"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 hosted a large birthday party in the new room. We had not only vegetarians but also lots of issues with super low salt diets and those that just don 't like mushrooms and eggplants etc. etc. Jay, the chef, was BEYOND patient and all the food was fantastic. He even made 3 levels of Chicken Marsala (full salt, low salt and no salt by using two different kinds of Marsala wine). Oh, and the Eggplant Parmesan was amazing. I suspect we are one of those customers that generate kitchen nightmares. Sabrina was fantastic about ideas to accommodate everyone. We had the brunch as well for extra options. Its important to note that many other restaurants charge a $2 cake cutting fee for each guest if you bring in a cake. Spinners does not, they only ask that you provide your own disposable plates. This place has lots of good off street parking which helped since some guests used wheelchairs. The bar drinks were as well priced as the food. Briana was the perfect hostess and made sure everyone got what they ordered and the food came out in good time. The staff was uniformly cheerful and eager to assist. If Jay has not blacklisted us we will certainly be back for future parties."

"On December 3rd, I received an email from The Gourmet Pizza Shoppe apologizing for the inconvenience and canceling the transaction. Despite this issue, I will continue to support The Gourmet Pizza Shoppe. However, the Redlands Chamber of Commerce should address this issue to ensure that all downtown businesses are not affected during the Christmas season. I had ordered a 16-inch prospector pizza online on Saturday, December 2nd, and paid $34.28 for it using a credit card. Unfortunately, my wife was unable to pick up the pizza as all the streets were blocked off for the holidays, making it impossible to get within 2 miles of the shop. When I tried calling to cancel the order, no one answered the phone, and their voicemail was full. It is frustrating that there was no way to contact them, especially during the holiday season when the streets are blocked off annually. This situation is unacceptable."

"We had a larger group dining experience at Blue Fork. Rating for myself, my meal was hot, fresh, and great tasting. The portion size was just right. I had the Blue Fork Burger with modifications; portobello mushroom instead of burger, and no bleu cheese crumbles, with a Maui side salad. All modifications were swapped perfectly. We had one server, serving the 11 of us and she kept our drinks full, as well as provided new chilled glasses for some of the cans of beer. She kept an upbeat and happy attitude and served us very well. I had a blackberry mimosa, which could have used a little more blackberry in it, but overall, I was happy with my drink. I was too full to try a dessert or after dinner dessert drink, but the choices looked amazing. The music was not too loud, the plants added to the atmosphere and ambiance and the smells coming from the kitchen were amazing. I have been to Blue Fork in the past, and this was by far, the best visit yet."

"Zero Stars. DO NOT GO HERE OR ANY OTHER LOCATION. I was here last night 2/5/2022 with a group of friends. My boyfriend and I got there first so we decided to head in and get a table. Mind you, we 've never been here before. So we walk up, no line and security checks and scans our IDs and then we are fully patted down and my purse was checked. My boyfriend was wearing a beanie and they told him he had to take it off. Ok a bit much for a bar but I get it. We walk in it 's super loud, the host isn 't wearing a mask, and she says it 's $10 for guys and free for girls if we follow them on Instagram. So obviously I follow them. But when we try to pay they say it 's cash only. Luckily I had a $20 on me so we were allowed in. Upon entry I see a sign that says seat yourself . So we go to find a table that can accommodate ourselves plus the 6 that will be joining us. We 're sitting for about 10 minutes and no one comes to see us, so my boyfriend goes to the bar while I stay at the table. Two drinks were $28, they were decent sized, but still a bit pricey considering the $10 to get in. This is where **** goes south: My friend didn 't have her ID on her but had a paper document equivalent, security said it would be $60 TO ENTER. PLUS ENTRY FREE. They didn 't mention following Instagram to her so she had to pay $70 JUST TO GET IN. I wish she told me but we all made it inside and sat down noticeably upset. We got another round of drinks and then Secirty came over and told us we had to move to a booth because the table we were at was reserved?? But when we walked in it said seat yourself and there wasn 't a reserved sign on the table?? We moved anyway, but the booth didn 't accommodate all of us, so 2 of us had to stand! And we were right where people are passing by so we had to constantly move out of the way. We were trying to humor the situation at that point, so we decided to stay an hour and then leave. The only good thing was the music, but it was so loud that we couldn 't have a conversation. My voice is shot from screaming trying to talk. Moral of story: THIS. PLACE. SUCKS. I don 't know how they can be in Town Square and treat people that way. It seems like a bunch of con artists to me especially after reading other negative reviews where prices are different and people continue to feel disrespected. I don 't really write reviews but I was very compelled this time, and hopefully it will stop other people from getting ripped off and irritated. McFaddens can consider themselves formally BLOCKED."

