I don't know how this place can only have a 4.0 when it well exceeds a 5 and then some!!!!!…read more The food- absolutely delish and not overly done with flavors that literally burst with flavor and freshness! The shishito peppers were so sweet and tangy in the bacon jelly and cheese and oozed with goodness! The steak and chicken were such a great combo to share between my husband and I with both being such different profiles of taste and actually complimented one another. The steak itself was absolutely perfect and the bread under soaked up all those juices so you didn't have to lick the plate after (great ingenuity when dining out :)) The desserts were fantastic but the star of the show was def the raspberry blondie. It was everything I imagined and more. The perfect sweet and tart mixed in a bowl with spoons ... thank you for not plating this - I felt like I was at home about to sit on the couch and indulge in something I created. Perfect experience, perfect presentation and to top it off their restaurant is surrounded by their farm. Tomatoes, jalapeños, peaches, peppers, micro greens, greens, herbs..... with everything going on today in this world and every thing being recalled this is a place I can stand behind doing it the right way! Service the phenomenal, food was perfection and atmosphere was next to none.... Thank you so much for such an amazing dinner out!

Too much of a good thing? Very cool place and nice thought behind the sustainable farming/sourcing…read moreand such. My meal was good, not great. Wagyu flat iron with rice and teriyaki sauce. Unfortunately did not come with any sides or veggies. The steak was medium rare, but a bit stringy. No big deal. Our server was professional but so very quiet. I'd like to come back and try something that includes their products grown in-house. Lastly, the dry Irish nitro stout was one of the better I've had! They brew well and I'd like to come back.

I am sad to hear all the complaint's out about ACE, I have been going to the store on Lake for 35…read moreyrs, I don't get to go like I used to because I am disabled but I will say in all these years I HAVE NEVER EVER even once had a rude employee. things are very hard right now and tough for EVERYONE. Businesses have new young employees that have their own problems with families, school, and many fears that seem to have no where to find the answers. Mgrs. are just trying to keep their doors open to feed their families and help their customers and employees and pay some bills before the bank forecloses. It might be a good time to practice a little of the four letter word that Jesus did when he was mistreated. you remember that word don't you?? L O V E!! he had some other pretty good ones as well, like kindness, patience, When people are rude or use filthy language likesome of you did today ,it's usually because they are hurting? maybe you can relate ??? it sounds like you need a hug as well. As for the masks, remember they are to protect "YOU" so if the other guy isn't wearing one , just make sure you are!!! You'll be fine. I read a couple of sentences from a book that helped me when I was wondering why others were treating me bad one day, and it sure helped me. ,maybe it could do the same for you if you tried it, it goes like this, be ye kind one to another, tender hearted full of mercy. The next time you are feeling like you do today, try looking in the mirror, there's somebody looking back at you that could use a tender word or a donut from Krispy crème, or even just a compliment thanking them for being there for you. Why not try paying it forward? It worked pretty well for Jesus . Just try to remember, it takes but a moment to make some ones day . but you can ruin their day just as quick. so which one do you want to be remembered for? I would like to leave you with a challenge, every morning when you get ready to get up but don't feel like it, ask the Lord to help you do what he would for at least 3 people during that day. and then go out LOOKNG FOR THOSE 3 PEOPLE AND "DO" it. Then just before you get in bed that night look back over the day and remember how you felt when you used the help he gave you!! Remember , love is an "ACTION WORD". AND WHEN YOU APPLY THAT ACTION "GODS WAY", IT WILL BRING BACK A SMILE TO YOU. AND THE ONE WHO IS LOOKING BACK FROM THE MIRROR ALL OF A SUDDEN LOOKS PRETTY GOOD. SO SMILE , CAUSE SLEEP AND REST IS COMING YOUR WAY, THANKS TO "JESUS".

I had a very disappointing experience at this Ace Hardware location. I drove over 30 minutes to…read morereturn several unopened tools that I had ordered through DoorDash. I brought both the original store receipt and the DoorDash receipt, and the original receipt clearly stated--in large print--that the items could be returned to any Ace Hardware location. The employees at the register, who looked like two teenage boys told me they didn't know how to process the return and simply said they couldn't help me. They made no apparent effort to ask a manager, look up the procedure, or find a solution. Instead, I was sent away without any assistance. I ultimately had to call Ace Hardware's corporate customer service and file a formal complaint to receive my refund. I understand that not every employee will know how to process every type of transaction, but good customer service means making an effort to help the customer or finding someone who can. Unfortunately, that didn't happen here. What should have been a simple return turned into a frustrating ordeal that wasted over an hour of my time.

Ace's paint department alone is reason enough for me to repeatedly come back. I paint. A lot. I've…read morenever lived with the same colors for more than 3 years. To me that would be like wearing the exact same style every season. I used to go to paint stores or superstores to get my paint. I would have to stand in long lines, waiting my turn with contractors and painters. Then I discovered that I could purchase Benjamin Moore paint right here. I've never had to wait. I'm out the door in just a matter of minutes. No more trekking clear out to Rt 59 or waiting in line behind pros who are there to pick up their 20 gallons of paint. I've never even waited in line at all here. But paint aside, 1) They always have what I need, whether it's soil, plants, pots, parts, rakes or picture wire. 2) The store is very convenient to shop since it isn't a mega store. --I don't walk by isles and isles of lumber, carpet, bathtubs and bidets just to buy a screw driver. 3) Excellent customer service. I don't think I've ever been in there for more than a minute before someone asked me if I need help with anything. This Ace Hardware feels very "small town" in the sense that they still maintain a friendliness and act as though they know you personally. Something that just isn't seen often anymore.

Inconsistently stocked, but just absolutely horrible management and staff. 10 people in line,…read morecashier begging for help, no one to be found. Two other employees just strolling around while we all sit here for 20 minutes.

Purchased engineered hardwood flooring for installation. installers showed up on time. Before…read morethey looked at the subfloor, they said may need to sand it. Okay, maybe an extra $200. They removed the old carpet and found out from the office it would be $588 more. Well now I'm stuck with no floor. That much extra cost for an extra hour of work? Called the Home Depot complaint line twice and was told I have to deal with the store. Called me back once with voicemail. Called them back and was told they would check. Been over a week with no contact. Probably won't by any flooring products from them again.

Purchased 7 boxes of vinyl planks the arrival dates they told me were off by a week. The molding…read morepieces shipped a week after those. I called them to verify they were there at the store when I went to pick them up only five boxes were there. I went home called them a couple days later when they said the other box would ship, they said those boxes were there. I went there to pick them up and those boxes were not there. I had to go back a third time to finally get the boxes when I got there, they had no idea where the packages were and It took an hour for them to find them. They only use one installer for the floor. I had booked the installer they use and had to reschedule the installer for another date. I booked an appointment and on the morning of the appointment the flooring company they contract with canceled. So you're telling me they only have two guys for all of Home Depot to do flooring installs? Plus they couldn't reschedule me for the same day. The entire experience is horrible. Home Depot may offer some deals here and there and products here and there, but their service and their follow-through and customer service is horrendous. The GS flooring company I would not recommend but that's the only flooring company Home Depot uses. So unfortunately now you're stuck they've got your money and you have no recourse at this point. Customer Service has gone down the hill. No one cares about their jobs anymore. They fleece the American public in general. The American people get screwed over by corporations. Then they respond apologizing yada yada yada put some link below for you to fill out a Webform and you can't even click on it to enter any information. It's all a bunch of BS.
