    Pretzel

    Very slow service. Food was ok. Nothing special. Got app. Pretzel for two with sopressata and cheese. Thought it would be stuffed. But was just put on top. Also got chicken sandwich. Bun was way bigger than chicken. Topped off with stale lava cake. Very disappointing. Don't think I will be back.

    I wanted to give a big shout out to Christopher's Bistro in Chester. This past weekend my family threw me a surprise bday party and everything was just perfect. My husband said that working with Val and her team was so easy and she was just wonderful to deal with. My husband is not normally a planner so the fact that they made this as painful as possible and helped him along means a lot! Thank you again to them. And the food was great... we have eaten here many times before and have never had a disappointing meal.

    Pumpkin Martini

    Excellent!!! After picking apples, we wanted to have a drink, and we found this place. When we arrived, we sat down at the bar, and the bartender offered the menu. I asked her if she could make a pumpkin martini, and she did an awesome job !!! The Pumpkin Martini was exquisite!! Extraordinary! Kudos to the bartender, she was extremely attentive. Definitely, if you are around the area, stop here and enjoy a drink.

    Loaded fries

    Very cute inside - the food has its ups and downs. It was a great way to end the night after Legoland with the family. The lemonade is not good at all. The burger was just OK. But their fries and the salmon was amazing. I would go back just for those two. The French onion soup was ok - I've had much better but it was good to have when feeling cold.

    Cajun Shrimp Pasta (not sure if the names is correct)

    Food is delicious....I still feel that it's more of a lunch place than dinner experience. Ambience is needed.

    Oak & Reed - Chicken & Waffles

    Oak & Reed

    4.6(268 reviews)

    I've always loved Oak & Reed for dinner and brunch but now trying them for breakfast new love…read moreunlocked. The breakfast was simple but then of course Oak & Reed throws in their flair. The eggs were perfectly cooked soft and buttery. And the sour dough toast with that perfect sour dough tang was the perfect edition. Even the coffee in the French press takes the coffee to another level. But talking about Oak & Reed flair the signature waffle was possibly one of the best things I have eaten. The waffle with that pearl sugar is the way a waffle should be made but then they have that waffle filled with Dutch caramel and that mascarpone on top is perfect. The tang, sweetness, butteriness, the crisp yet fluffy waffle it all was an equation for an amazing breakfast item. I could eat that every time I go. Truly amazing. The staff in Oak & Reed is always amazing attentive and kind. Live the open kitchen concept. Especially with my two year old currently in a Ratatouille kick so she wanted to see the chefs while she looked for Remy cooking. All in all Oak & Reed never disappoints.

    Unfortunately I have to say this place was just meh!…read more This is one of my friends favorite restaurant, she even wanted to have them cater her wedding. So I was excited when we finally got a chance to try it. And here is where it may have been my fault, maybe I hyped it up too much. So the funny thing when we arrived at the restaurant and I saw another friend. She told me it was her first time and it wasn't good (this was a warning!) she said especially the chicken and waffles. So again maybe it's my fault because I didn't listen. My heart was set on the chicken and waffles and she was right. It was not good. Like how do you mess up chicken and waffles? It was lacking all types of flavor. It was bad. Why 3 stars than? Because their Spicy Pork Congee was amazing! It's an Asian rice dish and everything that lacked flavor in the chicken and waffles was made up in this dish. The problem? This is only an appetizer. It needs to be an entree, which would mean making it a larger portion. It was fantastic! They also had a decent beer selection which we got. The inside of the restaurant is cute. It has so much potential I just think maybe a revamp of the recipes. But maybe another dish would be good. We came for brunch so I don't know how their dinner menu is. I will probably give them another chance because how amazing the congee was I know they have potential to be great.