"From 9/29/21: Anyways must have changed kitchen staff recently. This is my second disappointing order in a row. The pretzel sticks are burnt and as hard as a rock. There is no way these should have been served. Please view video with this review. I want you to see what I mean. From 2020/ original review: I wish I had taken pictures but I literally inhaled everything I ordered and am now sitting here trying to fend off a food coma. The Italian beef egg rolls are amazing. A tad bit on the salty side but crispy on the outside, hot and spicy on the inside and overall delicious. The cool ranch wrap was incredible. Upgraded the side item to the Black and Tan onion rings, another good choice on my part. The guac was so flavorful, but I didn’t try the salsa that came with it because I ordered 2 desserts the molten chocolate cake and key lime pie. If you love rich chocolatey desserts, go for the molten cake. You won’t regret it. The key lime pie was light, tart and creamy. "

"The food was good, and service was good as well. I got the crab cake sandwich. It wasn't huge, but was mostly lump crab cake with little filler. The bun seemed to be a basic potato bun, and it was not served with lettuce or tomato- just plain. I reallylike crab cakes, and am pretty particular about the quality. This wasn't the best, but wasn't bad either. It would have beenbetter with lettuce and tomato. It was very reasonably priced. The fries were good. It is a very pretty restaurant and seemslike it would be a good place for a date. The one downside was how loud it was when we were there (6:30 pm on a weekday). Therewere several families with small children, including babies that cried most of the time we were there. I think it's probably abetter family restaurant than a place for a date, as conversation was difficult."

"First of all, GET THE PRETZEL. This place had great beer and LARGE portions of shareable plates. The pretzel and nachos were fantastic in flavor and had enough substance to share among the 6 of us. Every single dish that came out looked amazing. Theburgers were presented on a platform, very juicy and FULL of flavor. Highly recommend giving this place a try!"

"My aunt and I got the steak and eggs breakfast... it was a phenomenal price! Food was good size portions... restaurant was clean and pleasant, wait staff was very friendly, quick to service, food came out in a timely fashion... the only think I wish was that there was some kind of seasoning on the steak while it was being cooked... Salt and Pepper would have brought this meal from good to absolutely amazing... home fries needed cooked a little more, there were a couple of the larger peices that were still a little crunchy... I'd definitely go here again for the price!"

"Oscar 's restaurant was under construction or just closed down and we were celebrating an anniversary not notifying us as to having us to sit in the bar area with racing people, kids, and general lower atmosphere with six or so TV 's blaring for a celebration. Did try to separate us with a reserved table in the corner but as people came in, we got joined in our area. Service was very good and food was better than most hotel foods. I am just sorry that they did not give us heads up to the construction as we gave them in advance notice about our celebration and Oscar s was recommended to us as a better place in Portsmouth to dine."

"There are certainly better options in Addison to consider. I would strongly advise against visiting this place. I stopped by late Wednesday night to celebrate a friend's birthday with some drinks. We were seated at the main bar on the first floor when a cockroach scuttled across the bar top. I was understandably upset, but the bartender, Mackenzie, remained surprisingly calm; she casually disposed of the roach with a napkin and walked away. It seems clear that this wasn’t her first encounter with such a situation. The presence of one roach suggests there are likely many more hiding around, which raises serious concerns about the cleanliness of the establishment—it is simply not up to standard. After witnessing that incident, I couldn’t finish my drink, settled my tab for just one drink, and left promptly. The tiny food portions, which come at exorbitant prices (for example, 8 individual nachos for $14), and a dirty bar are enough for me to decide I won't be returning."

"Honestly the food wasn't horrible but the drinks are definitely a joke. My family tried this place and we ended up sitting and waiting for the band to play. We had maybe 5 drinks each. There was little to no alcohol in them. I'm a light weight and it felt like I was drinking flavored water. At 7 bucks a piece after taxes you'd think they'd try. I ended with a margarita to help the fun start only to get a salty flavored drink. It was so salty I might a well have had some saline. Idk, what is going on behind that bar but liquor pouring is not one of them. They had a guest flailing around during the bands performance that changed the entire energy of room. I feel like this first time experience could have been so much better but it was chaos and weak drinks. Guess I should mention the cold limp fries on my $16 plate. I'm glad I was at least there with loved ones or the experience would've not been worth it at all."

"Place was not crowded and sat quickly with our reservation. Initially server was prompt in asking for our drink order but then every interaction after that was ssslllllloooooowwwwww. Not sure where he wouldn’t disappear to but was not attentive to our needs. I could see similar frustrations from other tables near by. Food was good not great partly because it sat under the lamps. Don’t feel the pretzel knots are with the cost. Fresh onion soup cup was barley full but the photo on the menu shows different. Will we go back, probably. Just hope we get a different waiter"

"The service was fantastic. The decor is superb. The atmosphere was electric. There was a band playing more older music than contemporary. The food was very good. Came out very hot and very fast. Sat at the bar. I will definitely try this place again next time I 'm in Elkton and looking to get something to eat. What I had was the shrimp and scallops on vegetable rice with pickled beets. It was very good. Not really a fan of the rice. I would have preferred it on a pilaf. My two friends had the chicken fried steak which he said was fantastic, and the other guy had these black Angus sirloin? I think that 's what they called it. He said it was very good and cooked perfectly. Wheelchair accessibility: It is wheelchair accessible"
