Folks beware, there is nothing sweet about this Jane! The bartenders (if that's what we're calling…read morethem) moved with the quiet hostility of people who have abandoned empathy. I made eye contact with one and immediately felt like I had interrupted something deeply unpleasant. I ordered the house special. One sip in and I knew this was not a beverage. It tasted like a soggy shoebox dusted with expired glitter, with subtle undertones of something medically concerning. Before I could even put the glass down, my left ear began to vibrate like a shifting tectonic plate. I tried to stand up, but my legs had decided they were no longer on speaking terms with my torso. I eventually had to crawl out the establishment like a disgraced salamander. My skin still tastes like lead and the lights gave me a migraine in a color that doesn't exist. Proceed with extreme spiritual caution.

Bayberry is a lovely restaurant and bar with small but specific menu of tasty looking options…read more The Mr and I along with our newborn were looking for a new near by seafood locations and came across them and decided to give them a try. As mentioned they try to offer fresh, seasonal apps, handhelds, salads and entrees. The protein entree options only offer two to three chicken, pork, steak, seafood selections along with a couple of pasta infused dishes. They have a full bar, so if a beer or cocktail is wanted you do have options there as well. The Mr selected the Chilled Shrimp & Crab Stack, but eliminated the hard boiled egg aspect and thought it was light, tasty and refreshing. I opted for the Faroe Salmon with shrimp that came accompanied/on top of a risotto and peas. I thought cooked medium was perfect making it soft and fork flaky to mix along together. It was a very juicy sizable piece making it very filling. We didn't have time for a dessert, but noted they did have a few offerings there. Also noted they had very well kept mens/woman's and family restroom with baby changing table. Thanks! Would highly recommend this location to others.

I've been meaning to try Bayberry for a while & I saw a post about their happy hour so decided to…read moregive it a try. Happy hour at the bar is from 12-7pm with the bar bites available after 4pm. The place is very nicely decorated and exudes an upscale but unpretentious vibe. I ordered a glass of the pinot noir which was tasty and at $6 a nice bargain. I got the chickpea fries and was surprised by the texture. It was almost custard like with a slight chickpea flavor in a very light breading. Served with the harissa aioli it made for a nice app. After a while I decided to try the Filet mignon sliders, which I ordered medium rare, the bartender said they don't usually take a temp on those but he'd note it. The meat is sliced very thin but was tender and still had a bit of red. The arugula gave it a nice peppery bite. My only critic is the slider roll was very cottony, but the overall taste was very good. I'll definitely be back and will try something off the regular menu.

Better late than never with this backdated review--life has just been lifing!…read moreI finally made it to Artemis on July 22nd after fiending to go since January. There's actually a hilarious story behind why I went. I was originally supposed to have a date that night, but let's be real: you'd think a 61-year-old man would know better than to take a 47-year-old woman to Dave & Buster's. I canceled the night before, dolled myself up the day of, and decided to take myself out instead. Best decision ever. The joint is dimly lit. But your eyes wind up adjusting. It's got a great vibe. Definitely excellent for a date night. The bartenders here are absolute rockstars. I started with a Painkiller. Even though it's no longer on the menu, they whipped it up for me anyway--and hey, it definitely relieved my pain, lol! Next, I tried a Corpse Reviver just because it had absinthe in it. It was different, but I really enjoyed it. Naturally, I had to finish with my signature drink, a Cosmopolitan, because I am the Black Carrie Bradshaw of Long Island. And it did not disappoint. The eats: I got the charcuterie board--fancy and bougie, just like me--and wrapped up the night with the brownie à la mode for dessert. Drowning my troubles in sweets is a must when the Long Island dating pool is an absolute wasteland, lmao. Did I want to spend my night around teenagers, kids, and skee-ball? HELL NO! I wanted a grown-and-sexy speakeasy vibe, and Artemis delivered. 5/5 stars--would 100% recommend!

Jackson Hall American Bar & Grill offered a casual and relaxed environment as well as a formal dining experience. We had stellar service today. We came for lobster rolls. Now, I have had lobster rolls before at a Manhattan location. They were two lobster rolls, small in size. But having a lobster roll, Let me reiterate, having one lobster roll at Jackson Hall American Bar & Grill left me with a new experience and a new perspective on what lobster rolls are. Can I talk about the Maryland Lobster & crab roll. This was one huge, I mean huge lobster roll that consisted of delicious sauteed Maine Lobster and Jumbo Lump Crab meat, poached in old bay garlic butter on a toasted roll. OMGoodnes very filling and D'licious, old bay fries was an bonus enhancer for this meal. The fries were just as tasty. I would be remiss if I did not mention the mussel pot. Absolutely D'licious. The juice, the toast, perfect combination, I can eat it as a main meal just as is! Andie, Pat, Joe P, and I devoured one pot while, Same Y, Mike S, Cathie P, and Gail B, consumed their pot.

