a great salad bar and the bread is fantastic. If you want something amazing I would prefer the fish super tasty and delicious. I go here a decent amount of times a year and it’s pretty good. You should definitely go here.Kid-friendliness: Theres so much for the kids they will definitely eat

Server was horrible. Coughed on us multiple times and didn't even attempt to cover her mouth. Bread was hard as a rock. Both our sides came out extremely over cooked to the point it wasn't even edible . Very disappointed. Waitress clearly didn't wanna be working and made it very obvious. Never came back to see how are food is. We would of asked for new sides. Took over 20 minutes for her to bring us a check. Not a good experience at all.

Wow talk about a great place. First we had a reservation for 7:30 and 5 of the 8 of us were over 1 hour late. They sat the 3 of us and were completely attentive to the three of us. We order a few drinks and an appetizer while we waited. Once the rest of the party arrived we ordered our meals. Mind you 3 of the 8 of us were little kids and the wait staff worked with the kids so well to the older one the treated him like he was an adult and to the 2 younger o es they treated like they were the wait staffs own kids. It was my wife's Birthday and we had an amazing night it was as I said 8 of us 5 adults and 3 kids the adults had 3 or 4 rounds of drinks and I think everyone had some sort of Steak except the 2 little ones had chicken nuggets and the bill was just over $400. The atmosphere was great and the fireplace was beautiful and a great background for pictures. We had an amazing time and the staff was just great.Kid-friendliness: If I haven't said it enough they were great and took care of each of the kids perfectly
