Reviews
"Food quality was excellent compared to other local establishments, but the portion was very small for the price, especially salads as a dinner with added protein. The salad was the same size as the salad that another person got with a meal entree, although the salad with added protein was more expensive! Ended up getting two salads! In addition, the place was busy, but our service stunk and a larger table got served before us, although we were there prior to and ordered before the other table! Waitress was extremely rude about the situation when confronted! She should be fired!"
"Not great. Food was mediocre. I got a thin crust pizza which was actually okay. My husband got a chicken Caesar salad and it came with the smallest little piece of very dry chicken and no dressing on the salad. Same with the chicken parm, very tiny piece of chicken on a plate of pasta and sauce. Clam linguine was pretty tasteless. Not impressed at all for a $200 dinner. Incredibly overpriced for the quality of the food"
"I sincerely don't like leaving bad review, but this is curtesy to Stacey, the owner of this restaurant. We suppose to meet our friends and enjoy a dinner, but after about 20min of waiting for table, Stacey cheerfully announced that our table is ready. When we start approaching her she noticed our dog - service dog with a vest on with warning patches (service dog, do not touch, working dog) "Stacey: "We don't allow dogs here!" Us: "we can stay on the patio" Stacey: "No! No dogs are allowed even on the patio!" Me: "This is a service dog" Stacey: "Service dog for what?"...out loud in middle of outside patio, on front of staff and guests .... for privacy reasons I'll skip my answer. After my answer she agreed we can stay, but "you have to wait few more minutes, because dogs can't be around people who eat" About 30min later I went inside to ask how much longer we have to wait before seated. Stacey answered that the people ordered a desert so we will have to wait about 15 more minutes. Btw half of the patio was empty.... I informed Stacey that I understand many times people are introducing their emotional support animals as a service dog, but this is not the case and, by law, she have no right to treat us this way and she have absolutely no right to ask me why I need my service dog! Right into my face she was barking that "I know the law and I know my rights! I have every right to ask what type of service dog it is!" One of the regular restaurant guests stood up for me and start arguing with Stacey on my behalf, confirming that I'm right about the law and she is wrong. Stacey still kept telling her story. 4 hungry kids and over 1 + hour later we had been finally seated. Stacey took our drink order but messed up on it. Her regular guest came to our table, expressing an apology for this mistreatment and applauding me for not causing scene, controlling myself. Food was great and rest of the staff very friendly and nice. Stacey didn't showed herself again. Our host, informed Stacey, he will contact county about our experience. While you have every right to kick us out if our dog is misbehaving, you have no right to refuse entry to service dog even inside your facility, you have no right to refuse us service because of service dog and you have absolutely no right to ask me for what do I need service dog. My mental/ physical health is none of your business, lady. I'll pray that nobody close to your heart will ever go through what I did so they don't have to deal with the consequences, judging and excluding from people like you..."
"An amazing restaurant off the main track in Chester. I was surprised by how tasty the food was with quality ingredients and delectable flavors. Service was suberb and sitting outside in the evening was relaxing surrounded by the pine trees."
"Excellent service and delicious food. We sat on the deck and they allowed our dog to join us. They also brought out a bowl of water for her. Super thoughtful. I had the Alfredo with sausage and my husband had the turkey twist. Highly recommend this restaurant. It’s a bit on the expensive side, so perfect for a nice evening out."
