"Everything was great except the sauce for the steak Frites. Do not eat that sauce it is really bad. Pork rings are a must order, the best Iâve ever had. Shrimp and grits also fantastic not to be missed."

"We had a group of 9 people and were celebrating 2 birthdays. Our party was placed in a very nice private room and from first entering the establishment until leaving the coat check we were treated with a top level service! Outstanding hospitality, ambience, and incredible food. We tried several appetizers, drinks, entrees, and desserts. Everything was amazing. Highly recommend for small gatherings or individual meals. The pork chop was outstanding! The shrimp cocktail was delicious. The twice baked potatoes as a side were wonderful. Go here and give this place your time. No regrets and will be going here definitely again!"

"We came here for the first time last night to celebrate our son's 28th birthday. Service was impeccable and very gracious. The food was beautifully plated and so delicious! Our cocktails, a pineapple mojito for me, a Manhattan for my husband, and a Le Poire for my son, we all very tasty. We ordered the artichoke beignets, duck spring rolls, and Brussels sprout chips to share as starters, and all were delicious. My son ordered the Caesar salad, my husband ordered the butter lettuce and pear salad, and my daughter and I shared the beet salad. Again, all delicious, though the first two salads were a tad over dressed, which we pointed out to the manager. My son had the wild mushroom pizza, my husband had the seared scallops, my daughter had the baby back ribs, and I had the linguini pasta with seafood. Each was sooo delicious, and my pasta was the best I've ever had! We finished the celebration with the key lime pie for my son (on the house for the birthday boy! , and we shared the passion fruit sorbet and the chocolate mousse cake among the four of us, as well. The guys both had coffee an espresso for my son, and a cappuccino for my husband. Again, all were amazing, and my daughter especially enjoyed that she could eat the chocolate cake because it was gluten free. We will definitely return!"

"We had a great lunch at Wa Jeal. Starting with spring onion pancakes (delicious) and ending with chicken and broccoli (again delicious), the lunch (rice, main course and soup) was very cheap and delicious. The environment is wonderful - brick walls and pretty decorations and the service excellent. Highly recommended!!"

"The food was great, but the service was poor. We were of total tables in the downstairs area, so it wasn't due to the place being busy. We sat down and were able to order pretty quickly, and the food arrived not too long after. The problem was that the server just wasn't there after our food was served. Our drinks were out and the bartender actually came out from behind the bar to refill our drinks. Once we were done eating, we waited close to minutes to get the bill. Multiple times we tried to stop our server to ask for it, but she rushed by or didn't come by our table. I would come again because the food was good and just hope that the server was having a bad night"

"Not my kind of place. The bar / tavern had screaming, loud customers on a day when there was no one around. Really a tasting menu, teen plate, teen servings, bad value for money. The waitress told me that the green peppers in my clam chowder were mild - they weren't and had to spit out with a burning mouth. Really embarrassing when I was treated. Instead, they gave me asparagus. Your only vegetable. They didn't notice that my water glass was empty and I had to request it. Backless benches to sit in the tavern / bar, but you can request an uncomfortable chair. Not a place where you, like me, eat a lot of healthy protein and vegetables. I don't like leaving a restaurant where I feel bloated with too much food, but I don't want to go hungry either. The coffee was good after the meal."

"We elected to dine at Gibson’s as we received multiple recommendations from friends. However, the experience fell way short. As for good, table was ready 15 minutes early, personable accommodating waiter, and sea bass was incredible. On the other hand, horrible atmosphere. Basically, the restaurant intended to put as many tables as possible in a single room, at the expense of any privacy. The surrounding tables were practically dining with us. Additionally, 14 oz filet mignon was ordered with high hopes but it was a big disappointment. As for my suggestion to anyone looking for options, STK Steakhouse, where we dined the night before, earned 5 stars in every single aspect."

"Service was terrible, server didn’t know anything about the food. She was nice enough, but far from knowledgeable. Another employee kept wanting to clear our plates, so we finally handed them to her with mouths full of food and forks in our hands. That was a bit annoying. Wine list is way overrated and WAY overpriced. It definitely seems like a “wannabe” restaurant. Everything is totally overrated. Food was actually good, but that was the only positive about our experience. Server said they didn’t have potatoes, but somehow my scallops came out with potatoes on the plate. Confused me even more. Glad I didn’t pay the for the venison that I really wanted to try. I would have ordered it if our server knew how it was prepared and what it came with. Everything about this place other than how the food tasted, was annoying and a complete letdown"

"Amazing salsa !! Great service and a fun environment !!! But they need better chefs with more than one cooking style who know how NOT to overcook all the meat they offer. ALL dishes taste very similar! All with burnt burn marks on "whatever" meat, mixed with similar spices and all well done to finish cooking. The burned cremation, like a fajitas, but for every dish? This is the second time that I had to come here with the same results ... I refuse the next time I am invited ... Maybe have a drink because the mood is good and fun ... she just need better cooks ..."

