"??????? The worst Customer Service experience ever!! We walked in at 10:34PM confirming with the security that pizza will be available (Keep in mind that we only went there for the pizza. Upon ordering immediately with the bartender, we waited about 30min for our order. It never showed up! So we asked the bartender what’s going on. To our ultimate surprise, the bartender whoclaimed to be the manager ultimately, was quite rude and kept interrupting us trying to shut us down. She rudely interrupted ourconversation between us and our friend and started yelling at us for addressing our situation Eventually, she said we were donefor the night and closed our tab because we were talking to our friends and told them what happened to our orders. As one of thenew property owner in this town, I felt extremely violated. We felt our tone of our skin(brown l played a major part in thebartenders behavior. We don’t play race cards but that’s the only conclusion we could’ve possibly came up with for thebartenders behavior! ??????????? We couldn’t believe how we was treated in this place. The worst!! We are extremelydisappointed. ????????"

"Last night was no exception. Despite the restaurant buzzing with diners, including a celebrity group at the large round table beneath a whimsical mural of a giant octopus attacking a ship (I couldn't help but joke about enjoying one of its relatives as I waited for my appetizer), the atmosphere remained lively yet welcoming. Chef Mike oversees the kitchen with passion and creativity, making it a point to personally greet guests, often alongside his sous chef Sarah. Their visits feel like a warm addition to the dining experience rather than an interruption, and they are always eager to share insights about the dishes and their inspirations. You never know who might be dining nearby, adding to the restaurant’s charm. The “captain’s table,” known for its lazy Susan, was occupied by notable figures like actor/comedian Tate Donovan, AMD's senior vice president Forrest Norrod, and actress Sadie Sink, among others. They were enjoying their evening as we arrived and continued to do so as we wrapped up our meal. I started the evening with a delightful passionfruit cocktail, followed by Korean fried octopus and wild Hokkaido scallops that nearly made me swoon. The octopus was incredibly tender—best I’ve ever had—coated in a delightful sweet, savory, and spicy sauce that complemented it perfectly. Free of heavy breading, the octopus truly stood out. The scallops were cooked to perfection, accompanied by a potato strata, homemade blue potato chips, and a creamy sauce elegantly poured over the dish by our server. My companions enjoyed the yin yang roll, onion baddies (which I sampled and found indescribably delicious!), as well as the Long Island Duck and Fisherman’s Stew—all reported to be excellent. Chef Mike certainly excels at fusion cuisine! For dessert, we knew we couldn't hold back, as all desserts are made in-house by Sous Chef Sarah. We shared the Cherry Poppin' toffee pudding, carrot cake, and Rhubarb Rose. Unfortunately, due to a chocolate allergy at our table, we missed trying the Choc Daddy, but I fully intend to return soon to sample it. The Cherry Poppin’ offered a delightful twist on toffee pudding, using tangy dried sour cherries instead of the usual dates and brightening the dish with Meyer lemons in the sauce. The Rhubarb Rose was a visual masterpiece reminiscent of Willy Wonka: bright and colorful, built on a gluten-free almond cake layered with poached rhubarb, a rich vanilla-rhubarb mousse, lime streusel, and charming curls of rhubarb crisps. Absolutely delicious! The carrot cake was undoubtedly the best I’ve ever tasted, showcasing Chef Sarah's ability to deliver desserts that are nuanced and balanced—decadent yet never overly sweet—a perfect finale to a truly delightful meal shared with great company, all while overlooking a gorgeous view. Just go already! (However, if you dislike waiting, be sure to make a reservation, and for a quieter experience, consider visiting on a Thursday or Sunday.)"

"We started with a seafood salad that combined freshly squeezed citrus and olive oil with shrimp, crab, and calamari. It was incredibly fresh and had a delightful, refreshing taste. Next, we enjoyed a salad of baby arugula, dried cranberries, blue cheese crumbles, red onion, candied pecans, and sliced pears, topped with creamy balsamic vinaigrette. This was paired with skirt steak, which was cooked to perfection—again, very fresh and delicious. We also tried grilled Spanish chorizo and shrimp sautéed in garlic and olive oil, served over potatoes, and it was simply wonderful. The menu is small, but the daily specials are enticing. We definitely plan to return!"

"Let me preface this bad review by saying the food itself is delicious and is one of the things I miss. However we used to order here quite a lot though delivery and all was well. The one time I went to pick up my food in person I was made to wait about 10-15 minutes. No one was in front of me, as soon as another Spanish speaking customer/regular would come in they took their order before my own. This happened about 4 before I rose my voice and asked for my food. Which was ready and getting cold. I could tell I was getting the outsider look from the woman that worked there and they had no intention of helping or taking my order. Honestly I would've left had I not already paid, because clearly they did not want any part of my business when they saw me. No problem though when it's getting delivered. Regardless I wish them all the best but they lost a customer. Again the food is delicious(surf and turf is awesome)"

"I have been coming to this Carvel since I was a kid. Every birthday, celebration or Wednesday Carvel was the go to. After 20 years I had no complaints until about a month ago. Every Wednesday my family enjoys bogo sundaes. I order my four medium sundaes and try to place my order as simple as I can so there is no mistakes. Instead the employee rushes to try and memorize all of my four different sundae orders in her head. I completely understand feeling overwhelmed by a line but if this employee took their time, I would have no complaint or story to tell. I drive home open my cup and find missing toppings. I drive back considering I live local and politely ask for my topping that I ordered and paid for in a separate cup and TIP the employees anyways. The following week, the same employee messes up three of the four sundae orders again rushing to memorize my order. I again have to go back to the store for my missing toppings. The employee rudely greets me with a “yes?” I explain my order once again is messed up. Instead of owning up to her mistake, the employee responds “I didn’t know you wanted that”. First of all I was charged for it. Second I’ve been ordering the same order for the last 20 years I am 100% certain I ordered correctly. I respond to the employee “well the same thing happened last week with you”. To which the employee responds “I won’t serve you anymore”. That is A-OK with me considering I am the one who is going home disappointed week after week. My next visit the same employee hides in the back while I am ordering. The following week, a different employee who has nothing to do with the situation asks another employee to take my order. As this employee is making my sundae I hear her say “I feel like she’s watching me” about me to her coworker. What else should I be doing while I’m the only customer in the store waiting for my order? Close my eyes? I am very disappointed with the new staff and the immaturity. I know when I worked in the food industry/customer service I never would treat a loyal paying customer like this and my manager wouldn’t put up with it."
