Simple, fast diner food. What can I say, it's good, cheap and fast! No frills, no fuss. Blueberry pancakes are delicious, eggs and hash are great, their burger and fries are good too (but the bun could be better). My mom likes her pastrami sandwich but I didn't taste that. Cash only!

Plantation breakfast three eggs, 2 pancakes, bacon , sausage , home fries and toast. Yummy

Delicious Home cooking and large portions. Great prices and old school old-fashioned restaurant. They only take cash.

Hands down one of the best breakfast spots I've EVER been to. The parking situation isn't ideal but when I noticed how big (which Lolly's Hut isn't) and saw all the cars parked around it ... I knew I needed to go in! Thank goodness I did. Lolly's Hut did not disappoint. From the minute I walked into Lolly's Hut I knew this spot was a legit. The way customers were slopping up their eggs and enjoying their pancakes while enjoying the company of who they were with, I was eager to sit down and order! My husband and I were going to wait on a table but when we noticed the counter had available seating, we decided to cop a squat there. Not even a minute after we sat we were asked if we wanted coffee and given menus by Paula, the cook. I ordered a short stack with sausage and my husband got the kielbasa, egg and cheese on a roll. Paula asked if I wanted butter on my pancakes and before I could say yes, she must have seen my eyes light up with delight ... I love me some butter ... lol. Usually you're given pancakes with a glob of butter and you have to maneuver the butter onto the lower pancakes without dripping the butter off ... but not at Lolly's Hut. When our orders came up, my short stack had the perfect amount of butter on each pancake. My husband said he never thought about kielbasa as a meat on a meat, egg and cheese and was pleasantly pleased with the choice. Even as she cooked the numerous amount of dishes, Paula checked on us to make sure we didn't need anything and was ok. What a sweetheart! Will I return? Absolutely. Will I tell anyone and everyone I know who wants a delicious breakfast before heading to Tanger Outlets about Lolly's Hut? You better believe it!! Wishing Lolly's Hut continued success in 2025 and beyond!!

Delightful little place - our server was new, so we were patient - reminded me of a small upstate diner w/ quaint service.... Gave the new woman a good tip

Hole in the wall diner with cheap food and fast service. Friendly staff. Cash only establishment. The food was a little oily but the potions are huge. The restaurant is not fancy. We would go back if we were in the neighborhood again.

Hot Pastrami on Rye
Thomas M.

Lolly's Hut is a literal side of the road "snack" hut run by an old grandma named Lolly. She doesn't move very fast and doesn't like it if you try to rush her. I ordered the hot pastrami and the sandwich was pretty damn bad. It was salty as all heck and barely edible. While I was there, another gentleman ordered the turkey club and never received it. He told the waitress that he would like to pay for his soda and go because he couldn't wait any longer. Upon hearing this Lolly was whipped into a bit of a frenzy and basically said something to the effect of "I'm 100 years old I'm doing my best... and now you've gone ahead and upset me." I found this interaction quite amusing as the guy wasn't even really upset. He just really had to go and wanted to let them know he had waited awhile for his turkey club and couldn't any longer. By the way this place is frequented entirely by the AARP crowd. I was probably the only person in here below the age of 50. The couple next to me literally ordered a breakfast platter with like one egg (not kidding). This is that type of place. It's worth coming in just to experience it. On the brightside: the food is dirt cheap. My hot pastrami sandwich cost like $6.

Cuisine: 7 Service: 7 Decor: 6 Value: 9 Overall: 7 Going back in time is how I feel when dining at this little old shack-like diner that probably has not been updated in decades. There is nothing fancy, just good cheap breakfast and lunch (after 11:30am) food served by some friendly staff that has been working here since the Reagan administration. One morning, I had the kielbasa, cheese and two eggs on a super soft kaiser roll. Honestly, I wish there was more meat and cheese, but you can't complain at these prices. If I am hungry next time, I'll just ask for double the meat and cheese. With that said, the sandwich was delicious. Btw, that roll was sooooo fluffy! One of my friends had a western omelette, another had a bacon egg & cheese, while the third person had a sausage egg & cheese. We also added a side order of chicken salad. They all enjoyed their meals too, even more so knowing we can pay with the change found under our sofa seat cushions.

