3.5...This restaurant is located in the lobby of the Yorktown hotel. The lobby is very pretty and…read moreeverything was clean. Although there was only one other party seated near us, it was a little noisy as the bar was fairly crowded. Service was slow, it took us a while to get our drinks and each one came out individually. The menu was very limited. A few appetizers, a few salads, two sandwiches and only five entrées. I ended up getting a burger as nothing else appealed to me. It was overdone, but tasty. (Would have been even more tasty if it was medium rare!) The bread basket was brought out just after our meals were served, which was pointless. This would not be my choice of restaurants if I were making the plans, but it was still good.

Friendly service and great ambiance. It's a beautiful space and hotel. I ordered the Pennsylvania…read moreDutch Apple Dumpling with apple cider cream. I asked if they had any Vanilla Ice Cream as it wasn't on the menu and they did so purchased a scoop to go with my apple dumpling. The kitchen was slow and took way to but they did have to bake the dessert. They did add some extra ice cream as it took about an hour. I do think they forgot about me at first and the bar tender had to run back at least two occasions to check the kitchen. The service from the bartender and the dessert were perfect. That season dessert was so good and highly recommended it.

Rockfish Public House is located right on George Street, a few doors down from the Appell theater…read more The second floor of the parking garage (which you access from Philadelphia St) actually connects right to it, which is so convenient. Our server,Jaden was just wonderful. Bubbly, and super attentive. We had a large party and many asked for "no onion, dressing on the side,..." and everything came out correctly. We all loved our meals. The place was packed and all the waiters were hustling around. A great experience, and I recommend! I have to add, that we were all looking forward to taking a York Peppermint Patty, which were in a basket by the front reception when we arrived. An hour and a half later it was completely empty. If you're going to offer it, you need to refill it- just a thought.

You see, back in 17th century England, private houses would open their homes to the public and sell food and beer. Hence, public house. Over time, they dropped the "lic house" and just called them pubs. Because you never dropped the "lic house" makes me think that you haven't evolved like you should have. And frankly, your food is proof. In fact, it even made me nostalgic. But not in the way you might think. You see, I loved making fun food concoctions when I was a kid. My sister and I would watch this corny show called "Zoom" on Maryland public television, where the kid hosts would make recipes sent in from all over the country. We'd make homemade peanut butter cups using Jif and semisweet chocolate chips. Or weird sandwich combinations like pickles and potato chips and cheese and jelly. The seafood egg rolls weren't the worst part of my meal, but they were definitely sophomoric--as if a kid chef-in-training was asked to whip something up from Chinese food leftovers. Seafood should never taste fishy, yet these did. One bite hit me like something that had been sitting a little too long above the waterline. Not to mention, they were laying on a greasy glob of some mayonnaise accompaniment disguised as a fancy garnish you'd see on MasterChef. One word: Ick. The ahi tacos. Oh boy. My mind fills with seawater the moment I think of them because they tasted as if they had been fished right out of the ocean and then placed on my plate. They were wet. Soaked. Drenched. The gelatinous seaweed clump on each taco wasn't culinary-forward, just unappetizing. I took one bite and wished I could spit it back out, but I reluctantly swallowed it. My esophagus is now aquaphobic thanks to you. The moment the coconut jasmine rice hit my mouth, my tastebuds took the red eye to the coconut tree haven of the Maldives. Normally, this wouldn't be a bad thing, but the rice and coconut had no cohesion. It tasted like my younger self dumping a handful of shredded coconut--the sweetened kind my mom kept in the pantry for the wool on her Easter-shaped lamb cake--into a cup of microwaveable rice. The only redeeming aspect of our meal was your kind, charismatic waiter. He was lovely in every way--attentive, sweet, and helpful. He would have been an incredible host on "Zoom." If only his personality made the food taste better. For your sake, I hope you learn to evolve your kitchen's offerings beyond the amateurish trio I experienced. If not, your restaurant's bones may end up fossilized alongside every other place that couldn't adapt.

Suffice it to say I wanted to have one great meal with hubs to close out our nay-cation. I haven't been to the Paddock for decades. This was a great place for an excellent seafood dinner. Best jumbo lump crab cakes - no filler here. The filet was butter soft - extremely delicious. The shrimp were large and juicy. And the scallops were great. Our waitress Connie was great. In fact all of the servers were - they took empty dishes / glasses when they were walking by. The price is what I'd expect for fresh seafood and delicious steaks. My filet / crab cake was a special that came with 2 sides for $58 - was worth every penny! I also had a bloody mart which was very good as well! Will bring hubs back again when we are in town next time.

I quickly found out that one month after my visit, the owner of this establishment was captured on video in an apparent road rage incident yelling expletives at another person and repeatedly saying "your 1/2 N word brother" as an insult. He then looked directly into the camera and said "I am a racist" when pressed about using such a derogatory word. He held a press conference to apologize afterward but it was only because he was caught and this revelation was affecting his business. As a woman of color I am deeply offended and will never patronize this restaurant again. Thank you to the yelpers that alerted me to this