We went to Ditch for lunch and really loved the beachy vibe of the place. For an appetizer, we got…read morethe fried pickles, and they were out of this world, honestly, they might have been the best fried pickles we've ever had! They were super crisp and came with a creamy horseradish dipping sauce that was absolutely delicious. For lunch, I got the taco platter with the roasted cauliflower, carne asada, and Beachfire chicken tacos. The Beachfire chicken had the perfect amount of spice, and the Gallo pinto on the side was super fresh and flavorful. My husband got the Korean chicken sammie, which was a great portion and had a spicy, tasty sauce. He also tried the pork belly taco, which he really enjoyed. The service was great and even had a QR code on the table to pay and order more in case you were in a time crunch. We'll definitely be back! We're already looking forward to coming back and trying some of their drinks next time.

I had high expectations for this restaurant, but unfortunately they fell flat…read more We stopped by for the Taco Tuesday special, but the deal wasn't much of a deal. The tacos were only $1 off the regular price, and they were the smallest tacos I've ever seen. Even with the discount, they still felt overpriced for the portion size. We ordered three carne asada tacos, one chicken taco, one al pastor taco, and the cotija fries. The food was just okay, nothing that stood out or made me want to come back. The service was also just okay. Our waitress wasn't very personable. I ordered the Island Rum Punch, and it was terrible. When I mentioned that it didn't taste right, she explained they were out of one of the liquors that normally goes into the drink. She never offered to replace it or let me choose something else. Instead, I ended up asking for more simple syrup just to make it somewhat drinkable. The entire experience felt mediocre and lackluster. Between the disappointing food, underwhelming service, and poorly handled drink issue, it just wasn't money well spent. Unfortunately, I don't see myself returning to this establishment.

We were greeted and seated by the friendliest host who mentioned it is restaurant week. They have a special menu in place $46 (sorry forgot that photo). You have a choice of one appetizers, one entree and one dessert. We will start off about talking about the yummy appetizers four nice sized baked clams which were so flavorful and moist with a lemon drizzle. We had to order the ciabatta roll to dip of course. For dinner, we each had the lemon fettuccine with shrimp and thinly sliced asparagus which was a great choice for a lighter & fresh dinner option. Now let's get to the dessert, the flourless chocolate cake. All I can say is WOW! Hands down the best. This Chocolate was absolutely delicious moist, hot, decadent chocolate with pistachio sauce drizzled plate. OMG. The waitress Kelly did not steer us wrong everything we asked she was correct about. Her energy and attentiveness was off the chart. Thanks for a wonderful dinner experience in your new restaurant. We will definitely be back soon.

She was friendly, brought the menus, and got our drinks started. They also have daily specials throughout the week. I ordered the Meatball Monday spaghetti special, which came with garlic bread and a side salad for one price. To finish the meal, I had the tiramisu. The spaghetti was flavorful, and the tiramisu was light, fluffy, and a great way to end the meal. The service was good, the food was satisfying, and I'd definitely recommend checking this place out if you're in the area.

Magnolias is a very cool spot with a lot to offer. In addition to a great restaurant and bar area,…read morethey have a spacious outdoor courtyard that gives the place a unique atmosphere. Whether you're looking to grab a drink, share some appetizers, or sit down for dinner, it's a great setting. I visited last week with my family, and the appetizers were definitely the highlight of the meal. We ordered the Magnolia Flatbread, Burrata, and Baked Clams. The flatbread is an absolute must-order, it was outstanding and easily the favorite dish of the night. The burrata and baked clams were also very good. For our entrees, my dad and I both ordered burgers. While they were flavorful, they were unfortunately overcooked. I ordered mine medium and my dad ordered medium-rare, but neither burger had any pink in the center. My wife ordered the Tuna Sliders from the appetizer menu and they weren't what she expected; she said she wouldn't order them again. My mother enjoyed the French Dip and thought it was very good from what I tried. Magnolias serves "cottage fries" instead of traditional French fries. They're essentially thick-cut fried potato slices--more like a hearty potato chip. While it's an interesting twist, I'm a French fry person and personally prefer traditional fries. My wife and I both ordered the truffle cottage fries, and they came out quite soggy, likely from sitting in too much oil. We mentioned it to our waitress, who agreed after seeing them and kindly removed them from the bill. Overall, Magnolias has a great atmosphere, excellent appetizers, and a unique setting that makes it worth visiting. While there were a few issues with some of our entrees and sides, I'd definitely return, especially for drinks and appetizers in the courtyard.
