“I wanna start off by saying congratulations to this new company. To my opinion, I felt like the food was great. The drinks were amazing we got the patron tower. my partner and I got the shrimp and grits with fried salmon on top. I also ordered the 8 count shrimp The playlist was hitting! There was a good crowd Also, great customer service Con's: I do feel like some of the items on the menu are overpriced.“
“I've been sitting on writing this review for awhile, probably longer than I should, but I still remember the evening pretty well and recently came across the photos that I had yet to post, so here goes nothing! But that is kind of the point, a restaurant like Marisol should leave you anxious to go home and tell others about what a great eating experience you had. In my case, while the food overall was good, I wasn't taken aback by anything, and at this price point, I feel that I should have been. Things started off really well, the server was eager to explain the restaurant and menu, and stayed very attentive throughout. Honestly, for my taste, overly attentive. But it's not a big place, and also wasn't very busy, so it makes sense he would have stayed vigilant with us. After ordering drinks, we received a small starter of goat cheese on crostini with some bruschetta, a nice way to kick things off. Then, one of the highlights, the basket of incredible breads was presented to us. If he had left the basket at the table, we probably would have run through it all, but we did have a few pieces with butter, that were beyond excellent. The appetizer course was fantastic. Flash fried buttermilk shrimp, house made gravlax, tomato pie, cavatelli, and a duck special. The tomato pie, I honestly wish i could have ordered a larger slice for my entrée, because I could eat that every day. The gravlax was kind of like eating lox, and I dug the texture with the crispy bread and shmear. The shrimp were plump, but given the price, nothing about them set them apart from fried shrimp elsewhere. The duck.. I said earlier about the tomato pie, maybe just give me the duck and tomato pie for an entrée, I would have been happy. For my main, i got the blackened NC mountain trout, and like others at my table, this is where the meal started to fall flat. The trout just didn't set itself apart in any way, other than the fish being clearly fresh. The blackening didn't add much flavor, nor did the sauce that it came with. For this being the supposed centerpiece of our experience, it was disappointing. I found myself wishing I got the duck breast that someone else had. For dessert, we shared the vanilla bean creme brulee and the bread pudding. The crème brûlée was well executed, which is no ordinary feat, so big props for that. The bread pudding however was the total opposite. I have never really encountered dry bread pudding before, but this was it. Even though it was covered in chocolate sauce (would have just liked a dish of that) and ice cream, still somehow dry to the bone. I was surprised the waiter didn't ask about it, given it was barely touched by all of us, and he had been so attentive to everything else. In the end, for the money, I don't know that I would return. As I said earlier, at this price point, it kind of needs to be great from top to bottom. Some of it was, but the most important part was kind of pedestrian. I could definitely see myself coming back for drinks and apps though!“
“Great service! It was hard to narrow down what to order for dinner. Everything on the menu sounded wonderful. The fried cauliflower and assorted cheese plate were both tasty choices for appetizers. The scallops were cooked perfectly. Highly recommended location for a date night or large party. They were reasonably busy for a late Friday evening with several large parties on the floor but our food was timed perfectly. We were in and out in an hour. We need to check out their brunch soon!“
“It was an excellent experience while we celebrated our 18th anniversary. Our server, Latoya was absolutely the best. She was very attentive and made great wine suggestions. I sincerely appreciate her and the service we received. Our order was perfectly cooked and timed perfectly. Thank you again! Shout out to Latoya, I hope you recognize the talent she offers to you and I hope you recognize her. As its people like her that will have loyal customers return. We don’t live in the area however, I will share this experience with all of my family and friends, which are about an hour and a half away from your location.“
“Our all favorite! Been coming for years and years and this place never disappoints! I've had pretty much everything but they are always rotating in new things and changing stuff up every season coming out with a new version of the menu so there is always something new and different. I recommend this to everyone“
“My husband and I love going here for date night, they also have the best brunch in town! I love that they rotate the menu with the season, I almost always get their seafood specials, the food is always excellent. Thursday night date nights here are some of my favorites. Must have their french toast at brunch and their truffle fries at lunch/dinner, if the Jagerschnitzel is on the menu-get it-it's fabulous“