Upscale American food at a beautiful riverfront spot. We got the Crab Cake and Lamb Chops off the…read moremain menu, and the Ciabatta Bread, Sea Scallops and Half Duck off the specials menu. The Crab Cake was a hefty portion and a delicious start to the meal. Spicy, tomatoey olive oil was great with the Ciabatta. Lamb Chops were cooked to medium and the blackberry fig sauce complemented it nicely. The Sea Scallop was a very solid dish overall, no complaints! The Duck portion was massive and succulent, although it was definitely an ordeal to extract all the meat. Initially they said it would be around a 45 min wait but the manager(?) came out and moved a few incoming parties around to accommodate us, awesome service. Thus, we were seated soon after arrival. Recommend for sure!

I told her I have reservations. She tells me EVERYBODY has reservations. Um ok no problem. So we wait. 25 min later still no table. We don't get our table till 3:10. We get seated. Waiter doesn't come to our table till 3:30 pm. Exactly one hour after our reservation time. At this point we don't even have time for apps. We order our drinks and main meal. Meals come out 25 mins later. I got the blt sandwich but there is no bacon on it. I didn't even say anything because I couldn't wait another 25 mins for a new sandwich. It's a beautiful place, food was good, but the wait between seating is, the waiter, and the food coming in was just not worth it.

Such a wonderful experience with Maple Tree! I booked them for catering my husband's birthday…read more From start to finish, everything was absolutely fantastic. They were so accommodating, helpful, and responsive, and worked with us to tailor the menu to give our guests a great selection of options. We had pulled chicken, pulled pork, brisket, ribs, baked beans, collard greens, cornbread, potato salad, and mac and cheese and everything was delicious! The meats were perfectly cooked, tender, and full of that amazing BBQ flavor. The mac and cheese was creamy and delicious, and the potato salad was fresh and flavorful. You could really tell that everything was made fresh and from scratch. Our guests gave us so many compliments on the food, and we couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out. It was truly a pleasure working with them, and we really appreciated the care and attention they put into helping us create the perfect menu for our event!

Why is this place so hyped up???? Some of the worst bbq I ever had in my life. Ribs were rubbery,…read moredry, and super un flavorful, pulled spicy chicken just tasted like straight hot sauce. The pulled pork was just a mess, no flavor and wet(not juicy I mean wet). Beans were undercooked and really missed the spot, the brisket was grey genuinely the worst brisket I ever had. Cornbread reminded me of my middle school cafeteria, and not in a good way. Mac and cheese was the only decent thing on there but besides the food the staff was incredibly nice and food came out very quickly. Food was also very expensive which made no sense because for the quality and quantity there was barely any food. Would not recommended stopping here very overhyped for no reason. - Daquan out

The Watershed Kitchen and Bar is a gem tucked away in The Hamptons!…read more Smart, attentive service, quiet ambiance in the indoor area with a lively party atmosphere outdoors, with a live band. The food here is very high level. The meatball appetizer knocks it out of the park. The short ribs are extremely tender, no knife needed. The skirt steak is rich in all the right ways, lean, soft & expertly seasoned. A fantastic meal & experience!

I really want to give this restaurant a 4 or 5 but the service lacked today. My wife had called to…read moreconfirm if we needed a reservation for two and she was told no and that they would ensure us we had a table. Once we got there; with our luck, the restaurant was full and we had to wait a few mins because their system was down. Which is understandable. As we wait, the couple after us had made reservations for 2 and their table was ready. First impressions matter to me and there is no reason for inconsistency when it comes to reservations. Finally, after a few more mins, they found us a table. Once we sat, and we ordered some water, they decided to moves us again to another table. Now im bothered but I didn't want that to ruin my night. The waitress took our order for drinks and food. The whisky sour was ok and our wait for food began. The couple next to us had their appetizers and main entrees served before we even got our appetizers. I understand it may have been busy, but everyone around was getting there food quicker, lack of attention. We finally got our entrees and the dishes were ok. My duck was cooked perfectly but my wife's dish lacked some flavor. She had to be careful because the fish had fish bones and we had thought they had taken those out. As we waited for the food I noticed that the owner was walking around and greeting the customers and finding out how the food was. I believe that every owner should follow this man's footsteps because he was very attentive to all and I feel that he turned our experience around for the better. Once we finished, he asked us about the food and what brought us there. Conversation with him was great and easy. We mentioned to him that my wife and I were celebrating our anniversary and he surprised us with a dessert and coffee. This dessert was incredible and his sweet gesture made the experience so much better. I hope to return one day and give them another chance. I would say try this restaurant and make sure you make reservations because the restaurant is always full.
