"Everything was delicious! But, my goodness the attention the staff paid was just the best. We had a reservation and ended up having to wait 15-20 minutes for our table, and they comped us a round of drinks for the inconvenience. Thank you for taking care of us! And, the live jazz on Saturday night was amazing!"

"The food is a tired menu from 1 1/2yrs ago. The same things were not as good, which makes me think they are using a sous chef to do the prep. I was here about 6 months ago and it was better but again the same food. Service was the biggest letdown. Previous service had a way of making the experience. This waitress was simply overmatched, and did not fit a quality dining establishment. What was worse was her annoying voice tone. Unfortunately she was the only service in the restaurant. along with an excellent busser who was here previously. Truly, he should be the server."

"I'm here twice now and every time was more incredible than the last. I didn't know what to expect when I first decided to dinate in the Saddle Room, but when I finished eating, I was glad I did. Its menu includes an impressive list of grilled steaks and chiffs, as well as pastas, salads and other entrees that combine well with their cocktails. To date, I had (and wildly recommend) the Warren Chop, who was one of the best pig hacks of my life, and their gourmets take on chicken and waffles. In addition to meals, they serve home made bread from the spent grains from their brewery, served with salted maple butter that is for to die. I wish I could tie all this together by recommending a favorite cocktail, but since I enjoyed them all I really didn't. All I can say is, choose everything on the menu, drink or eat wisely, and know that you will be very happy with your choice. My only criticism is that they tend to bring the bread with food if everything I really want is a never-ending supply because it is so good! Probably a smart decision because I would not have room for the rest of their delicious menu."

"We were so sad to have such a terrible experience with Carmellas. After a reservation two weeks in advance and confirmation that twice once a week and one day of our reservation, we were told that we would not want a reservation and would like to sit at the bar. After we told them no, we would rather not do it since we made a reservation two weeks before. I showed them our confirmation text. They're stuck in a back room at a terrible table! Our server was amazing at the beginning and was very sweet. Our cocktails were amazing and cudos to the bartender! But my steak was completely undercooked and my husband's prime rib was less than half inches thick. After waiting for 20 minutes for our check to be picked up, I went forward to see if he could do processes. He said no. When our server came back, it was short and unfriendly. I'm so sad. That was a bad experience. I love supporting Lincoln restaurants in anyway. However, this experience was less than expected for the price of meals."

"We loved our fresh raw oysters. Also loved the Small Plates of Orange Chicken and Szechuan Noodles—they were an excellent combination to share. The Fried Fish Curry was delicious. The Asian inflections here are always interesting and tasty. Recommend exploring the extensive Classic Cocktails Menu—lots of tempting choices for a change of pace. We love the ambiance and decor here. It does get noisy, but the liveliness is understandable. The staff are good people, but service is often rather slow, so more staff could be a plus."

"4 of us dined at Brown Dog on a Saturday evening. I had specifically asked if we could dine outdoors. There were many outdoor tables available. The host told me “possibly” when I asked about dining outside, but then we were seated indoors without any explanation. Here it was a beautiful evening be they stuck us in a dimly lit corner. Which would have been fine if it was the only table available but that didn’t appear to be the case. We weren’t too far from the kitchen and it was very loud. It sounded like trays of dishes were being dropped off every couple of minutes. The food was good, but not something we can’t wait to eat again."

"We love Litchfields. They’re making some changes with a new internationally acclaimed executive chef. We enjoyed fresh breads and muffins with an array of flavored butters. Be careful, save room for the tasty courses to follow. The charcuterie is full of choices. Cheeses and fine meats. Not to mention some delightful jams and spreads. A must have appetizer. The service at Litchfields has always been terrific. Super nice staff. tonight we had Holly, who made our dining experience that much better. She was well versed in the menu items and specials. She offered several options and all were just as she described. Especially that new Cowboy salad. This was a large salad for the plate. Only critique would be to serve it perhaps in a pasta bowl. because there was so much. Absolutely delish! Will have it again. They have expanded their already fantastic wine list. We enjoyed a bottle of 2018 Cade Cabernet Sauvignon. Though they have something for every price point. Even library wines. Priced properly. We enjoyed the pork chop. Fantastic! Perfectly prepared. I noticed from past experience here, the grill cooks ALWAYS get the temperature spot on. A testament to the kitchen’s professionalism that has been a key to this restaurant’s success. Others had the salmon special. Nice portion. Prepared grilled with a tasty sauce. Not overpowering. I enjoyed a steak as did another of our party. Again. Perfectly prepared. Sides. Amazing potatoes au gratin. Gouda cheese Mac and cheese. Honey carrots. Yum. We came on a Friday night, reservations are recommended. Enjoy"

