I appreciated that they had large platform games for families to enjoy, but unfortunately, the noise became distracting. Whenever the Connect 4 game ended, the pieces would come crashing down, creating loud noises that took away from the overall dining experience. We were given complimentary bread, but it was cold, and the butter was so frozen that none of us felt inclined to eat it. The food itself was mediocre overall. They do offer a $28 prime rib special on Fridays, which, to our family's surprise, was actually better than expected. I probably wouldn't return unless it was simply for convenience. One thing worth noting, though, is that they sell beer, wine, and seltzers inside the restaurant, so if you're in the area and need to pick up some drinks, that's an added convenience.

BUT....while paying for our beer pack, the guy at the bar was so standoffish, rude, made sure to let us know that he couldn't care less that we were there. He entered our card manually and mistyped the expiration date. Threw the card to my husband and walked away saying something under his breath. We didn't even know what happened until my husband got a message from his bank saying that recent transaction was declined because expiration date did not match. The guy took his time to come back, my husband said hey you entered the wrong date, but the guy ignored. My husband gave another card, we paid and left as soon as possible. You just lost another customer. Good job!

Service was excellent as was the decor. Definitely a memorable experience.

My family recently celebrated a birthday with a party of approximately 40 guests, and it was our…read morefirst time dining there. From start to finish, the experience was wonderful. Our waitstaff, Ben and Brittany, were phenomenal. They were attentive, accommodating, and went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly. I have a special dietary restriction, and they were kind enough to prepare a separate plate for me instead of having me choose from the main buffet. We also arrived a little early to put up some small decorations, and Ben was incredibly helpful in getting everything set up. The views were beautiful, and the food was delicious. Inside, there appear to be separate rooms available for private parties as well as regular dining, which makes it a cozy and versatile place for celebrations and larger events. My entire family was very pleased with how everything turned out. Another bonus is the location--it's situated in a charming little town with shops within walking distance, making it a great place to explore before or after your meal. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would definitely consider returning for another special occasion!

First time here, and I was expecting better based on the reviews. Entrance, tables, chairs, and…read moreambiance were as I expected. Ordered New England Clam Chowder. Served quickly and hot in a big, wide bowl. It looked good. Had small, irregularly sized potatoes and chopped carrots. The broth was a little thicker than I imagined or had tasted before in other restaurants, or in the one I make. Clams were tiny and, as you'd expect from a can. Not fresh clams. In fact, you can put all the clams found in chowder in a single tablespoon. Even found a whole bay leaf in it, which should have been removed before serving it. So, how is the chowder? I've had better from canned chowder, and the one I make is way better. Zero stars for the chowder. Next up is the Turkey platter with sliced turkey (hard and dry), 1 ice cream scoop of mashed potatoes (ok, nothing special), 1 ice cream scoop of stuffing (totally disgusting, and had corn in it), string beans (with vine still attached), gravy (terrible), and a little cup of cranberries (decent). Total fail. The waitress was ok, though stopping by every 5 minutes to ask if everything was good was quite annoying. The 'ice water gentleman' was great. You never asked for water, and when the glass was 1/2 empty, he was there refilling it. Great job! The final score of 2 stars is for the historic inn's ambiance and layout. We won't be back, and do not recommend.

We enjoyed an outstanding dinner here! While staying nearby in Atlantic City for a conference, we…read morereally wanted to get away from that nasty area and one of our colleagues lives in the area and suggested we try Steve & Cookies. We got there and it looked, calm, simple, and plain from the outside - until we walked in... this place was PACKED! Clearly, since we didn't make reservations, we weren't going to enjoy seating at their white table cloth tables in the main dining room, but we went around back to their bar and scored one last table there. Our server, Brian was amazing... engaging... and on point! They have a nice wine list and perfect spirit list. They also have an outstanding menu loaded with so many options, that I really just needed to settle on the first thing I saw that looked good. For me, I love cucumbers and when I saw they had a cucumber salad, done Asian style, I was completely in!!! Then I saw their soup of the day was split pea with bacon and since no one serves split pea and when they do, it's rarely what I expect, I got that too! Both of these came out looking GREAT! The cucumber salad had a nice spice to it and the flavors overall were sooo on point! That split pea soup was also great... almost perfect! It had the exact texture this soup should have and the flavor was very nice. For my entrée I saw a few of the halibut as I was walking through the dining room, so that is what I chose. The halibut came out looking great! It was PERFECTLY prepared too!! The flavors were spot-on, and the accompanying veggies were great too. We were enjoying dinner so much that we didn't want it to end, even though we were full... so, we ordered desserts too. I opted for the banana cream pie, as this is another item I rarely see on a menu and when I do, it's rarely done right, but not here... they did it perfectly! Overall, amazing meal... Highly recommend stopping in, but make reservations first!

For me this is my go to favorite for meals that are well prepared, with a varied selection, and…read morepriced appropriately for a fine dining experience. Their summer tomato appetizer is probably the most popular of all. There are so many positive reviews that back me up about all that is great about the place, I thought that I might make a few suggestions for areas that could use improvement. First involves parking. They have very little and are using almost half of the space for outside services I don't quite understand. This means dropping off your party and hunting the neighborhood for a place to park. This leads to the second negative. The receptionist is a bit unforgiving if your ENTIRE party is not physically in the house. So if you are out foraging for a place to park you are out of luck. Next there is the bread service. Despite the fact that they are connected with a bakery there is an up charge for bread. This is a small thing, but really unnecessary as prices for the main part of the meal certainly compensate for a few slices of bread. Finally there is the reservation process. It seems like tables are held and not available for the general public. If you use the "notify" feature in RESY, there is a chance that one of these reserved tables will be released. This is annoying at best. All that said this is probably the best restaurant in the area.

You need to google the menu to see why you really ought to go. It is bright, clean and attractively decorated. The staff are uniformly polite and pleasant. Seriously, go for the breakfasts. You can go every day for weeks and have something different - and delicious.

An adorable blonde waited on us who was extremely conversational and attentive throughout dinner. (Being a University of Michigan alum, my husband was especially appreciative of the service). In terms of the appetizers, we ordered watermelon salads, and were satisfied with what we were given. Unfortunately, we couldn't say the same about our entrees. The swordfish that I ordered was overcooked and chewy, and the soft-shell crabs that my husband ordered were undercooked. When paying $30 for a single entree, you might expect the cook to pay a bit more attention to detail. In addition to the previous comment, I also found the dining arrangement to be strange. One would assume, for the high prices of the entrees, that clientele would be seated on something other than picnic benches or plastic chairs. I understand that it is an outdoor restaurant so any type of cushioned chair is likely out of the question, but I really expected something a bit more inviting. Also, we were being bitten by bugs throughout our dinner. Although the presence of bugs may come with the territory of an outdoor restaurant, when the they spend an hour and a half flying in and out of your $30 dollar entree, you begin to wonder if it beach ambiance is worth the sanitary issue. Will we be returning this summer? Most likely not. In terms of the service and appetizers, both my husband and I were very pleased. But in terms of the quality of the entrees and the dining arrangement, we were less than impressed to say the least.
