"My friend recommended this place as she said it was pretty good the last time she went. The time we went together? Not so much. It's a pretty cute place! Very cozy with not too many tables. The service was pretty bad and the food was just okay. We made reservations for 8:00 PM on Friday and it wasn't needed. There were only a few tables with customers. I arrived 10 minutes before our reservation and was seated immediately. Although it took 15 minutes to get a menu and water. After we got our menus it took about another 20-25 minutes to place our order. We decided to order everything at once because of how long it was taking. I would totally understand if the place was full of people but for being pretty empty, it was surprising. We ordered hummus, chicken curry and a spinach appetizer that I am forgetting the name of now. We got our appetizers in a decent time and the hummus was actually really good. I ordered the pomegranate sangria and I'm almost positive it was just a random red wine with ice cubes. It had no pomegranate flavor at all and didn't taste like it was made in house. My friend said her lemonade tasted store bought even though it says freshly squeezed. The time kept going though, we thought about cancelling our entrees because of how long it was taking and since we weren't getting checked on we didn't really know what the status was. Once we got our food, it wasn't terrible but it also wasn't memorable. We were also just full from so much bread. By this time it was about 9:20 PM. So over an hour to get our food while everyone around us seemed to get theirs. I wouldn't go back again but hey, great hummus."

"Finally made a visit to the rebuilt Blessings Tavern Sat 12/04/21 1230pm. Beautiful new tavern reopened in 2018 after a fire due to a motor vehicle collision with the building Oct 29, 2016. This neighborhood favorite was established in 1950 and cultivated a very loyal following. Family friends, working class lunches, and a lunch stop for golfers. We had been here many times in the past (pre-Yelp). Very comfortable place to drink dine.This Sat was very busy at lunch time, full in the dining area. As we walked in we were greeted by a familiar face. Karen has been here for many years and is a veteran of the local food service industry. I have known her for 30+ years. Today she was serving lunches and tending bar. We sat at the bar, ordered drinks and looked over the menu. Full service bar, draft bottled beers, wine. The menu includes soups, salads, apps, hot cold sandwiches wraps, some seafood dinners. My dates had the cup-o-soup 1/2 sandwich lunch deal. Tomato rice soup 4) 1/2 cold roast beef sandwich 8 I had a loaded chili dog that came w/ a big serving of American-style macaroni salad 8). We were all very pleased w/ our choices. The owner, Liz also came in while we were there. The menu at Blessings is a real value.Hours: M-F 11:30am-9:30pm, Sat Sun 12-9:30pm. Check their website for for live music on Sat nights.A fun visit at a great neighborhood tavern. Thank you for excellent service Karen, Liz, staff.

"Since this place has no reviews, I would like to review this place, I got a groupon for this restaurant and checked it out a little while ago. It was 15 for 30 dollars. Sounds great, right? Well, we went there and presented it. So, they seat us and give us the menu and tell us since we are ordering dinner the prices will be higher. Okay, then why not give us a dinner menu? The decor was nice, but not very busy considering they only had one other customer. So we ordered some bread which was okay, and some spinach dip which was just disgusting. I had spinach dip at many restaurants and it was not fresh at all. I brought it up to the manager's attention and said it was not fresh. He denied it, but offered to take it away. And he did not charge us, which would be great Now, if they did not add an extra 30 dollars on top of the regular prices that were on the menu, I would say the restaurant is okay. But, they added 30 bucks and gave me some made up lie that they had to adjust the prices. They ripped me off, plain and simple. And the food was not so great. The seafood was not so fresh. I had better seafood at red lobster, and for less money. I would not recommend anyone to this particular restaurant, unless you feel like being ripped off. I wanted to have a talk with the manager about taking care of the customer, but my girlfriend restrained me. Oh well, lesson learned...never use groupon for restaurants you never heard of. (Traducido por Google) Como este lugar no tiene reseñas, me gustaría revisar este lugar, Conseguí un groupon para este restaurante y lo comprobé hace un rato. Eran 15 por 30 dólares. Suena genial, ¿verdad? Bueno, fuimos allí y lo presentamos. Entonces, nos sientan y nos dan el menú y nos dicen que como vamos a pedir la cena, los precios serán más altos. Bien, entonces ¿por qué no nos das un menú para la cena? La decoración era agradable, pero no muy concurrida teniendo en cuenta que solo tenían otro cliente. Así que pedimos un poco de pan que estaba bien, y un poco de salsa de espinacas que era asquerosa. Tuve salsa de espinacas en muchos restaurantes y no estaba fresca en absoluto. Se lo mencioné al gerente y le dije que no estaba fresco. Él lo negó, pero se ofreció a llevárselo. Y no nos cobró, que sería genial Ahora, si no agregaran 30 dólares adicionales a los precios regulares que estaban en el menú, diría que el restaurante está bien. Pero agregaron 30 dólares y me dijeron una mentira inventada de que tenían que ajustar los precios. Me estafaron, simple y llanamente. Y la comida no era tan buena. El marisco no era tan fresco. Tuve mejores mariscos en langosta roja, y por menos dinero. No recomendaría a nadie este restaurante en particular, a menos que sientas que te están estafando. Quería hablar con el gerente sobre cómo cuidar al cliente, pero mi novia me refrenó. Bueno, lección aprendida... nunca uses groupon para restaurantes de los que nunca has oído hablar."
