  The filet didn’t have much flavor. The cream corn was to die for, and the French fries were superb. I would visit again, and get something other than the filet. Nice atmosphere, ok service.

  Decided to come here for dinner based on all the positive reviews and was highly disappointed. From the moment we walked in until we left was a strange experience. The girl at the door looked annoyed that we walked through the door. She took us to a table right by a side door with the sun beating in so much we were pretty much blinded. The table was wobbly & sticky as well as the chairs. Mine felt like it was going to come apart any minute. The menus were raggedy, and the bottom part of mine was ripped off. No drinks were listed at all. The waitress brought empty glasses and started pouring water. While asking if we wanted anything besides water, she proceeded to overflow my glass and spill it all over me and the floor. She went and got napkins but never cleaned the floor up. Had to ask what drinks they had (non alcoholic) and she seemed annoyed to have to tell us. Any questions we had about anything she said "I don't know". The food was not good (especially the meatball), and the wait was entirely too long. We for sure will never be back.

  Stopped by Parker's Grille & Tavern for a late lunch, and overall the food was enjoyable. It was relatively quiet when we arrived, though it became noticeably busier about halfway through our meal. I ordered a burger, while my mom chose the fried haddock. We both enjoyed our meals, and she especially liked the coleslaw so much that we ordered an extra serving to take home. I also tried the key lime cheesecake for dessert. It was decent, but compared to some excellent cheesecakes I've had over the years, it left a little something to be desired. This easily could have been an 8.5/10 (B+) experience if not for a couple of significant issues. The biggest problem came at the end of our visit. When we were ready to pay and leave, our waitress was nowhere to be found. We were seated within eyesight of the bar and attempted to politely flag someone down, but had no success. I understand that the restaurant had started to get busier, but there appeared to be enough staff on the floor that customers waiting to pay shouldn't have been overlooked. We ended up waiting an additional 15-20 minutes longer than necessary just to receive the check. Then came the unexpected challenge of the afternoon: someone else's fish order. Another waitress walked by carrying a plate of it, and whatever species that fish once was, it apparently had one final act of vengeance left in it. The aroma drifted through the air and hit our table with enough force to nearly make us nauseous...TWICE! I've encountered plenty of seafood over the years, but this one was memorable for all the wrong reasons. To her credit, our waitress did apologize and offered us an order of coleslaw on the house, which was appreciated. However, by that point, we were more than ready to make our escape. The food itself was solid, but the lack of attentiveness toward customers who are clearly finished with their meals and ready to pay ultimately brought down what could have been a very positive experience. Final Score: 6.0/10.0 (C-)

  Really just all around over priced. Terrible cocktails, and food was way below average for the cost. Poor experience for first time and last time

  Food was really really great, our server was really nice and understanding considering we had a screaming baby and a crazy 6 year old. The food came out very fast for how much food it was and the smash burger I got was by far the best I’ve ever had. The atmosphere wasn’t amazing but honestly the food and service make up for it entirely. I will definitely be back.
