We made a reservation for dinner through Tripadvisor, which directed us to OpenTable. When we arrived the restaurant was closed! Why weren't we warned?
Nice place to have a fun or quiet date or girls night out. Food was good. But my steak was a little tough and the gave me a butter knife to cut my steak. I will come back and give it a second try.
My meal was pretty underwhelming, especially for the price. One small crab cake, green beans, and mashed potatoes was $27. The crab cake tasted good enough, but was nothing special. I'd love to have had a nice remoulade with it but it came with cocktail sauce (that's weird to me, but that might be normal in Maryland, I honestly don't know). The mashed potatoes were pretty good but they needed salt. The green beans were cooked to death, in my opinion. They were too soft and some of them were a bit brown and sad looking. Lastly, they brought me and everyone else in the restaurant waters in a plastic to go cup. That's really wasteful and contributes to plastic pollution for no reason.I'll be sure to choose another restaurant next time I'm in town.
The last timevI got grilled salmon the portion was small, not justified by the cost. This time the special stuffed salmon was much better. The staff should fully explain the specials and any menu item when answering the phone. Not just say the special is salmon. Etc. Go further and tell what else comes with it.
Rather than offer numerous examples about the poorly trained and inexperienced wait staff, offer details on why the dining area feels more like a cheap strip mall restaurant than anything artful, or explain deficiencies about the somewhat above-average entrees that were not gourmet, I will simply say that unless you are looking for an average experience that does not offer special ambience or value, I would NOT go here. We had a MUCH better experience earlier in the day at a regional Diner that offered better value, was at least as clean and MUCH better service. There was too much wrong to say it was an off night. Next time we are in the area we will dine elsewhere.
Food was excellent as was the service. Everyone was very helpful, went out of the way to make sure you had a positive experience. We will visit again soon.
We arrived at 5 pm before the dinner crowd. Asked if we could sit outside. Someone who appeared to be a manager said no to the hostess - then the next 3-5 guests were seated outside within minutes. Staff generally very nice but that experience left a bad taste. Sandwich was fine but I doubt we will return.
A great gala meet up or meeting spot for lunch. All the yum!!
Came in with a group of 7, 3 of whom it was their birthday. That wasn't even acknowledged (even though I had said it on the phone). Waiter kept disappearing, he left a large pile of dirty plates and silverware for the entire dinner while we needed the table space. Ordered 2 martini and they were not the same size. I had the mussels, which were over cooked and some cold, and the salad with the seared tuna, which wasn't fresh at all. It's like it had been seared sometime last week. I was hoping this could be our go to restaurant for special occasions, but it's doubtful I'll even eat here again.
Super staff and amazing food!!!
