1776 was a true delight! We spent the 4th of July here 🇺🇸. The food was truly an inspiration. Our waiter Josh was an absolute gem and sweeter than sorghum. We will return and request him as our waiter every time. Love this place.

The building's layout may be a bit inconvenient, but the energetic staff and creative dishes make up for it.

The scallops appetizer remains a standout, while entrees like the black cod special and blackened snapper have received praise. Some dishes, such as the meatloaf, may be hit or miss, but the attentive waitstaff, including the chef and owner, are responsive and caring, quickly addressing concerns, including allergy issues. Recent reviews highlight outstanding food and knowledgeable staff, with some mentioning that allergy-friendly options are clearly marked, making the experience worry-free for those with gluten intolerance or allergies. The restaurant is a great spot for a date night or special celebration, with sound buffers allowing for comfortable conversation. Despite minor hiccups like dishes needing a touch of salt or a missed opportunity for a celebration acknowledgment, customers find the food excellent overall. The menu changes every 3-4 months, ensuring a fresh experience. The quiet, friendly environment and attentive service make 1776 Restaurant a memorable place to dine.
