Not really the place you are going to get a bucket of Steamers and then a Two Pound boiled lobster…read more Well, we always heard about it. We've seen the advertisements on television. So we opted to take a day trip, drive around, and try the Red Lobster. The parking lot was packed. We circled about ten times before we caught someone leaving and waited to pull in. The building was huge, and had three main dining rooms. The service was great, our waitress made us feel at home. First and foremost, it heavily leans towards soul food. Everything is fatty and starchy. The real crime of the century is that everything appears to be microwaved, pre-packaged, and much akin to what you get at a eatery in Boston Logan Airport, Terminal C, without naming names... do you smell the OZONE? Hint hint. This prices are not bad, it is akin to a 99, or TGIF with a little more money added to any dish with the word "lobster" in the menu. Worth the trip, well, yeah because we can now take it off our bucket list. Would we go back, nah. However, they have a huge loyal customer fanbase.

Pretty decent convenience store grub, good prices and basic fare…read more I've been meaning to go to this location for a while now, but given that it's tied to a gas station and the hours were always a little weird, I never had a chance to give them a try. Today I managed to catch them late enough in the day to get something made, so I picked a few breakfast items to try. The location's not a pretty place. it's very much a gas station convenience store with a deli and a bench with stools. This is very much the place you go to when you're going to work and you want a quick bite to eat, and so long as you come in looking for that type of food then it works. The breakfast sandwiches were good enough. Eggs were cooked hard, white american cheese was melty and cheesy, roll was fresh, and the meats were cooked. There wasn't anything special about these sandwiches, but they were good for what they were. If you need a meal and want a basic sandwich, this place is more than capable of handling that type of request. The prices are actually pretty good, the portion is reasonable, and it's not bad. Don't expect awesome, but functional fare.

We tried the cornbread with butter and wow... super soft, a little sweet, and honestly addicting. The buffalo chicken mac & cheese was the standout for me. It was super creamy, cheesy, and packed with flavor. The buffalo chicken had a nice kick without being overpowering, and the bleu cheese added that extra richness. We also had drinks at the bar which were well-made, pretty, and not watered down (always a plus). Overall, I'd say this is a solid spot if you're in the mood for comfort food, big portions, and a fun, casual atmosphere. I'd definitely come back hungry next time.

It is a nice place if you want to actually sit and talk without a lot of noise or crowds. Great for a date or a relaxed evening where conversation is part of the point. It's priced higher than some other options around, so probably more of a special occasion spot than somewhere I would go regularly. That said, when I want a good meal with good service in a calmer setting, I would come back.

Five of us had a wonderful dinner at Trattoria da Lepri last night. It was our first time there,…read moreand we immediately felt welcomed into the cozy, understated, elegant space. It's much bigger on the inside than it looks on the outside. At 5:30, we were the first ones seated on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, and it was good we had a reservation because the tables filled up quickly. Before we even noticed that the room was a bit chilly, someone brought over a space heater to make sure we were comfortable. My mother uses a rollator, and we were pleased that there was plenty of space to park it in a corner near our table. Staff were super helpful in getting her situated. Our server, Nicole, was friendly and attentive, as were all the other staff. We asked if they could do a non-alcoholic cocktail and she said sure, do you prefer something sweet or something gingery? We said gingery, definitely not sweet. With just those instructions the bartender sent over virgin Moscow Mules with ginger beer and fresh lime in copper cups -- delicious! We started with house salads which were fresh and nicely dressed with vinaigrette. Then we had the braised beef & truffle pappardelle, roasted cod, vegetable & mushroom risotto, and the homemade ravioli du jour, which was stuffed with mushrooms, swiss cheese and leeks. The person who ordered the ravioli is a vegetarian, so the chef came out to tell him the sauce had a beef stock base and suggest other options. He went with a truffle sauce. As she was delivering our salads and main courses, Nicole asked if anyone would like freshly ground pepper or grated cheese -- a nice touch that a lot of restaurants don't do these days. We were all delighted our food. For dessert, we shared the ricotta donuts and the cannoli. The donuts came out piping hot, coated in cinnamon & sugar, with a yummy caramel sauce on the side. The cannoli with orange zest, chocolate and pistachios was also marvelous. All in all, it was a perfect evening. Superb food and service, great atmosphere, and attention to our group's special needs. I'd like to make this a family tradition every year.
