   very friendly staff. Cheese curds were definitely not worth the money. They were mainly big balls a dough with very little to no cheese in some. We watched multiple walking and get seated but then leave because of lack of service to them. The place definitely has potential but there needs to be some major work on the service part.

   We ate on the patio and it was amazing! It took awhile to get our food and drinks but the staff was very friendly and attentive just really busy! Once we got our food it was great! We would definitely try it again as it was our first time there.

   Our dining experience started out rocky, we asked our server to come come back in a couple minutes so we could look at the drink menu, after 15 minutes she still wasn't back , luckily the bar manager noticed and came over to take our drink order, the bar manager took care of us the rest of the time. She saved our dining experience!! The food was good but a little pricey, we would go back I think?? We were leary about going here because of the negative reviews about the service.

   We made a reservation to sit outside and they were able to accommodate. If they didn't have one ready, we were willing to wait at the bar. Pretty nice atmosphere outside, perfect temp with a slight breeze with the sun behind some clouds. We were in no rush so it was perfectly fine for us to be there much longer than what a meal would usually take. The new "normal" is for service to be a bit slower everywhere, so if you want quicker service, know what you want for drinks, apps, and dinner. We selected each at intervals, and while the time to get our food was a bit long, it was fine. Service was great! The server and bus people were helpful and friendly and there was a host going around to ensure everyone was doing well. The food was made fresh, all our entrees were tasty. Halibut, tuna, and pasta were all very good and not overpowered by sauce and salt. The veg was done well and not over seasoned. They also knowledgeable about gluten free options they had listed and what they could sub to make certain things gluten free. But, take care if you're GF to know the hidden gluten stuff just in case. Dessert was very good, but also very filling. The strawberry cake was soft and sweet. Prices were a bit high for fish that was probably frozen, but again, made well and made fresh were what tipped this over to 5 star versus 4. Get the ceviche!

   I had to keep in mind they had a staffing shortage, but we spoke with the waitress and she said they were opening the outdoor bar this weekend if all went good with some new hires this week. Our waitress ran her butt off to keep her customers drinks full. It was a beautiful night and the band kept us entertained until our food came out. Everyone had there specialty cake for dessert and said it was just OK. I'm gluten-free so I skipped it and asked the waitress if they would consider more gluten-free options on their menu for us gluten-free folks. Overall, pretty good for a start and I would definitely go back! If anything the outdoor patio just to have a drink or two and enjoy the view.

   Prices are high for the area. The food was okay, but none of it was worth the price. All the workers were kind. Live music was good but a little too loud to talk to each other. They allow outdoor reservations online but when we got there they said that's a mistake and our table was given away. First come first serve for outdoors. Outdoor bar is closed due to low staffing.

   Started out at the bar waiting for our dining companions. I tried the espresso martini and it was DELICIOUS! When our friends arrived, we were seated outside on the patio. They have a great outdoor space and the weather was beautiful. They had a good band playing, although it was a bit loud where we were seated. We had four different entrees - ribeye, cod, and two of the pasta entrees. All were great! Veggies and potatoes offered with the ribeye and cod were cooked perfectly and delicious. Everyone enjoyed their meal!! We will definitely have dinner here again!

    We enjoyed a Friday night out on the patio. The Isco was ok but the male vocals did not stay on tune. We enjoyed the food including the shrimp ceviche and the chicken sandwich. Would definitely return

    With a table of 8 (including a few infants) a wide variety of food was ordered. All was absolutely fantastic! The hostess was prepared for our large group and our server was very attentive and professional. Of course we will be back often and we highly recommend The OC to all.

    Really excited to try it out. Used to go when it was Fratellos. Outdoor seating was nice. Service took long time. Drinks were slow. Bartender was new and not very experienced. Our waitress was pleasant and nice… things just took a while. Waitress didn’t know how to split a check on the system. Needs some training. It’s new, could be some staffing issues with how every restaurant is now. 2 out of the 4 meals were good. Salmon overcooked. BBQ pizza good, Halibut good, shrimp pasta…sauce was odd. Will try it again but need some time to work out the kinks.

    Brook was a very personable waitress. Bartender made a great lemon drop martini, so good I had two. Food was slow getting to the table and the place only had about 8 to 10 tables occupied. The table of 4 seated after us and next to us received their food about 15 minutes before us We made reservations but didn’t need to because there was hardly anyone there. Employees were friendly and if the weather had cooperated we would have sat out side. We will be back though. Love the location and the food was good.

    Got two raw salmons in a row. We just left not a place I will ever go again. Would recommend to avoid this place at all costs. Unless you like cooks that can’t cook. Can’t see this place lasting.

    Overall Everything was good. Pizza was a disappointment though. Considering there's a brick oven in house pizza should have been amazing. It needed to be cooked longer and was very doughy. I Had a gluten free pasta dish that was really good and plentiful. Our server was very nice and attentive.

    Food was good though quite expensive for salad, as compared to other places that are as good or better. Our server did not know much about bar offerings, stating she doesn't drink, and didn't bother to check on our questions. We'll go back for drinks, when the outdoor bar is open, but probably won't be ordering food.

    We had a BBQ chicken pizza to share for 2. It was delicious. Sweet and tangy. It was filling and we took most home. I like when the server takes our food and boxes it away from the table. It’s classy. Even for pizza! I loved my cucumber mule cocktails!

    We chose to eat inside because we had someone who was not as mobile as they could be. We had a wonderful waitress by the name of Emily. We had never been to the restaurant before and asked many questions about the food, and she answered everyone as truthfully as she could. We ordered cheese curds as an appetizer, as suggested by Emily, and we loved it. The wait staff was quick at delivering our drinks, appetizers and meals. It is a family run business and all of the people who work there are polite and happy people, which is wonderful! I would definitely recommend it and I will go there again and again.

    We wanted to try this restaurant because of the buzz. The atmosphere was great. Live band was great out on the patio. I know it’s a new restaurant but service was a little slow. Drinks were extremely slow. Our waitress was incredibly nice and apologized for the wait. It was the bar that was slow. The food came out in a timely manner. I would suggest the kitchen needs to have a expediter to check the food before it goes to the table. My husbands burger had none of the ingredients that made it the burger-in fact it technically wasn’t even a burger that was on the menu. It was very very well done and he ordered medium. I got the Ahi Tuna which I know is always a risk to get. The Tuna Steak was very well done. It said “seared” but it was not. Also I got the Tuna because I wanted the Lime sauce-it didn’t have that on top. It just seems like someone isn’t checking to make sure the plates have all the pieces before it’s sent out to the floor. I would love to go back and get drinks but might wait a while before I order food again. We had the burrata pizza as an app-that was the best part of our meal.

    I tried the bacon chicken sandwich. The bacon wasn’t crisp, no avacado cream sauce, and mushy fries. Server noticed I didn’t eat anything and I explained my concerns. Nothing was done but “I’ll let the kitchen know. My wife has the blackened chicken pasta and the pesto cream sauce looked like paste and the chicken was really dry. $100 later and still hungry. Super disappointed

    We followed Gabe, the owner, from a restaurant he ran previously. He did an outstanding job there training his staff, and serving great food at a reasonable price. He is doing a slow opening to not overwhelm the staff so he can provide his usual great service. They will be serving food and drinks on the deck soon and will be having entertainment on the deck as well.
