   We thoroughly enjoyed the Sunday Brunch! We were celebrating a 40th wedding anniversary with our family and had requested a nice view. Out table had an excellent view of the James River and the seating was quite comfortable and spacious. But what made the celebration was our waitress who was extremely personable, friendly, and informative when questioned about the menu. Janiya was terrific!

   Made a reservation at The Boathouse. Great choice from beginning to end. Very happy with outdoor seating overlooking James River. Lyndsey, our waitress, was excellent. The Sea Ghost was very satisfying and lived up to its name. Lyndsey eas so friendly and welcoming. So knowledgeable with the menu too.. Food and drinks were incredible. Good pace, relaxing. Atmosphere was excellent. Left very happy.

   My boyfriend and I love going to the Boathouse for Sunday Brunch however, today was a completely different vibe. After being sat for over 20 minutes, no ever came to our table to even greet or welcome us. There were all these groups coming in to the section we were at after us and all were tended to except us. Every server and it looks like even the manager kept walking by and looking down on us but never tending to my boyfriend and I, not acknowledging us, and at least assuring someone would be right with us. What made me upset is how we were getting looked at as if we aren’t their problem. We decided to just go to another restaurant.

   It was my birthday and had family and friends present. The evening was going great until time to close out the checks: the waitress confused the charges and the Manager intervened and that’s were the craziness started. It took him 20 minutes to figure it out and ruined my special evening in the process. No apologies but smart comments as we stated our disappointment over it taking him so long to figure it out.
