Fabulous music on the outside stage! Killer band. Jazz, pop, R&B.

Matthew Bridges

Excellent restaurant! Great food and drink menu. Love the live music.

Great food, good service and good appetizers. We had a party of 16 and they served us seamlessly.

We've been going here regularly and never had a bad experience. It can be a bit pricey but lots of options. Service has been first rate and never a problem with the bill.

Our server, Clayre, was wonderful, the food was fantastic, however, our reservation was for noon for brunch and the brunch menu was done at noon. Would love some flexibility.

We were there to celebrate my birthday. We sat at a high top in the bar. Tia, the bartender, was always attentive and friendly. The food, 4 different meals, was excellent and presented well. And we ordered 4 different bar drinks which were all tasty and delivered in a timely manner. The restaurant was completely full but we never felt “abandoned” by Tia. We would recommend this restaurant to others.

I booked a reservation for two on a Saturday night at 6:00 PM. If we didn’t have a reservation, I don’t know if we would’ve been seated. Upon arrival, we were seated within 3-5 min. and were greeted immediately by a server, whom I can’t recall his name. I had the Steak & Frites with a glass of Sangria, while my boyfriend ordered a Ribeye. We were pleased with the quality of food, especially for the price you pay (approx. $45). We were also pleased with the live music not far from our table, which was just the right volume. Wish I would’ve gotten pictures of our food, but I was too hungry! We will definitely be back next time we’re in Holland!

The service was great. Could not be happier. Unfortunately the food was cold. I had the short rib stroganoff and it was cold. My friend had the regular ribs, and it was cold. My parents had the fish and chips, and the fish was mushy and not fully cooked. I can understand when a restaurant is extremely busy and the cooks are working over-time to get food out. But this was 2:00 pm on a Sunday and there were only 6 people in the restaurant - five of us being in my party. Most likely I will not go back again.

I’m still getting over the sticker shock. I got two small mixed drinks (pretty sure they were six ounce glasses) and a regular salad (not a meal. Just some lettuce, a bunch of red onions, very few slices of beets, and a sprinkling of bleu cheese. No protein). The bill was $42. I double-checked. No mistake.

The atmosphere is nice, but I’ll twice before returning. The value just isn’t there.

The food and service was excellent. The table we were seated at was a two top in a high traffic area between the bar, kitchen, and two other seating areas and it was really hard to have a conversation so we ate and left. Before we sat we did ask if we could move to an out of the way high top, but were told it was reserved (we also had reservations through Open Table). Next time we'll request a specific table or room with our reservation or wait until another table becomes available so we can hang out and enjoy the ambience which is usually wonderful!

We had a great table for 2, out of the way and with view of singer in lounge! Our food was good; however, I have eaten much better. Our server was attentive.

Bobbi

We were disappointed. The restaurant is very cute and appealing. But they messed up our order. Brought entrees before appetizer Brought salad after entree Brought regular instead sweet potato fries And the veggie burgers we ordered for our meals were not good. We didn't even eat them. But most importantly- they weren't even apologetic!

Richard

We enjoyed the live jazz music on a Thursday evening. The music added to the ambiance of the dining experience. The beet salad, with arugala and feta cheese was delicious. I had the Mississippi short rib with mashed potatoes and asparagus for my entree. Also nicely done. We topped dinner off by sharing a decadent piece of chocolate cake. Service was also attentive and friendly. All in all, an excellent dining experience. We will certainly return on future visits to the area.

Glenn

The food and service was fine. But the noise level is totally out of control. We will limit our returns to this restaurant because it is just too darn LOUD. They need to put in sound absorption panels on the walls and ceiling. I suppose carpet would help also.

First time here, service was excellent. Choice of drinks was above par. Many to chose from! Had the bang bang shrimp, they were out of the Whitefish, which we were really hoping for? Had a couple of the specials, the pork and the tacos. Both excellent, finished with Tiramisu. All excellent hand made! Thanks Sandy Point.
