   The food is always super. I didn't care for the cheesecake too much but the sorbet is amazing. This place is consistently amazing!

   Happy Hour Oysters $1.00 each brings us there. Not only are they inexpensive but very delicious Blue Points. Then we had dinner and we all ordered lambchops which were very delicous! The owner was amicable to our requests and quite personable. We have been there for oysters before and will return for happy hour and dinner.

   Very good food with generous portions, friendly and excellent service. Cozy place where tables are close and one may hear tabletalk. Happy hour specials at bar only.

   I gave the customer service the lowest rating because I think they can do better with being more attentive and at least a little excited to have you dine and/or cocktail with them. I think the guy behind the bar when I initially got there is the manager- he seemed very apathetic about what was going on. Not very engaging and took a while for him to come over- although at the time I was the only person at the bar. The waitress was very average as well. She was nice. However, not very attentive didn't come over to see if we needed anything else or refill our "unlimited" brunch drinks. Odd. The food was very good so kudos to the chef! The infused vodkas also extremely good and great happy hour price. The Ambiance is cool with out door and indoor cozy seating. Nothing to brag about in terms of the decor. Overall a C+ for service and B+ for food and ambiance.

   The service was great. Seated right away without confirming reservation, drinks and appetizers were out quickly. Calamari was nice and crispy. Entres took quite some time. Ordered the lamb and asked for medium well and it seemed rare. Had to eat around it. If your going here for lamb, might as well go to Outback. Other than that the other options on the menu were great.

   Terrible service, we kept being rushed, even though the restaurant was almost empty. They are not properly trained to wait for all diners at the tale to finish their appetizers before crowding the table with the entree. Also, bringing the bill without asking for it is rude as well...as is getting orders mixed up between the 3 occupied tables...quite laughable.

   I was seated before my friend arrived, which was nice. Some places won't do that. the service was above average and the brunch selections were a little different than the normal fare. My friend and I were left to sit and chat for quite a while. I would definitly go back for happy hour oysters

    I used a Groupon on this visit to the Grill, the experience was fantastic and with every penny. We order from the grill frequently. I love the seafood pilaf. It wasn't on the Groupon menu but one of my faves the buratta is. The pappardale pasta is fresh. Dessert options are great. I really love the Grill Groupon or not.
