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.

Upon entry you see neon light disco-ish K-bbq tables. You let the hostess know how many and they usher you to the table. FYI. Everyone at the same table must order the same deal (BBQ or hotpot only or both). Once seated, the waiter came to take order for drinks & hot pot broth and gave instructions for ordering. There's a small buffet bar in the back with some fried items, banchan (side dishes like kimchi), fruits, all the sauces & ice cream for dessert. We fill a plate of buffet bar goodies and wait for meat & veggies to arrive. Then the cooking & eating begins... They have à la carte items if you don't want to cook but this is definitely a cook you own food place. Overall the raw food selections were ample, the marinate, sauces & broth outstanding, and could use a little better selection of dessert. The services could be more attentive but overall great place great prices esp. lunch. Will come back next time around the area.

What a surprise for what could be considered mall food?! While this spot isn't in the food court,…read moreit is in the mall, so I had my doubts. But very happy we went because the food absolutely hit the spot. A warm loaded soup for a cold wintry day and a hearty fried rice platter to warm my soul. Excellent dishes at sizable portion sizes. The bill was a bit funny with a service charge already added as a group of two diners, but this misstep can be overlooked. Definitely don't let initial impressions be the judge and stop you from trying this legit dining option of real platters and not fast food.

I would never actually go here - but I was sent to pick up a DoorDash order. I stood there waiting…read moreto be greeted.. so I walked infront of a group of people and said EXCUSE ME to the hostest who was on her phone. She pointed for me to go towards the bar. (She didn't speak) every other person racially profiled me and assumed I can speak Spanish - even though I spoke English the entire time. I go to the bag where the hostest pointed - and it's actually a customers bag and she snatches it back from me. Now the busboys, bartender, hostest & servers are all having a good laugh at me & I'm unsure what they said because I don't speak Spanish. But I grabbed the real bag and got out of there. And get this - their customer didn't even tip.

It wasn't too much of a problem as I noticed there wasn't a lot of long tables that would accommodate us comfortable-just a long walk from the front entrance.

They have a special going on for $19.99 which comes with a soup OR salad, an appetizer & an entree! Great portion sizes with this special.

Looking to see what Middletown had to offer for sushi I decided to give Mr Sushi & Grill a try for…read moresome dinner. Walking inside I was greeted by spacious dining layout and lively environment. I got a seat at the sushi bar and ordered the Sashimi Dinner and a Hot Green Tea. The Sashimi Dinner came with a Miso soup and House Salad which was nice but were both pretty disappointing. Unfortunately the Sashimi dinner was quite a disappointment as well. Very soggy, soft, falling apart texture from lack of freshness in the all of the fish, not to mention the flavor. I also have to add this was one of the gamiest tasting, smelling & textural salmon sashimi I have been served. Overall a 3.7/10 quality of ingredients were all fair at best, staff was not very welcoming & it was generally just a bit sticky everywhere.
