While I wouldn't say Muggsy's is the absolute best I've ever had, it's still my favorite restaurant in town. They've had some creative menu changes recently, which I have enjoyed because I like to try new things, especially if I haven't had something like it anywhere else. The food is usually pretty good. The service here is alright. I don't know which server we had last time, but it did take a while to get drink refills. It seemed like they didn't have many servers working at the time, though. I think when Muggsy's gets busy, it can feel a little crowded. I do like the atmosphere, though. They recently re-did their bar area and it looks great.

Excellent night at Proud Richard's!…read more Start to finish, we enjoyed every minute. My wife and I try to go every time we visit from out of state. We made it for their Thursday deal on appetizers. We split the Mac & Cheese, Arancini and the Squash Carbonara entrée. The meal was spectacular. The food, as well as drinks, were all so flavorful. I consider myself to be a "Foodie" and the presentation was really great. Our server really took great care of us. We finished the night with amazing Pumpkin Crème Brûlée and it was something I'll remember for a long, long time. The team at Proud Richard's always treats us like family and we will keep coming back.

We needed up going over to the bar side for all our drinks (including water since she never brought mine). I also ended up taking others water and lemonade cups to the bar side for refills. We had to ask for menus and to place an order. It was absolutely pathetic! Never once did she apologize for the delay - anyone who has ever waited tables (yes, I did in college) knows you apologize for the delay and get people more drinks! Not once! There was another younger girl who was hustling - taking orders out, refilling things on the salad bar etc, but unfortunately, ours was set at a much slower pace. Her tip was not good and it was still more than I think she deserved. So disappointing since the food really was good!

We started off with the bread and calamari. The bread was so good. The calamari... quite possibly the best calamari I've ever ate. Then I ordered the halibut. The halibut was very good, great flavor and flakiness. The couscous that it was sitting on was strange, I've never had couscous before so I can't say anything bad, maybe it's just not my thing. Asparagus was very good, cooked perfectly. I snuck a few bites of my wife's steak and it was delicious, I'm gonna have to come back and get steak.

This review is long overdue... I came across Vele while on a trip to Springfield. Vele was…read morerecommended everywhere as a good place to celebrate an anniversary, so I quickly tried to grab a reservation. Vele is a popular place so they didn't have reservations available. I did a Hail Mary and decided to call them when they opened to see if they had any availability. I was lucky because they had availability around the time we wanted to visit. When my husband and I arrived it was busy which I expected because of the popularity so there was a small wait even with a reservation. That was fine because I was excited to check out the place. When we first sat down our waiter was attentive and friendly. The tables are very close together so you could overhear how he treated other guests, he was pleasant to everyone. I'm not sure when the shift happened but the waiter seemed to lose interest in our entire section because he barely came around after taking our food order. I was celebrating a wedding anniversary so I planned to have at least two drinks but was limited to a single drink because our waiter disappeared. The entree came out in a reasonable time and it was delicious. As the dinner went on we slowly ran out of water (he didn't come by to refill the glasses) and our drink. After the initial excitement of the drinks and entree we realized we'd been sitting 30ish mins without the waiter coming over. We wanted to wrap the entree portion and grab desserts. Earlier I could overhear our waiter asking other tables if they wanted to order dessert so I assumed the same would happen with our table but that didn't happen. It got the point had to flag down our waiter or someone else working the floor to get our check. Our whole dinner experience was almost 2 hours but that consisted of one drink, one water glass, and an entree. I ended up speaking with the manager because I wanted to confirm if they still had desserts available because it was an hour and some change before they closed so I assumed they may have stopped selling desserts but no. The waiter was just ignoring us. It was an odd experience and left a bad taste in my mouth. The manager was extremely friendly and apologetic but having your anniversary dinner soured was enough to want to wrap the dinner up. He did give us an anniversary dessert to go which was delicious which made this experience so unfortunate.
