Good atmosphere but the food was lacking. The steaks where a bit on the lazy side and under cooked for the price. Took them a bit to serve us. For $180-$200 dinner, without drinks, I expect a little bit more.

Good food and drinks and the outside patio was a great spot for our group.

My wife and I stopped in for a last-minute dinner. The food was ok but a little pricey. However, their calamari was too rubbery for our liking. It took a very long time to receive our entrée but it was tasty. Our waitress was great. Clean and welcoming atmosphere.

Paul Martin's has always been enjoyable, but a Sunday afternoon it was nearly empty, which was great. Sat at the bar and met new bartender Brandy (i?) and OG Alexander (I'm serious). Food was good, drinks were good and ambience very comfortable.

The lunch special is a reasonable deal, pizza flavor was good. Overall decent location for pizza or salads, alcoholic drinks available as well. Parking is always a challenge at the Spectrum, they don't officially take reservations.

Food- For appetizers we got the calamari, cheddar biscuits, and cesar salad. All were just underwhelming, fine. Edible.
The spicy chicken sandwich was the worst I've ever eaten. I couldn't eat a second bite (and nobody questioned that). The two people who ordered the French dip enjoyed it. Much of the food was too salty including the burgers. The desserts and drinks were the highlights.

Service- the waiter was nice, but never introduced himself. He never checked back to see if anyone wanted another drink after the first round. He never inquired whether we enjoyed our food or needed anything. Dinner took a ridiculously long time, almost 3 hours. There was a lot of waiting. Waiting to order. Waiting for food. Waiting for the check.

Kid-friendliness: Nice kid's meal.
