    We waited 30 minutes to get a drink. Another 25 min for food. My shrimp Kabobs were salty and the Caesar salad was drenched in dressing. Steak other person went with had was decent.

    This was our first time at The social Inn and we really enjoyed it. Nice little bar at the back of the restaurant with really cool cut crystal glassware for drinks and good pours. Great selection of appetizers to share. We had the special seafood appetizer and it was delicious and a very generous portion. Two of us had the lobster bisque and it was very flavorful. Both the kebabs and the risotto were very flavorful and again large portions for the money we were too full to have dessert but the table next to us had a selection of desserts, and they all looked amazing. At the end of the meal, the manager came over, asked us about our meal. The four of us all agreed we would come back.

    The food, drinks and service was very good! The lighting feels like you’re at a breakfast place and the music was super loud. The open ceiling makes it very noisy. Some easy fixes to make this a really great restaurant.

    We went on a Tuesday night and it wasn’t crowded. We were able to pick which table we wanted to sit at. Our waitress was very attentive. I love the decor and ambiance! We ordered the warm spinach and goat cheese salad which was delicious. Our entrees were the chicken kabob and the white fish. Both were excellent. We will be going back!

    We waited 20 minutes to be asked if we wanted a drink. Wait staff inexperienced and overburdened. Manager did nothing to help staff. Service very slow; food mediocre. Large room with no ambiance. Quite loud. Won’t return.

    This place has been open for a few months. Looked great online and we were excited to have a new restaurant so close to home. Went for an early New Year's Eve dinner. First warning sign was that the restaurant was nearly empty. By the time we left around 7pm, the restaurant was only about half full. On New Year's Eve... The restaurant decor and ambience are wonderful, the wait staff were attentive. Cocktails were excellent. Then the food arrived... It was lackluster at best with small portions for the price. The beet mezze was decent but dry and could have used a dressing to tie it together. The mozz+feta cheese sticks were OK. My wife got the Cornish hen, which she said was extremely dry and nearly inedible. I got the cacio e pepe, one of my favorite pasta dishes. What I got was not cacio e pepe. It was spaghetti swimming in a milky liquid with clumps of cheese in it. This restaurant has a lot of potential, but the skill of the kitchen can't currently match the ambition (and price) of the menu.

    The warm goat cheese salad was delish. A variety of main courses from duck to salmon to pasta to filet to choose from. One of our group wanted a drink called a Paper Airplane, and they prepared it perfectly! We’ll be going back again!

    Food was good overall. Warm Goat cheese salad was delicious. Shareable “spreads” appetizer came with three tasty dips but only dry pita for dipping. Asked for crudités, agreed to pay “up charge” and got two tiny dishes of cucumber and carrots. Definitely not worthy for sharing. Service was substandard from beginning to end, really took away from the experience. Not an issue with lack of staff as this was later at night. Seemed to be acceptable

    Service was excellent, food came out quickly especially for a Saturday night and was delicious. Everyone started with the Spicy Paloma Signature Cocktail which was delicious. For Apps we had the Grilled Octopus, Calamari and Beet Hummus and the Mini Beef Kufte. I would order the Octopus every time, the Calamari had a light breading and was tender, not chewy. The Beef Kufte we thought was a bit dry but good flavor. Entrees ordered were Duck Breast Filet, Spiked Whitefish, Chicken Kabobs and Cacio e Pepe . Everyone enjoyed their entrees. Only thing I wish they had was Coffee or Espresso. We definitely will come back.