"The food and wine, as always, were terrific. Our table was not the best as we were kind of jammed in a corner. The server was attentive and patient. The other couple arrived late and we spent a long time catching up before ordering. It was sweltering hot in the dining room at p.m. in early October and the place was very loud. This was the first time my wife and I dined out since the pandemic and is was a very satisfactory meal and experience. We'll be back for sure"

"We love M’tucci’s but things were a bit off last night. The service was rushed; we barely finish our appetizer when the plates were clumsily cleared away just as our entrees arrived. Then, one of the entrees was missing a component. We wanted a relaxing evening but felt like we were being hussled out, even though the restaurant was not full. On the plus side, our server was great and the manager recommended a great bottle of wine when the one we wanted was not available."

"Took 15 minutes to see waiter, not sure how look it would have taken had we not flagged down a wait staff for help. Tables are so close on one side of restaurant, one waiter when passing stuck his hand in our tortilla basket to keep his balance when going around the chair in the table next to us. The loss of the tortilla chips common years ago and now replaced with a few large tortilla chip disks which are dry and divorced of any flavor kill the desire to dip into the flavorful sauces. I will say that the margaritas on our visit were really good. Sad that this restaurant has gone from one of our favorite Mexican restaurants, to now one we may go to if convenient on a given day."

"This restaurant in a stand-alone building right on the lake with ample parking space and even valet parking. It's the perfect spot for a romantic dinner or a special celebration. The interior of Birch's exudes a cozy, clean, and tasteful decor that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. What truly sets it apart is the low noise level, allowing for intimate conversations and a relaxed dining experience. The staff is incredibly attentive, friendly, and well-versed in the menu. They provided excellent recommendations and made sure our dining experience was one to remember. Their dedication to making guests feel welcome is truly outstanding. Birch's offers a delightful fusion of American and Italian dishes, with an extensive menu featuring everything from succulent steaks to delectable seafood and fresh salads. We sampled a variety of dishes, and each one was a flavor explosion. The presentation is on par with upscale dining venues, and the portion sizes are incredibly generous; you definitely won't leave hungry. Birch's also boasts an impressive beer selection, and their cocktails are top-notch. The prices range from $30 to $50, which is well worth it for the quality of food and service you receive."

"We came here on a Friday for a date night for my husband's birthday (what they don't do?t any dessert or something for). We originally had a reservation, but then it died as we wanted to sit outside, they don't take reservations for the terrace. Unfortunately we have not yet been able to sit on the terrace because, how busy it was, what is understandable given the day/time we went. It was also a very overstimulating environment, but that is also understandable. We sat in you? It took 10 min for each server to see us at our table, but when the server came, he apologized for waiting. The server was pretty slow to come back every time, but I think he was new, so I can give him some mercy! He had a great attitude and we never saw him smile? The tables in the dining area were very close together.. So close that our backs touched the backs of those at the tables behind us, and we had to stand up to get them out of their chairs. For drinks? We got the Berry Crush cocktail that was great, not too much satisfying sweet without being straight sugar. We also had a Hazy IPA that was exactly what you expected for a Hazy. For Entrées? We have the Truffle Mushroom Flatbread and the Fried Chicken Sandwich. You were both very good? I'd get the flatbread again and again. It was not too oily and the flat bread itself was nice crispy without being too hard or soggy. The cheese/moushroom/bread ratios were great. I was able to finish all 2 discs on my own. The Fried Chicken Sandwich was also delicious, much better than we? ve had in other restaurants. It had a good kick, but it wasn't too sharp. The Koleslawin was subpar. The Fritten were also good quality Fritten. We had the Keylime Cheesecake for Dessert that we didn't finish? It was very sharp on the lime. It was also more expensive than Redstone?s Keylime Cheesecake, whose part is MUCH greater quality / taste is much higher. We wouldn't get it back. You also have free valet for all we didn't know before, but it's kind of confusing. There were also tables around us who had children who made very large fairs on the carpet. Obviously, the bus drivers cleaned the tables as soon as the families were left, but they did not seem to have any vacuums or brooms to clean the stacks of food from the carpet before the next groups were sitting. I would only expect a higher quality than those for prices here."

