Great Caesar salad for lunch. Server was excellent, too

So this week's "date night" was at J.B. Dawson's on the recommendation of a friend. We made a reservation for 8:00 p.m. and our table was ready on time. The ambiance was nice and it was dimly lit for dinner and the leather seats were pretty comfortable. The noise level was moderate with the occasional "loud laughing/talking guy" from a few tables over, but not too bad. Shortly after being seated we were greeted by our server Melissa, who was very pleasant, attentive and accurate throughout the evening. Actually, shout out to the whole staff as the teamwork was great. They did a great job of assisting one another and quick covered one another when there was a need.

My wife and I each had a bowl of the Lobster Bisque soup, and shared the pumpernickel loaf, buffalo wings, and caesar salad. The soup was pretty good and was clearly filled with lobster as meat was piled on top. The pumpernickel loaf was my fav (I love bread) and was served warm with a tasty maple butter. The buffalo wings were decent as they were breaded and tossed in the sauce. The caesar salad was decent as the lettuce was fresh and the croutons were clearly made in-house.

For our entrees my wife had the Shrimp & Scallops with the baked potate (loaded with everything except bacon). The shrimp and scallops were grilled to perfect and not overcooked. I appreciated that because I usually assume that all non-seafood specialty restaurants will probably overcook any seafood. I was surprised at how tender and buttery soft the seared scallops were. I had the BBQ Chicken & Ribs with Green Beans Almondine and French Fries. The chicken and ribs were grilled very well and tasted very smokey. The green beans were cooked very well with a snap but could have used some more salt. The shoestring fries were cook well but could have used a seasoning (or maybe just salt & pepper).

For dessert we share the cheesecake and the apple walnut cobbler with french vanilla ice cream. Both were equally excellent.

A nice dinner with our oldest daughter. Our waitress was phenomenal. Actually all of the waitresses that passed by our table were very upbeat and pleasant. Our food was delicious as always. From the tasty twisted shrimp to the crab cake & ribs, filet Oscar. Most definitely our Go to place

it was great. food could have been better, great service and good prices!! soup is very good

As always, great food and great service. Highlight was the ribs with their "kicked up" barbecue sauce. IMO the best ribs around.

Excellent as always

Our waiter was very nice, made sure we had everything we needed and that everything was okay! The food was excellent and we were seated on time for our reservation.

All the staff was very attentive and prompt. Food was delicious. We had the parmasean crusted chicken it was enough for two. It had three pieces of chicken. Chicken was flavorful and tender.

Amazing quality food and attentive friendly staff.

The food was good. The portions were smaller than when I had been there in the past

Once again a great meal!! Never have I been disappointed, the staff is knowledgeable and accommodating. And the food is consistently delicious, no matter if we a have salad, sandwich or platter. Thanks again for a great experience.

Wonderful…love Nancy

Amazing. Surprised us with dessert for our anniversary. Food is always amazing, and for the portion size and quality, the prices are great. Beautiful atmosphere and friendly staff.

We celebrated our Anniversary at JB Dawson’s. We have dined here many times in the past. Things were perfect once again. The service was awesome. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly. The food was very delicious and came quickly. I highly recommend this restaurant and I will be making reservations again soon.

Not the best night for the kitchen. We have frequented this Resteraunt many times and compared to past visits not up to par. The ribs were overdone and my side of creamed spinach was cold.

was tempted to give a 4 star bc my partner went in before me to hold the table as i was running a few minutes behind. ---point being, when I did arrive, the spokes person for the team of hosts ,,couldn't/wouldn't tell me where my date was seated. She suggested that I walk around, and look around at all the tables. I then asked for the manager, who is always a pro and he immediately suggested he would investigate,,which he did. I expect better service after having reserved a table a week in advance and received copious texts confirming same.
Beyond that, the event went much smoother, Austin was a great server, the food was lovely. Will return soon!

Great atmosphere, good food, wonderful staff always a pleasure to go there!

We knew Wednesday night would be crowed and it was. Service suffered as it was slow and our server was rushed but did her best. Food was good as always. We will return.

Friendly and efficient service and good food at a decent price

Jonathan the server is excellent. Owner was great. Ribs are best in Bucks.

Hope to see fresh berries n cream on menu. Also in winter banana cream pie and sugar free products.

As always the food and service was excellent. This was our third visit in 6 weeks. Never disappointed.

We were there for a birthday and I thought it was so nice that they held our cake we brought in until after dinner and then added a sparkling candle to it!

Excellent service and food!

Crab cakes were dry. Short ribs were salty. Very good service

The food was delicious, the service was great, and my aunt was thrilled/surprised with her complementary birthday dessert. It was a nice touch and a perfect ending.

We were a foursome of friends getting together after a lot of years apart. Our waitress Meghan was great letting us catch up and taking our time to order. Our food was good I had the grilled shrimp and it was good to perfection. The mozzarella salad as an appetizer was excellent which was shared by all. One person had the salmon and said it was cooked to her liking not to dry. The other two had sandwiches and had no complaints. Highly recommend this restaurant.

Reservation seating occurred without delay. Service was prompt and checked back regularly without being overbearing. The quality of food is consistently good.

Great service! Food was delicious!
