We eat here a lot. Always good food/service. We go on Thanksgiving (you know, for the Standard Thanksgiving dinner they advertised all over the place?). Get there and order just that. Get food and it looks like it was thrown on the plate in a prison line, and none of us (3), had stuffing/dressing. Wait 10 minutes to spot our server, mention it to her. She takes another 10 minutes to come back and tell us they ran out? Would you like something else? What? 1. It’s thanksgiving for gods sake. You charge me 35.00 for a Thanksgiving Turkey dinner, then run out/don’t serve one of the main ingredients, and best yet your server says NOTHING until we mention to her. Guys, it was 5:30 in the afternoon. Who the hell is running your kitchen? I should have known better…

I've been to Bridges several times and almost always, the service has been quick, friendly, efficient and the food has been excellent. This visit, the service was quick, friendly and efficient. My shrimp and grits was excellent. This was Thanksgiving and two of my other dinner guests got the Turkey Dinner Special. When they went to order, they were told that the kitchen was out of stuffing, which was quite a disappointment to my guests and while I get that it is difficult to always order/prep the correct amount of food, I feel like if you are serving a Turkey Plate dinner special on Thanksgiving, you should make extra, just like we do at home. :) But, that could have been ok but both plates came out not hot. As in room temperature or tepid temperature as my guests told me later. One guest is always picky about her food not being hot enough (and giving thanks here that for once, she did not complain to the server), but when my boyfriend also told me that it was barely warm, after we'd left, I know it was cold. Drinks were great, desserts were amazing (got the whiskey cake and the blondie) and again, service was wonderful. All in all, a good visit.

Great waitress! Great views. You could tell they were turning out tons of Thanksgiving meals because they came out quickly. Given that the meal was on slightly warm, I could imagine that the individual food was kept under heat lamps and tossed on a plate together when a meal was ordered. Definitely not made to order.

Sat us in the smallest table for 2 we’ve ever seen. Waitresses kept walking by the table as we seemed to be sat in a pathway. Left after two drinks to have dinner elsewhere. Won’t return avoid this place especially during the cold months.

The martini contained too much vermouth. The waitstaff were uncertain about milk content in their standard appetizers. Asked for no ranch or blue cheese with the wings, it came anyway. The person who delivered the two appetizers never said anything, never asked who ordered what, just left the dishes and walked away. Expected better service

We were greeted the moment we walked into the door to the time we walked out. The staff were all very friendly and very attentive.! Drinks along with oyster and shrimp cocktail appetizers came out quickly and were delicious. Our dinner came pretty quickly as well and my husband enjoyed this tuna special. I had a steak Cesar salad that was just ok since the steak wasn’t a very good cut of meat and a bit overdone but the Cesar dressing was fantastic! We each enjoyed yummy desserts as well!

We have been going to Bridges for years...it is at the top of our list of restaurants, and will remain there. We have always enjoyed the variety and quality of the food. The setting, especially in warm weather, is very nice and we sit outside whenever possible. We were there last night with another couple and we were seated at a table for four toward the side of the dining room that overlooks the outside seating. The restaurant wasn't anywhere near being full but it was so noisy, especially from a nearby table with a large group that the four of us had difficulty hearing each other. We would hope that the noise level can be dealt with in some manner.

My friends had pizza and they commented how delicious they were. I had the caesar salad with grilled chicken. Very large portion. We sat outside and watched the sunset on the bay. It was lovely all around. Our waitress was attentive but not overly attentive. I would give her a 4 stars. Highly recommend.

Our visit to Bridges was mixed. When I made the reservation online, the link asked if it was a special occasion and I said it was (Anniversary). There was a place to make a special request so I asked for a water view table. When we arrived a few minutes before our reservation time the hostesses were very unfriendly to the point of rudeness. Neither made any effort to greet us. One of them took us to a very ordinary table in the middle of the room. I told her we had requested a water view and pointed to another table not far off that was empty. She seemed annoyed but took us over to the other table. A couple who had a table right at the window finished up shortly after we were seated. If the hostesses had consulted with the wait staff they could have asked us to wait a few minutes for a table right at the window. But they did not…. Our waiter was stellar however and provided us with excellent and friendly service. I am sorry that I cannot remember his name. Our food was good but definitely not great. I thought my husband’s steak was a little tough and my scallops had an odd strawberry glaze that just didn’t fit scallops somehow. The scallops came on a bed of risotto but there were no side veggies. There was a Smith Island cake on the special’s menu which sounded delicious but the waiter regretfully told us that the cake had already sold out. The other dessert offerings were unexciting so we passed on dessert. The views were beautiful and we enjoyed ourselves but we got the sense that this restaurant relies too much on the beauty of the setting and not on the quality of the food.

Our monthly book club met at your restaurant for lunch and discussion of our book. We had outstanding service from a lovely young lady and want to recognize her for her being an outstanding Waitress. She was perfect in every way, we could not have had better service from such a pleasant person. A smile and kindness to us all. Thank you Chassitty for your outstanding service. And we all agreed the food was outstanding and such a nice assortment to enhance any meal. Thank you and we plan to come back often. Sallylee Hunter

Kitchen service was timely- the food presentations were great and enhanced the culinary experience. Desert ( vanilla creme brulee topped iff a wonderful meal. The price was well below what i expected. $55/ head for dinner/ wine and desert we will definitely come back

I ordered the Scallops over a Bed of Risotto drizzled with a strawberry sauce. It was Excellent in every aspect. My wife had the Shrimp stuffed with Crab Imperial . It too was Excellent! Our server was Lilly, her recommendations were Right On. She was there when we needed her and respected our privacy when needed. We celebrated a Wedding Anniversary. They gave us a complimentary dessert of our choice. We chose the Lemon- Berry pound cake that did not disappoint! Memorable Night! Well done!!
