My entree came with mashed potatoes, buttery and creamy, and I ordered asparagus as well. The food was superb! My hubby ordered a seafood pasta dish that he loved! They also have fan favs like burgers, fried shrimp, crab cakes, fish & chips, ribs, sandwiches and more! The menu offers so many tasty dishes, I want to come back to try more!! We ordered a red wine with dinner and it complimented the food well! Our service was excellent and the prices match the quality and quantity of the menu! We are planning a visit soon because the parking and location in Chester makes this an easy spot to enjoy!!

Drinks: Majority of the party enjoyed fresh lemonade while my boyfriend and I enjoyed cocktails. Me: Flight of the Bumblebees- this was a refreshing summer drink My boyfriend: Tiger's Eye. Perfect bourbon flavor Food: The cornbread was our least favorite, really dry and lacked taste. Fried oysters- these were divine! Lightly seasoned and fried well. The remoulade and house pickled carrots, pickles, and onions added a fresh touch to the dish. My dish: Pasta Bolognese. This was AMAZING! All of the flavors that you'd look for in a well prepared Bolognese. I was thoroughly pleased Other dishes: Special: Steak with glazed rainbow carrots and stringed beans. The steak had a little too much salt but it was prepared well and the rainbow carrots were amazing Chicken tenders and fries for the little one. They loved it lol Bone in pork chops: I was told that this was incredible from start to finish Overall, we had a great dining experience and appreciate the staff for accommodating our large party during a graduation celebration.

We had tried to make reservations for a group visiting from out state but were not allowed to by the reservation. Should have taken this as a sign that groups are clearly not wanted nor welcome when arriving. The staff tried everything they could to make it an unpleasant experience once they were assured of an automatic 20% gratuity. Petty things, such as forbidding the movement to another table out of the sun, when there were many other tables available. I left early after being chastised for loving a chair but the family decided to stay. They shared that the crappy service continues the entire time they stayed. Those that are reported that the food was fair at best. Not sure that this sorry excuse for service is a great business model. Perhaps it is saved especially for large groups. Either way it would appear that the just do not care. Stay away.

My friends and I visited for lunch and were impressed with everything we ordered. Great portion size at a reasonable price. This establishment is top notch for burgers and has a full menu with many choices from salads, wraps and subs. The chicken Philly is one of the best I ever had. A unique creation called the Grubrito is huge and features a blending of flavors including pork belly (smoked on site) a good casual atmosphere. Truly a place where the locals go for a great lunch, dinner or to just unwind. Sorry no pics of the food, it was nicely presented, we were all hungry and just dove into our food.

The service was very friendly throughout my visit and really appreciated the attentiveness from the sever. I ended up getting a hot Charcoal Mocha because it seemed like something you can't get anywhere else, it has activated charcoal, espresso, cocoa powder & a touch of coconut oil. I love that they serve their drinks out of fun mugs, it feels homey. To eat, I got the Charter Colony sandwich once I noticed they offered gluten free bread.

The menu is well thought out, I've been here for breakfast several times and the food is prepared to order! They also carry Cupertino bagels for an authentic NY experience! The server was also the owner and he was pretty cool... chatting with us and giving us some history of the place. We enjoyed his dry sense of humor! We also enjoyed the baked goods!! The prices were on point and we left feeling like a regular. In the back, there's a small kid friendly area for your tots to amuse themselves. Smart thinkin' Lincoln! We enjoyed this spot immensely and I'll be heading back there today for lunch!! Well done!! Love this place!

They have bouncers, which tells me people have ruined the experience with unruly behavior, though I still think they should permit bathroom visits being that it's a human need.

He had been involuntarily assigned to transport supplies to Washington, D.C. for government-related work despite not even working for the government. He was completely exhausted and just wanted a meal before finally getting some sleep. He placed the order on the restaurant's website, which automatically redirected it through DoorDash. The order was confirmed, had an order number, and had already been assigned a driver. Then, out of nowhere, the restaurant canceled the order. Since my husband was exhausted, I called on his behalf. The first employee told me their DoorDash tablet wasn't even on, they never received an order, and they didn't cancel anything. Then another employee admitted they did cancel the order because they weren't working with DoorDash. During this process, I was hung up on twice. I then contacted DoorDash. Their customer service was polite and confirmed there was a valid order, a driver had been assigned, and the restaurant canceled the order. Unfortunately, because the order was placed through the restaurant's website, DoorDash couldn't issue a refund and advised me to contact the restaurant. When I called the restaurant back and explained what DoorDash had told me, the employee began speaking to someone else in Spanish while I was talking and completely ignored me. Every time I tried to explain the situation, she talked over me. I repeatedly said that all I wanted was our money back. Instead of helping, she denied everything and then hung up on me again. After that, they stopped answering the phone altogether. I was polite at the beginning of every conversation. It wasn't until I was repeatedly hung up on and ignored that I became frustrated. Mistakes happen, but the way this situation was handled was completely unprofessional. Hanging up on customers instead of trying to resolve the issue is unacceptable. If you're going to take orders through your website that are routed through DoorDash, then you need to honor those orders or at least communicate professionally when something goes wrong. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend this restaurant. Save yourself the frustration and spend your money somewhere that values its customers.

The atmosphere at Sedona Chester is welcoming, and the restaurant has potential. Unfortunately, the…read morecustomer service and management during our visit were well below acceptable standards. Our food arrived cold, the tables were not properly cleaned, and the service was unacceptably slow. The experience was made worse by the apparent lack of effective management and accountability when issues arose. The bar service was also disappointing. From our perspective, the bartenders appeared to give preferential attention to female customers while other guests waited to be acknowledged and served. That type of experience leaves a poor impression and should not be overlooked. At the end of the day, customer service starts with leadership. The attitude and performance of the staff ultimately reflect the management and the standards being set inside the restaurant. Average food and a nice atmosphere cannot compensate for poor service, poor table maintenance, and ineffective management. Based on this experience, I would not return to the Chester location or recommend it to others. I would rather drive to the Colonial Heights or Midlothian locations. Two stars for the atmosphere. Unfortunately, the service and management experience earned the other three stars a permanent absence.
