My wife and I had dinner at Hooky, which is Hope & Glory's outdoor dining space (during Covid), and…read moreare extremely disappointed with our experience. When my wife called to make a reservation, she made it a point of telling the woman she spoke with (Chef Meseret) that it would be our anniversary, and that wasn't even acknowledged at any point during our meal, even though they recognized another customer's birthday. The meal itself was fine, but not exceptional, from oyster appetizer to crab cake entrée to cheesecake dessert. Everything was more or less good until the meal was finished. The waiter asked us if we wanted "to review your charges", which we thought was odd, since we figured we'd just get the check. Instead of that, the guy came over with an iPad and showed us the charges. In addition to the fixed price meal ($80 per person) we ordered two cocktails ($28 total) and a bottle of wine ($52), and then they had the nerve to charge us another $16 for an alcohol service fee. WHAT?!?! You can bet that they made plenty of markup on both the wine and the cocktails, but to charge us to serve it too...WTF?! I questioned the guy about the charge, and his answer was "I don't know, I just do what I'm told". As if that wasn't bad enough, he then put us on the spot and asked if we wanted to add a tip, and how much? What an annoying end to an otherwise fairly pleasant meal. All told, the tab was over three hundred bucks. Totally not worth it. While we were eating, we discussed the possibility of staying at Hope & Glory for a future visit to the area, but after getting nickled and dimed for a service fee, they're not getting any more money from us.

Deliciousness - 2.5/5 Happiness - 4/5…read more I went here for a group dinner. It's a cute place with a very friendly staff. But ultimately, I was a bit disappointed. We started with flatbreads. I don't know if the cheese mixes were off but one was too tart and the other had far too much goat cheese (enough that it blunted the taste of the mushrooms). Although I don't eat shrimp, I did put some of the accompanying pow pow sauce on my flatbread and that was excellent - a nice, flavorful and bold spice. I wish I'd kept more of it for my main meal. We started with a standard salad, which was promising. The ranch dressing was extremely flavorful, and the croutons withstood the dressing and were delightfully crunchy. For dinner, I got a chicken marsala type dish. Although it came drenched in sauce (which, sadly, melted the mashed potatoes before I could eat them), there was very little flavor. The skin on the chicken was also a bit gummy and unpleasant. And it also came with some broccoli that was both lightly cooked (closer to raw than not) and lightly seasoned. Others in our group had salmon, or steak, but not a plate was finished. At the end the we got ginormous (seriously) slices of carrot cake. That was the highlight for sure, with thick frosting, a good caramel drizzle, and super-moist cake. They said it comes from an old recipe, and it delivered. The servers were very nice and welcoming. But they disappeared for most of the meal. Although we had several bottles of wine, they never came around to re-fill (nor were the waters topped off).

Counter service was friendly. It is a bus your own table kind of place where you bring your plates back to the end of the counter and clear your dishes/leave them on the counter. There is plentiful outdoor starting as well as a decent amount of indoor seating for a small café. We sat at a round table by the front window which had nice lighting and a cozy feel.

Sandy was very responsive to emails and questions, and she was also first to contact me as the event got closer.William came by the venue to get a site plan and confirm logistics on the day before. We walked in to an elegant set up with everyone ready to serve us. You only noticed the staff carving the meat when you were at the buffet. Otherwise, they were discreet while ensuring that everything was available. With all that, I haven't mentioned the food. The food was incredible. We're a gluten free household, and they were able to accommodate that. In addition, my other son has additional sensitivities and was able to have questions immediately answered by the staff. There was plenty of food, and several guests returned for more. We had the beef roast and the chicken with scalloped potatoes and salad. We also had a fruit plate, amazing crab balls, and shrimp cocktail for appetizers. Desserts were the strawberries and chocolate sauce and fudge bars- which were my family's favorite. Lastly, the service and clean up was beyond impeccable. William and his staff ensured that we had very little to do in that way. We had used dishes that would be used the next day for the ceremony, and they discretely collected, cleaned and sanitized, and replaced them all for us. I would use Willaby's for any catering event- especially if they were local to us. It was affordable with delicious food and gave us service way beyond our expectations.
