Our server was prompt, knowledgeable and friendly. We shared the truffle onion rings and enjoyed dinner salads with our cocktails. All very good. Dinner arrived almost too quickly, but was delicious. Husband had the Halibut, I had the mushroom ravioli. We recommend both. The noise level in the dining room was a bit energetic, but not terrible. Will certainly return for another Friday date night!

We had a very enjoyable meal here. My husband had the double cut pork chop and skinny fries, excellent. I had the mushroom ravioli with a delicious sauce. We shared a shrimp cocktail first, with 4 colossal shrimp. Our server (Kellie) was fabulous. Very efficient, personable, professional and overall terrific. The place tends to be noisy, so we were glad to be seated at a table for two in a corner. Free valet parking was greatly appreciated.

We appreciated the valet parking…very necessary in Lambertville on a Saturday night. We arrived early for our reservation and were seated immediately. If you don’t like extremely loud restaurants than avoid this place! Other than that we thought that the service was great and the food was very good. It’s not fine dining by any means. The food came out pretty quickly but again it was good! We had fun and would definitely return. It’s worth going to but not if noise level is an issue.

Service was excellent and food was delicious and cooked perfectly. Bartender pours a healthy drink- not complaining, that’s a positive. Don’t leave without having the carrot cake! Never had a better one. Noise level was high so it was hard to hear the waitress and my dinner partner but don’t let that stop you from enjoying this restaurant! It is fabulous.

Had a nice first experience at the Hawke on Friday evening. We had 8:15 reservations, and were seated right away at a nice table on the large outdoor patio. As it was very busy, it did take a while to get our drinks served, but that was quickly excused as they were excellent (wife ordered a French 75, which was not on the menu, and I had a bourbon Negroni. I highly recommend both! Our food order, and second round of drinks arrived timely. As for our meal, we started with the Calamari app which was excellent, 10/10, My wife had the seafood pasta special, which was a very generous portion with a nice mix of seafood and a flavorful light creamy sauce. I had the fillet mignon baguette sandwich with an upgraded order of Parmesan truffle fries (definitely worth the upgrade). I would have preferred the seeded baguette a bit toasted, but the meat was tender and tasty with the melted Gruyère and creamy horseradish sauce making a great combination. Although we had no room for dessert, our neighboring table had quite a few of the offerings, and enjoyed them all. One improvement I would recommend: While the outdoor patio is a very nice space The lighting was a bit harsh, especially the spot lights mounted on the trees. Some softer bulbs and perhaps some string lights would add to the ambiance. Our server was excellent, and the rest of the staff seemed friendly and hard working. We will definitely be returning.
