My spouse had the scallops which came with parsnips (the parsnips were not shown on the menu) - the scallops were salty and the parsnips were woody and undercooked. I had the harvest linguine - the linguine was overcooked. Instead of a "cream sauce" there was some type of paste. there were a fair amount of mushrooms and cranberries which completely overpowered the linguine. For a Saturday night I would have thought they would have had their "A" chef, but apparently not. We have eaten here numerous times and it always seems to be hit or miss on how the food is prepared.
Had a great meal with even better service. The server let us know the fall menu is coming out soon.
We had a very pleasant experience in Herbie's outdoor patio on a beautiful evening. The service and meal were both excellent.
Had an unfortunate experience that has yet to be resolved even though day time manager said situation was not acceptable. 7:45pm reservation on the patio for a group of 6-7 and our first round of drinks did not arrive till 8:25pm. Three out of the four food dishes we ordered had arrived, before our drinks. Followed up with the server once to check in on timing for the drinks, was told bar was behind. About 10 minutes later drinks came out. Asked if we were still getting the full charge for these as we waited quite a while and had been fully served our food. Was told that was up to the manager however the large party service charge would be removed from the bill. Once we received our bills, we noticed the large party service fee was still on there along with all the drinks.
Called next day (Sunday) to follow up on the situation and give feedback. Day time manager said that the drinks situation was unacceptable and that the evening manager will be in contact with me to resolve. She even said the bar is fully staffed on Saturday evenings, so that should have never happened. I unfortunately have not been contacted by evening staff and am disappointed in the willingness to resolve the situation. At this point no one from our party would go back.
Love Herbie's. This was an off day. I ordered eggs Benedict with hollandaise sauce in the side. It came out as normally prepared with the sauce on the dish. My wife asked for specific ingredients in her omelette. Wasn't asked if she wanted it or not, but it came with cheese inside and melted on top. She didn't want cheese and didn't order cheese. Otherwise, all was good.
This was a great brunch for a family member's birthday. Great food, service, and location.

We read the reviews before booking Herbie's. Limited menu selection. Food was okay. Nice outdoor area paired with a beautiful evening made it a nice dinner. Portions were generous but I much preferred great food, smaller quantities than a Cheesecake Factory feeling.
Salmon and Brussels are delicious. My wife said her burger was also very good. The bread pudding with carmel sauce was outstanding!!
Best patio and brunch choices. Food was great and so was Derek. We also took advantage of the bottomless mimosas. Definitely a neighborhood staple.

We have been there MANY times since they moved (and before). They have hired multiple executive chefs. I think they can't decide upon the clientele they want to attract. A couple of visits ago, their classic Wellington (my usual since the 70's and as a kid, before) had been changed so much I have vowed to never order it again. The meat, the sauce, the contents of the sauce, and the shell were ALL no longer classic. We were there again on 19-Sept-25 to hear a friend play guitar... as we always do. The dressing on the Ceaser Salad was on the cusp of uneatable. Fiends at two OTHER tables (there were a bunch of us) also found the salads they got as not acceptable. This is strange since over the years I have eaten perhaps over 50 such salads with nary a complaint. I might also add that removing the two little private rooms has changed our brunch options. We have been regular brunch customers since before the name Herbie's got employed (and then a move). And before the Wellington disaster, we were regular Wedding/Birthday celebration customers. Shame on BOTH accounts.
Very Exceptional . Besides me and the wife forgetting our leftovers, it was a wonderful experience. Great service also
Decent cocktails and friendly service with a good apps menu.

Our group of colleagues had a lovely dining experience. Herbie's is a reliable restaurant. Great service!
Had a great brunch on the patio. We decided to split the everything burrito and bennie both were prepared great. We did the bottomless mimosas so we're there for a bit and never felt rushed.
