    The staff was top notch. Our server was attentive but not pushy and very nice. I had the scallops and they were cooked perfectly but overall the dish was good not great. The LED lighting made the atmosphere feel a bit cold. I would try the restaurant again but not go out of my way.

    We eat out a lot. The dinner for 3 at Grove left us less than happy; we have been there many times. The bruschetta flatbread was weak with hardly no tomatoes that were diced so finely that they were over powered by everything else going on. Skip it. The grouper cakes were good but embarrassingly small . The prime rib sandwich left me wondering if it was anything more than sliced roast beef. The pea risotto was more like rice and peas, obviously cooked long ago with little to no moisture/sauce remaining. The pistachio snapper was obviously frozen ( which was admitted up front) and mealy. The cost of it was more in line with fresh fish. The happy hour drinks were significantly different from the non happy hour version and left us disappointed. Gonna be putting Grove on time out for a while.

    Stan, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re truly sorry to hear that your recent visit didn’t meet expectations, especially as a returning guest. We’d like to clarify that all of our fish—including the snapper—is filleted in-house and delivered fresh. We're not sure where the confusion arose, but we're committed to transparency and accuracy when it comes to our ingredients. Our General Manager has reached out to you directly to discuss your feedback in more detail, and we genuinely appreciate the opportunity to connect with you further.

    We had reservations and were greeted by a tiny young girl who had a problem smiling. This was not our first time there. In the past I usually stuck with salads which are hard to mess up. However, I was disappointed with our appetizer and meal. Our waitress, Liz was pleasant. She did have quite a a few other tables, which may have distracted her a bit. We ordered a bruschetta flat bread which the crush was over cooked and crunchy. It was not what I expected. As for my grouper sandwich it was okay. It didn’t have the tartar sauce on it, and was a bit salty. I did ask side of asparagus was slimy. We didn’t complain since our waitress ~ she was very sweet and trying her best. I can only give it 3 starts for this reason and not sure I will be back.

    I just got home from my Fathers Day Dinner. We had decided to try the Grove out for somewhere new and close to home. We arrived with what we were going to have preplanned from the Webb site menu. Server promptly arrived at table and brought water and proceeded to take our order, We had planned on a appetiser. My wife saw the happy hour signage on table so asked in which caption Calamari was included in and was told that Happy Hour was cancelled due to the holiday even thou the signage stated hours included our dinning time. We had already ordered beer and kept it but I told her that the Happy Hour Signs should not be on the tables with special pricing if they were not honouring it so I canceled the dish. Salad and soup arrived promptly delivered by an expediter. Bread was not offer so I ask him it it came with the meal, he said yes and returned with it. Dinner was delivered. Our Prime Rib meals. The only knife we had was our table knifes. The waiter came by and said let me get you steaks knifes for that. After delivering them she (Kiara B) disappeared. The knife she brought we duller than the table knife and impossible to cut. I stoped another server and ask, she replace the with others and apologised.. The bigger problem was the meat was very tough. When the bill came I told the server why we ate so little and ask if the meat was USDA Prime or Choice, I suspected choice due to the lack of marbling throughout the meat. She said she had no Idea but would ask the manager, I paid the bill but no answer. I flagged down the manager after he had a friendly chat with the table next to us. Showed him the meat and and told him my feeling were it is either choice meat or improperly prepared. He stated that the meat grade was prime it was probably improperly cooked it is a holiday. He said he wished we had brought it to his attention earlier he would have made it right buy now he just hoped we would come back and give your restaurant a second chance.
