This was a great meal. Loved the popcorn shrimp and the veal with brown gravy! The martinis were awesome! Would go there again .

I understand that this establishment changed hands recently which may account for the issues that happened to my family tonight. It took a very long time for us to get service, it wasn't because our waitress wasn't paying attention but I'm guessing that they were short staffed. My issue was that I ordered appetizers for my kids and my parents and I and the wait from the time we finished our apps and the time we received our entrees was about 45-50 minutes. My kids and I were no longer hungry. I did not order both entrees and appetizers at the exact same time but only about 5 minutes apart. My kids, ages 7&8 boxed up our dinners and went home. My parents wanted to stay. I will give this place another chance but it won't be for a few months.

Homestead has been a family favorite since Matt first opened the place! Hearing that they had a new owner we decided to visit and see what has changed. We weren't disappointed; they've kept all the old favorites and had an interesting list of specials. Knowing there was a new chef I thought I'd try items off the Specials menu. The Calamari Olio was delicious !! There was a great ratio of tomatoes, olives and peppers to the calamari. The rings themselves were cooked to perfection; I'd definitely order it again! Corn chowder and clam chowder were great as always. My husband went for the fried scallops served with fries and slaw. It was just as good as always. I tried the chicken piccata with potato and veggie. It was scrumptious!! I dare so it was so flavorful that I don't think it even needed the breading on the chicken. The servers, as always, are super friendly, efficient and add to the dining experience. The kitchen was a bit backed up but it's an all new back house staff and I have no doubt they will have it together in short order. Don't let reviews about the place being a local hangout serving 'comfort food' dissuade you from making the drive. The homey atmosphere, the front staff service and the food itself make it worth the drive! We will definitely continue to keep The Homestead in our list of places to dine!

An excellent restaurant with diner prices, quick service, and cozy atmosphere.
Food was outstanding. Our server was on top of things and we didn't wait long for any part of our meal. I would have given it 5 stars but it was so packed in there and so loud it was hard to hear the people right next to me speaking. No need to cram that many extra tables in. In fact, when a table next to us was leaving, they had trouble getting out from there table and bumped into our friend when getting up. We will give it another try, earlier tho!
