My dinner was going great until I almost swallowed a bristle that was hidden in my food. The waiter then tried to tell me “we don't accept tip online” as if I'm about to give a tip for an almost catastrophic result. I will not be returning ever again!

Our service was just OK. The table was never really cleared. We did not get everything that we ordered and some of the things that we did order were mediocre.

Great waitress, Gabby. Knew her stuff, checked on us many times. I got the grilled ckn salad. Ckn was tough and tasted like a ckn breast that had been reheated. Cheddar biscuits were good.

Made a reservation, was seated right away; the server was very attentive. My husband had the halibut special, and I had the Chesapeake pasta. Both very good!

This was a great early birthday dinner. Our server was Billy. He was wonderful, very informative and helpful. I will definitely be back to The Lodge.

I had lunch here with friends on a Saturday. The food was average, however the service was less than acceptable. The server was slow and would disappear for long periods of time. The restaurant maybe had 8 tables that were occupied and there were at least 3 people serving so there was no excuse for the poor service. Not sure that I would go back again.

The ambient lighting is so calming... The fireplace was so cozy and the bartender was a 10! Our food was good and plentiful and our server Bill was fabulous! Thanks so much for making my birthday complete

The food has gone down in flavor . The wait staff was ok. The manager was trying to be accommodating.

My husband and I had brunch for our date out. The service food and ambiance was great. Our waiter Mark took great care of us. He always catered to our needs while also being available for others. This was our second time being there but they had a saxophone player this time. It made the mood so romantic. I definitely recommend others to check it out and we will be returning again.

Sunday jazz brunch either excellent saxophonist! Sat in bar area with fireplace setting the ambiance. Vast selection of buffet with bottomless champagne/mimosas. Anthony the manager ensured anything that was needed. Food was scrumptious to include raw bar carving station and omelette station!!

Sandra

We went for the Sunday Brunch. OUTSTANDING! Great selection of food and everything was perfect including the live jazz musician.

A few of my items were very disappointing and the price point is high for what they offer. The dessert was awful, it was cake was cold and had the refrigerator taste but even so it was nasty and a $12 dessert should be excellent. The grits were awful, they are described as creamy but anything but. They looked and had the texture of a rice with no flavor. The crab dip was okay, too much cheese on top and very little crab dip but it cost $24. I don't think I'll return. For those prices I expect more

They were short staffed, so the quality of service was terrible. Luis and Elson did a great job on guest recovery, and the serverswereverypleasant. However this being our first time, my wife's birthday and the fact that she chose this restaurant, the first impression was not impressionable. The quality of food was good and this being restaurant week, the 3 course option was very reasonable, and the hibiscus drink was very delicious. Overall she enjoyed herself and that's all that mattered.

Understaffing greatly affected level of service. Poor communication between staff left large gaps in service. Checked in with our reservation and were left standing clueless for over 15 minutes while the host disappeared without a reason. Not our typical experience with The Lodge.

I went here on Sunday and had brunch and endless mimosas. The food and the mimosas weren't all that good for the price. However, our waitress was really nice. Neither the less, I probably won't come back for brunch though.