"This was our second visit and truthfully, it wasn't quite as good as the first! It was still really good though. I deliberately ordered the exact same choices as before, because I enjoyed them so much the 1st time around! Also because I have often felt that restaurants don't always live up to first impressions, so this was a bit of a test! I was hopeful that this one would and for the most part it did, with just a few little disappointments. I am still a fan though and will definitely go back!"

"Server was great, Drinks and appetizers were good, we decided to get our entrees to go and when we got home we were unpleasantly surprised. I?m not a big fan of being served blatantly raw chicken. Makes me wonder what else the kitchen is cutting corners on and messing up if something this obvious could come out. How can you cut into a raw breast, look at it, and still put it in a togo box with the salad and send it out?"

"We went before the theater, but there were no reservations prior to 6:15 PM and our play was at 7:30 so we were concerned that we would be rushed. We got there a little early and there were only two tables of other diners, so I have no idea why there weren't any Open Table reservations available before 6:15. That was the first red flag. Our server was nice enough, but there weren't any specials and nothing on the menu popped out at us. I ordered the brisket and it was full of fat. The gravy was gelatinous and unflavorful. My son ordered the Delmonico and it, too, was totally fatty. He probably had 3 bites that weren't full of lard. Totally gross. My other son got the scallops and liked the dish. Husband got the parppardelle and it had so many olives in it that the flavor overtook the dish. When we left, the place was nearly empty except for a few people at the bar. Also, we sat in the middle of the restaurant, not even by the door, and it was still drafty when the door was opened. Overpriced food that isn't very good. Don't make the same mistake we did, and go to Cowell and Hubbard or Cibreo before the theater."

"our first visit was on the afternoon during a heavy downhill ride and after that drive through numerous roadways to get to rochester, and after the check into our bait and switch hotel room, we needed a break. lightly occupied, we chose a high seat on the chair instead of the lounge area. this was a good choice, as it was calmer and offered a view of the rainstorm. some cerle in a wheelchair smoking a zigarette parked right in front of us for a past we thought was strange. other than that, we enjoyed a Chilean sea bass and fruita de mare with large grilled garnels for dinner together with a bottle malbec, kreml brule and scotch dessert. the next afternoon we returned for a few drinks, but on a Saturday afternoon we were understaffed and I had to tell the food server how to make a gin martini. they did not wear tanquery gin. Friday is the best, Saturdays, not so much."

"Love the brunch menu and food was good... i added sausage to the Bolongese...$10... when it finally arrived, everyone in our party was done, and my Bolongese cold, it was sliced and a really small portion... for $10 add on, i'd expect a decent portion... no one offered to get me a fresh Bolongese which i of course wanted to add the sausage to. Issues happen everywhere...it is a matter of how a nice restaurant handles issue when they arise. FYI they did not charge me for the sausage...maybe that is why the portion was so small? Regardless, we have been before a few times, and we will be back. Food is great... this is the 1st time we had a situation."

"Anniversary, married years. Arrived min early and was seated right away. The table was beside the bar and not very romantic. Noticed a table along the balcony with more comfy seating. My wife inquired if we might be reseated to that table, and the hostess was able to accommodate us. Very nice table, no bar noise, made our toast much more pleasant. Our waiter Fernando was quite efficient and got our bar orders timely. We ordered our meal, I had the grilled fish tacos, they were excellent. My wife had the smoked fried chicken, a bit dry and not piping hot, would not reorder in the future The restaurant gifted us a wonderful desert, had the sweet Cream pie and buttermilk ice cream, it was great and capped off our charming evening"
