“We were celebrating my husband’s recent successful cancer operation and we ran into Caesar, one of the owners, at the Amherst venue. He took the time to show us around and sit with us a bit! The staff was setting up for a wedding too. Caesar and his staff throughout the whole venue were so warm and friendly. Just such a beautiful and unique venue♥️Thank you Caesar and your amazing staff…truly memorable.“

“The food is always decent but the main reason to come in is to get martinis made by Emma. 10/10 always and she can take any idea you think of and turn it into the greatest drink you’ve ever had. Never had one I wasn’t impressed with. I always make sure I’m there for Martini Mondays with her!“

“Wish I had discovered this restaurant a year ago when i first came to Derry, I'm going to miss it when I go.“

“Two of us got the 🦃 Dinner. We both agreed it was not the best tasting 🦃 dinner, nor was there a satisfying 🤏amount of food served. My son was finished with his plate in a flash. His sister had ordered the baked, crab stuffed haddock. She enjoyed it, however, she tasted, and we all saw, no signs of crab 🦀 meat. My wife ordered the 🐔 chicken finger dinner with baked 🥔 potato. We all tried a chicken finger and all agreed it was the best tasting 🐔 fingers. None of us were satisfied with the quantity of food served for the price paid. I am assuming this is just another sign of things to come. Higher on the cost, less on the quantity and quality. Maybe because it was Sunday late afternoon? I must add that we do know alot of people who are always satisfied and recommend dining at T-Bones including our daughter.

“It was our first time there and truly had know idea how good it was. Blood orange cosmo martini definitely one of the best ever! my husband had the fresh made pasta with Bolognese sauce that was a 10 I tried the pad Thai with chicken which is so different than a traditional dish and that's what made it so delicious another 10. We like to try a new restaurant that we've never been to once a month and this one is a keeper“

“We had a great time. We did the little stroll through the lights which was perfect for our family. Then we had dinner inside and it was amazing.“

“My friends and I ordered a special, the Ribeye., w/asparus and mine had their specialty mashed potato. We all agreed how amazingly tender and cooked to perfection they were. Asparagus was the best I've had in a long time and the Mashed so yummy I kept wanting more.“

“Five-Star Service That Made the Meal: Thank You, Ashlyn!
I recently dined at Applebees and while the food was certainly delicious, what truly made the experience unforgettable was the impeccable service from our waitress, Ashlyn.
From the moment we were seated, Ashlyn greeted us with a warm, genuine smile and an upbeat attitude that instantly made us feel welcome. She was attentive without being overbearing, knowledgeable about the menu (offering thoughtful recommendations), and anticipated our needs before we even had to ask.
What really stood out was her ability to strike the perfect balance between professionalism and friendliness. Whether it was refilling our drinks, checking in at just the right moments, or remembering the smallest details of our order, Ashlyn made us feel like valued guests rather than just another table.
In a world where good service can be hit or miss, Ashlyn is a rare gem. Her passion for hospitality shines through in everything she does. If you’re lucky enough to be seated in her section, you're in for an exceptional dining experience.
Thank you, Ashlyn, for going above and beyond. We’ll definitely be back—and we’ll be asking for you by name!“
