"Okay, I'm a little delayed on my review for Hazelwood and I apologize for that. It really is a very lovely place to dine. I was lucky enough to be taken here for lunch for watching over my youngest nephew. Fortunately, my family are a bunch of foodies, including my adult children. Anyway...we were having a late lunch in the early Spring of the year so the place was quiet, which in my opinion was very nice. We were seated in a large horseshoe shaped, well padded corner booth. Plenty of room for the four of us. Us adults ordered the Hazelwood Chopped Salad $15.95), the Salmon Bowl $20.95) and the Shrimp Scallop Scampi $28.95) with a side of their amazing hash browns. The Chopped Salad consists of tender shredded chicken, bacon bits, fresh corn off the cob, thinly sliced granny smith apples, a chopped nicely boiled egg, colorful fresh grape tomatoes topped off with crumbles of amablu cheese. The dressing was an in house Herb Vinaigrette that was just as tasty as the salad. Then of course there was the Salmon Bowl with charred corn salsa that was addicting, it fit in perfectly with the fresh baby greens, edamame, crisp juicy cucumbers grape tomatoes. The brown rice was cooked to perfection. It wasn't dry or over cooked. I can say the same thing about the salmon fillet, nicely prepared with wonderful grill marks on the outside. The flavors were mouth watering. The meal came with a side of plum sauce, which was quite good, but it was barely used. That should tell you how good a meal really is. Lastly, was the Wood Fired Shrimp Scallop Scampi. Just the presentation of this meal was beautiful. The shrimp were huge and perfectly cooked with that lovely light pink color, the scallops matched the size of the shrimp! No rubbery seafood here! The combination of vegetables only enhanced the smoked flavors of the shrimp and scallops. On a side note: Their seafood is flown in fresh almost daily 6 days a week) and immediately inspected. We really enjoyed ourselves there was no rush. Our server was welcoming and wonderful throughout our entire meal. Thanks for the wonderful food and great service! We'll be back."

"Let me start off by saying that my family has been planning to come here for probably 2 years but covid hit and we all know what happened. So finally we are here for our post christmas get together in 2022! Lol I didnt really want to expect too much because I thought there was that chance this restaurant can be overrated and a tourist trap but i was mistaken! (One of those mistakes you can be happy about). We made reservations so the wait wasnt long when we arrived. Our server was good and friendly and got all our orders right. We started off with a delicious burrata with great balsamic drizzle and some crispy calamari. We all enjoyed our apps. For entrees we got the seafood pasta which was so generous in portion! We also had the sandwich, salmon, mushroom ravioli and their steak frites. The ravioli was nicely done but didnt expect it to be “soupy” though. Still had good flavor but would have preferred it to be less “liquidy”. We thoroughly enjoyed the steak frites though which was a surprise! I didnt think it would be that enjoyable but it was. Good portions, tender meat and nicely flavored! That plate became clean afterwards lol they also had a few items for the kids such as chicken tenders and fries so it worked well that everybody got something they wanted from the menu. We actually had a good time. Our only dismay (minor though) was that we didnt get to sit by the tent where we had originally wanted. Not the restaurants mistake, we just didnt specify it when we booked and we didnt bother asking during that time if we could transfer to save ourself and the staff the trouble although I did wish I had tried to ask still. It was beautiful there during Christmas time!"
