The treatment my husband and I received at this Flaming Crab location on February 13, 2026 is…read moreirreparable We are not occasional guests. We are loyal patrons who have frequented this establishment for years and even chose this location to host our rehearsal dinner. Because of that history, what occurred during our recent visit was not only disappointing -- it was unacceptable. We visited to celebrate Valentine's Day. After being seated, I ordered a passion fruit mojito, a drink I have previously enjoyed at your restaurant. When it arrived, it was immediately clear that it had not been prepared properly. There was no muddled mint, virtually no mint flavor, minimal passion fruit taste, and an overwhelmingly sour profile dominated by lemon and lime. A single mint leaf floating against the glass does not constitute a properly prepared mojito. I informed our server that I did not like the drink and requested a different cocktail. I did not ask for a refund. I simply asked for a replacement. The manager approached our table and stated that refunds on drinks are not given. Again, I clarified that I was not seeking a refund -- only a different drink. What followed was a prolonged and unnecessary debate. The manager questioned whether anything was actually wrong with the drink, pointed to its color as proof that passion fruit was present, and suggested that if I did not like it, I could have a beer or soda instead. When I requested a margarita instead, I was told it would "taste the same," despite the clear and obvious difference between a rum-based cocktail and a tequila-based cocktail. The conversation became argumentative over a $10 drink -- something that should have been resolved in moments with a simple replacement. My husband, who owns a restaurant himself, attempted to explain that we had recently visited and I had received an excellent mojito made by a male bartender. The manager responded dismissively that there was no male bartender on staff. That was beside the point. The point was that the drink had previously been made correctly and this one was not. By the time the manager agreed to have another cocktail prepared, the experience had already been soured. We chose to leave rather than continue what should never have become a confrontation. In doing so, the restaurant lost the revenue from two full meals -- all over an issue that could have been resolved in seconds. When my husband, who owns a restaurant himself, explained that disputing a minor matter was costing the business far more than the drink itself, the manager stated he was "just doing what the owner told him to do." If this reflects ownership policy, it is a policy that prioritizes rigidity over hospitality and ultimately harms the business. A rigid, defensive approach over minor issues does not protect revenue -- it drives loyal customers away. Additionally, the tone and resistance we encountered left us uncomfortable and questioning whether assumptions were being made about us as customers. Whether intentional or not, I would also be remiss if I did not address how the interaction felt. The tone and resistance we encountered left us uncomfortable and questioning whether assumptions were being made about us as customers. Whether intentional or not, that perception alone is troubling and warrants serious reflection. We did not expect special treatment. We expected reasonable customer service. Instead, we were met with defensiveness, inflexibility, and dismissiveness. We have supported Flaming Crab for years. After this experience, we are reconsidering whether we will return. I trust this matter will be reviewed thoughtfully and that corrective steps will be taken to ensure future guests are treated with professionalism and respect. Patricia W

With limited spots in the area to eat we found Sycamore on google and remembered passing it on our way up. The ambiance is lovely with Tiffany lamps hovering above the tables, clean crisp linen tablecloths and rich wood tables. The servers were friendly and we were seated right away. We were Just grabbing sandwiches but the entrees all seemed delicious. Well thought out meals that appear to be concocted to treat the palate. We started with the sausage dip. Something different we hadn't ever had before a mixture of cheese and sausage served with Bavarian pretzel rods. Very similar to a chorizo queso - but not spicy. Our chicken cheese steak and buffalo wrap were brought to us quickly. They were on the smaller side than what we are used to but they were made with intention and served with plenty of fries. With both indoor and outdoor seating a bar area and dining room. Sycamore is a nice place to pop in while exploring the area.

The salmon came out beautifully seared, with a crisp skin and moist, flaky interior. It wasn't over-seasoned, just lightly herbed and citrusy, allowing the freshness of the fish to shine. The polenta was creamy and smooth, almost like a rich, buttery mash with just the right amount of savory depth to complement the salmon without overpowering it. The real surprise was the green beans--they had a nice bite and were sautéed just enough to keep their bright color and flavor, tossed with a bit of garlic and maybe a hint of lemon zest. It's one of those dishes that feels hearty without being heavy, and you leave the table feeling satisfied but not stuffed. I'd definitely order it again, especially if you're in the mood for something clean and comforting.

The ground lamb didn't overpower the already expertly executed hummus and added fantastic depth and richness. We also sprung for the grilled calamari tubes and the chef did a great job of not overcooking while achieving an excellent char. We shared the baked cod and the spice was delicate and perfect. Using cured lemon was a very clever idea as the sauce was not too strong but still had depth; the saffron and turmeric were well balanced. The fish itself was NOT overcooked and flaked perfectly. The vegetables were also executed well and cooked so they could be eaten with the same bite. The star of the show was still the cook on the fish with the wonderful sauce. The sever gave us some Moroccan mint tea which was also wonderful. We will be making the drive from the Maine Line to just to dine here again.

My friends and I had a reservation last Thursday at 6:15. We were warmly welcomed by the hostess upon arrival and promptly seated at our table. For appetizers, we shared the coconut shrimp, fried calamari, bacon wrapped scallops, and a crab cake. While everything was enjoyable, the standout was definitely the scallops. The bacon was perfectly crisp, the scallops tender and well-cooked, and the accompanying raspberry chipotle compote added a sweet and smoky touch. For my main course, I had the half pound lobster roll, tossed in rich brown butter and served on a perfectly toasted brioche bun. It was absolutely outstanding! I'd come back to Yoell's just for this. My buddy went with the surf & turf, which includes an 8 oz filet mignon, a 4 oz lobster tail, and jumbo lump crabmeat.

This time, I confirmed with the waitress how it would be prepared, but what came out was completely different, filleted with a tomato based sauce, peppers, and onions. I told them that was not what we discussed and made it clear I'm allergic to tomatoes. I was told it wouldn't be a problem to make the fish I actually requested. Instead of remaking the dish, they took the same fish back, removed the toppings, left the tomato residue and brought it back out with the same side; including cold rice. After I clearly stated an allergy, serving the same fish with the tomato residue is unacceptable. This was careless and disappointing. If a customer mentions a food allergy, the dish should be remade, not modified and sent back out.