"Both my wife and I have seen the Hawthorne go through ups and downs as far as food quality. Both our companies had been having their Christmas parties there for years, but both independently decided about 3 years ago to not return due to the decline in the level of food being served. Our recent Valentine's Day dinner experience was not the best. I really hate to complain, but I ordered a filet mignon $46) that was riddled with gristle. It left me doubting that it was actually filet mignon. My wife's prime rib $42) was full of blubber, and they served an end cut that she did not request. She had to send it back for another that was better, although a little tough to chew. On a positive note, the service was good, and the waitress and manager were sympathetic to our situations. They gave us a free dessert, and my meal was taken off the bill since I had not eaten much. We both thought that someone in the kitchen should have spotted the inferior cuts of meat and not allowed them to be served. I'm not sure we will go back to give Casa Mia another chance."

"It was a bit confusing as to how it worked. We were in the lounge section and someone âpointed â us to where our table was. Then it took at least minutes for the server to come. We had to ask how to proceed. Although she was very nice we had to keep looking for her for help. Walking across the entry to get to the food was frustrating as there were people coming in, people leaving and those with full plates of food that we had to navigate through. Then no one picked up our dirty plates! You definitely needed more servers for the amount of people there. My suggestion is each room should have their own food station which would alleviate all the confusion. You wouldnât lose any seating as the tables would replace the food station."

"We are visiting from CT. The food was good, the margaritas were good (my favorite was the banana margarita) , the server was great! No issues and the drinks got us pretty good! I highly recommend this place. But just know there is a 16% gratituity added already, a covid fee, and also just seat yourself and save the time standing there looking stupid lol."

"Crab dip was subpar but steamed shrimp was awesome. Server never cleared the table before bringing out more food. Then the runner looked confused when I asked her to remove the dirty plates first. My husband noticed the building was under negative air pressure caused from Kitchen hood exhaust (kitchen saloon doors sucked in) causing hot humid exterior air to rush into the restaurant when the exterior doors would open. Sit away from doors if you want A/C. Outdoor seating looked nice and led to long pier on the water."

"Tiffani was horrible. My mom cannot have sugar so she brought a flavored water. She advised we are not allowed to have outside drinks. (Okay, that's fine) we get our meal and see other people with outside drinks and out of the 5 or so waitresses including her, nobody said anything. That's fine we just mind our own business and get our meal. The meal was OK, but the waitress refused to apply the face value of the expired Groupon (Groupon's policy is that while you wont get the promotional value of the offer, you will get the face value of what you paid for the voucher) to the meal. Groupon refunded me and opened an investigation into Black Horse Tavern. Note: it's also a violation of california state law because I am not getting promotional value, just face value for what I already paid (think of gift cards/cash) Good luck with business. I regularly catered this place via Foodja and took my parents here a few times. Lost a customer that drove thousands of dollars of business over $20 that you were legally supposed to apply."

"As a disabled man who uses a mobility scooter, I decided to have dinner with my son at Granite Steak and Grill on August 1, 2023. Upon our arrival, the restaurant was busy. I approached the hostess, who told me there would be a 15-minute wait for a table for two. I overheard her saying to someone else that she didn't see the wheelchair. I was shocked when the person she was speaking to threw their hands in the air. She then informed me that it would be another 15 minutes, making it a total of 30 minutes waiting for me, while others were seated. I was dressed in a bright yellow shirt and my scooter had reflective tape, so it was hard to miss me. It was disheartening to be treated this way as a disabled person."

"My colleagues and I had reservations at 12 noon and was seated promptly. Since Burmese restaurant are rear in the area, we were really looking forward to this experience. While we weren't in a hurry, the restaurant was. Drinks were ordered and they pushed to have a food order at the same time. We choose to wait to order the food until the drinks were brought to us. We ordered the Burmese style beef and goat stew as well as the Moh Hin Ga (Fish Noodle Soup). While the sauces of the meat stews were nice, it wasn't spectacular! The stew meats were definitely not tender. If you enjoy tough meat, then these dishes are for you. Additionally, the Moh Hin Ga was lacking in flavor and in my colleagues words: "would not order it again". Also, soft drinks and iced tea and refilled complimentary. Given the rush and the below average experience, will not be going back. Given there their great Yelp ratings, there seems to be a lot of patrons that like it. Maybe we just attended them on a bad day or the normal Chef was not present that day..."

"I can’t believe I haven’t been here before! I think the name gave me the impression they only served wine and had a limited menu. However, they offer a wide variety of appetizer and entree choices along with a full service bar. The wine flights were very reasonably priced $16 for three generous glasses! . I was with friends and we only had appetizers. The beef skewers were amazing as were the flatbreads! I plan to return soon with my husband to try the entrees. Highly recommended!"
