The oysters were the bomb of course. The biscuits were so crispy but soft on the inside and the shrimp butter had the perfect umami flavor! Entrees: Fish Sandwich & Jerk Chicken Burger. Both perfectly executed! Texture, flavor, spice! We ordered the beet salad as a light side to our sandwiches. If you like earthy flavors, this salad is for you! The beets and dandelion greens are earthy and slightly bitter while the cheese adds a layer of creaminess and sweetness from the walnuts. Drinks: Birds of Paradise (YUUMM) It's sweet and tart. The Yellowbelly drink is very rum forward with spices on the backend. The glasses and garnishments are on point!!

The food is great. The drinks are well crafted. There's something for everyone here. Love happy hour. Fries are delish. Chicken sandwich and coconut shrimp are bangers. Boyfriend loves the lobster roll, but it's not huge! We've had wonderful service anytime we've been here. The lighting is dim. It's a perf date night. Desserts are also a hit! Ask the servers for their recs. If you're going for brunch, also excellent. I've been once. The lobster enchiladas were 10/10.

The staff were very friendly for our first time. Our server dropped off waters for us right away. It was a seat yourself concept where you order via the QR code, which made ordering easily. We started with caviar deviled eggs and fried green tomatoes, both of which we devoured. The green tomatoes are thicker and had a good bite to them! The gator po'boy was good, though on the dryer side. I would have loved more of the sauce on mine. The chips were perfectly crispy crunchy! My partner got the lobster roll and scarfed it down in a few bites. A bit on the pricier side since it's based on the market value, but still delicious. Great location and delicious food, we'll be back!

Great food, terrible service I got the seafood pasta which…read morewas perfectly cooked and had great flavors. No complaints about the actual meal. Unfortunately, the service completely ruined the experience. The lady at the front counter, Aliyyah, was hands-down one of the worst I've ever encountered. She didn't check on the table once after dropping off the food. We had to go to her or catch kitchen staff just to get refills. The entire time she was either on her personal phone having loud conversations instead of doing her job. Zero effort to engage with customers or even pretend to care. To top it off, when she rang up the ticket, she put "Glasses" as my name on the receipt instead of bothering to ask what my actual name was. It felt lazy and dismissive. I even talked to someone from the kitchen staff and was informed that she's does this often even though others have complained. Food was great, but the attitude and neglect from Aliyyah made the whole visit unpleasant. I won't be returning unless there's a different server. Management really needs to address this kind of behavior.

Being a single man, I needed a place for Christmas Dinner. Typically I have always done dinner with…read morecousins, but they now have married children and grandchildren to have holiday dinner with, so I went out on my own. I researched the internet for restaurants open on Christmas Day and picked, The Preston. I picked them based on their pre-fixed menu and price. After my dining experience, I would say it was a good choice and value. My Christmas dinner started off with a, Seared Scallop. I love Scallops and it really got my holiday meal off to a great start. Then I had a Beet Salad. It was the first time I had a beet salad with greens, but the spiced vinaigrette pulled it all together. My entree was, Prime Rib. It came with Horseradish Mashed Potatoes, Roasted Asparagus and Mushroom Bordelaise. The Prime Rib was fork tender. I enjoyed the potatoes and the asparagus still had a snap to it, which I like. I wasn't a fan of the Bordelaise. Yes, it did have a good flavor, I just wanted my prime rib, plain. My dessert was a, French Silk Tart. You can't go wrong with chocolate. When I arrived I told the host since I was a single diner, I wouldn't mind sitting at the bar. He thanked me and told me I'd be pleased with Madeline the bartender. He was right, she was attentive and made my Christmas dinner enjoyable.

I ordered the Good Morning Mr. Preston sandwich. Unfortunately, it was very dry and lackluster - even after asking for an extra side of aioli, it was pretty disappointing. The vegetable and herb potatoes seemed like an afterthought. I expected more out of the food, especially considering the upscale vibe and prices, and can't say I'd be back again.

Good green salsa, terrible ceviche, as our friend put it, it was viscous which is never good for a fish dish much less a fresh uncooked one. The fajitas were good and large, the chicherones were not something we will ever get my husband (who likes to try new foods) again. My margarita was mid at best. Was it terrible? No. Was it good enough to make it a point to go back? Also no. And if someone could please point me to the real Mariscos El Gato I'd love to know.

And of course, we had to end with the hot fudge sundae, which was such a fun and nostalgic dessert experience with every topping you could want. Wright's Tavern is definitely worth the reservation and a spot I'd happily return to again.

My filet au poivre and my husband's French dip were forgettable at best. My steak was overcooked (ordered medium rare and came out close to medium well). With such a lean cut of meat, the overcooking of it ruined it. The Au poivre sauce which likely had cognac needed to be cooked off as it was extremely bitey (and salty). There was no peppery flavor at all. My cocktail, on the other hand, was delicious and well made (old fashioned) and our server was efficient, helpful, and timely. Overall I enjoyed the atmosphere. I've had the crab cake before so I didn't get it this time, and it's as good as people say. It is huge and can be shared with at LEAST two people. I'd likely visit again but I'll probably stay away from these two entrees next time.
