Very disappointing experience. My wife and I had reservations for 8 PM and arrived at 7:55PM and were told the wait would be 5-10 minutes. We waited over an hour for our table despite being told by the hostess "we were next to be called" multiple times. I waited til 25 minutes past 8 before I even inquired about our status for the first time. Our party was only 2 people and I saw numerous parties of both the same size and larger come after us and seated before us. I consider myself a patient patron and gave the hostess the benefit of the doubt, but after the 3rd time I was told "we were next", I felt like my patience and kindness were being taken advantage of. Ultimately, the hostess blamed her co-worker, saying that they texted me when they did not (they ask for your cell # when you arrive and text you when your table is ready), I only received original welcome text, but then also that she confused me with someone else. So which was it? I spoke with manager to simply provide feedback, and he offered us nothing other than a free drink. Considering we had already spent an hour at the bar plus the amount we were spending on dinner, the gesture was hollow.

Stopped by late afternoon on a Sunday, there were about 3 others at the bar, and it took about 10 minutes to be acknowledges by the bartender. He then obtained my wifes dink without asking for my order. Eventually we received our drinks. The margarita was marginal, I ordered a draft beer. The food menu looks impressive, but on a first visit I decided in a bowl of clam chowder, and their Almshouse Burger. My wife decided on a bowl of three squash soup and a cheeseburger. The soup came in rather large servings, but was bland. The chowder had no flavor, the squash tasted like pumpkin puree. Or burgers were small, and lacked any seasoning. Mine was dry ( ordered medium), my wifes was almost rare (ordered medium). The Almshouse Burger is supposed to come with fried egg. The egg wash overcooked. Not a good first impression.

This place is a real gem! Although we wanted to sit on the covered patio, it was full we opted to sit in one of the smaller dining rooms. We were glad we stayed. My husband had the 3 course Sunday gravy meal which includes soup or salad, entree and dessert. His Pasta Ragu was excellent with short ribs, a large meatball and sausage, more than enough for two meals. For an appetizer, I had the crab bisque soup, absolutely delicious. My entree was Chicken & Mushroom Marsala, two good size breasts with marsala gravy done over a mountain of mashed potatoes, little bundles of white & green asparagus, garnished with roasted red peppers and carrots. The presentation was so beautiful I almost hated to take a bite. The menu was varied and extensive. We will be back soon!

I came in for lunch service on a Tuesday. Ive been interested in taking my wife so I thought I would check it out first. The restaurant is well designed and has a nice atmosphere. The food unfortunately did not match the atmosphere. I ordered the calamari and it was very greasy and sweet and they didnt have any cocktail sauce. The burger was good but the fries and bacon were overcooked. I would give them another try for dinner service but I wouldnt expect it to be much different.

Excellent food and service! What a wonderful dinning experience. Very creative menu, from starters, main entrees, to desserts. Great craft beer selections as well as single malts. Our compliments to the executive chef! Excellent, excellent job. Food was magnificent! This will be the first of many more visits to come.

Wonderful food. Excellent staff with a plethora of knowledge. Want to satisfy all your taste buds early in the meal? Hit up the Crab Poutine youll thank me later :) Menu was small but each choice looked like it wouldnt disappoint so I will have to go back and try something new!

Came in on a Friday @ 6:30 with no reservation and a 45m wait time. Anthony was running around like a mad man and did his best to get us a table for 4. I have been here several times now and each time the experience was great. Oh if you like wings these are the best in town.

This is a wonderful restaurant. The food is fresh and delicious. They had an amazing homemade skillet cookie. I love how they locally source the food. Service was excellent, servers were friendly and professional. Nice enviroment, nice outdoor space. I highly recommend.

Service outstanding. Food outstanding. Bartender outstanding!. This is a well designed space for the location and theyre adding more outside seating. Feels really classy when you walk in but not overly dressy. Love the outside bar! My new favorite go to place!

The food and service here is fantastic!! The dry rub wings were amazing and so was my "blues" burger! Our waiter was so down to earth and friendly, he had great suggestions as well! Remember to ask for the Cooper sharp cheese with your fries!

Our waitress was great. Attentive and helpful. The food was ok. Some things were really good and some things were not. Was not happy with the rude other staff members. And lack of common sense in other staff members. Would not come back.

Been here about 5-6 times since it opened. Great food and great service each time. I think this place, unlike previous restaurants at this location, will last a long time. Good bar. Fun happy hours.

The food was "good"... the server was poor! (Asked if we wanted the soda refilled, she took the glass that was 3/4 full of water and topped it off with soda) daaaaa!! Kinda killed to experience!
