    I have eaten here several times before and had a great experience. Tonight was an exception! The service was extremely slow, the Veal Milanese was over cooked and the gin martini was overpriced.

    I wanted to love this place with the wonderful reviews. Maybe we just caught a bad day but the food was tasteless. I had the French Dip and it had no seasoning. The calamari overcompensated with salt. We ordered the lobster mac which looks nothing like the pictures and was very small. And the crab cakes are small and definitely frozen. Our bill for 2 was $142. We knew this going in clearly with prices from the menu but overall we will not return due to the quality of food. I’ve had better diner meals. And there is absolutely no brunch at all. Do not come if brunch is your reason. We asked the hostess when brunch is and she said “sometimes”. I hope you have a better experience.

    Outstanding food and service. Our server went above and beyond for us. At dessert, she came out and said the creme brulee was sold out. My wife LOVES their creme brulee. I told our server that she was looking forward to the creme brulee all weekend. She said, "Give me a minute." Then proceeded to come back with one for my wife. We were taken aback. To go out of her way to make my wife's Mother's Day dinner complete was extremely appreciated.

    Came here for a graduation lunch and the food was just ok. Burgers were under cooked and the prime rib was way too rubbery. Lobster bisque soup wasn't bad but I've had better soup. Very over priced for food that was below average

    Worst experience! The cocktails were terrible and I mean terrible. We had a party of three and each one of us had a horrible one. The first drink was a cosmo but not on their cocktail list so we thought that was the issue, ordered off the list for the second and it was worse! The old fashion was anything but, these are standard cocktails but not one was even remotely good. If you go order beer or wine. As for food, that wasn’t the greatest either, the pork chop was both undercooked and over cooked at the same time. It’s like they forgot to flip it 😣. The other meal was duck and wouldn’t try it again. Probably one of the worst experiences of going out we had in a while. The servers were friendly and that was probably the only thing that kept us from leaving when the drinks were so bad.

This restaurant is anything you want it to be. A night out with friends. Or a place for a special occasion. I highly recommend it.

    Everything about the powerhouse is great except for the prices. I got a french dip with truffle fries and it was $30.00! Again I really enjoy everything else about the place, it is just overpriced.

    It had been years since I was at the. Powerhouse. Invited friends to join me , we’ve Had the best experience ever! Absolutely phenomenal food!!!! Have been to many upscale restaurants throughout the country as well as the chefs table on several cruises. This by far was the best!!!!! We all got something different to eat, and everyone was more than satisfied. My friend could not say more about the spring toast. Top notch service and top notch food ! Very highly recommended !

    Enjoyed a great Easter Sunday lunch with family at The Powerhouse Eatery! The service was fantastic; friendly, smiles, checked back often. The food was likewise great though it took a bit longer than normal given the packed house. It allowed the family to enjoy visiting, however, and was not a factor in our overall experience at all. This is a unique atmosphere in an old powerhouse and is well worth the trip to enjoy a unique experience.
