Past visits were excellent. Last night had Caesar salad with salmon. Salmon was not good. Salad was just okay.

We very sad to find out upon arrival that there was a set menu for the night. No where was it posted or stated when booking reservations. We would have chosen a different restaurant had we known. But even then, the food was very bland, not even enjoyable, and underwhelming for the price we were paying. Sadly, I will not be coming back.

Went for NYE. It was our first time at either of their locations. It was a set menu which we didn’t expect, but seeing that it was a major dining holiday, it wasn’t all that surprising. We had the shrimp cocktail, lobster bisque, rib eye steak, the poached monkfish, and we each had the cheesecake and wine pairings for each course. We’ve been telling absolutely everyone about this place since. We STILL rave about the steak and the wasabi based cocktail sauce. The service we got was so personal - our reservation was at 4pm so the place was pretty dead - and our server was more than happy to tell us all about the wine and the food and the restaurant in general. The pairings were PERFECT. Clearly a lot of thought was put into the choices for the menu. I’m going to miss the tailored experience, but I’m excited for our next date night here anyway.

Was disappointed as I have had wonderful meals at the restaurant in West Olive. Waitress did not put our appetizer order in but told us she did remove it from our bill (seriously - an apology would have been all that was needed). Menu indicated home made chips with burger, and I got Lays potato chips - seriously - at least kettle chips would have been better. Never refilled water.

I’ve eaten here many times and always enjoyed the food. Had fish and chips last night , was not enjoyable due to being greasy - maybe their deep fryer not hot enough - so will stick to other foods when I go back

I wanted to go to a nicer place for dinner tonight with some family. A lot of restaurants were booked full or just didn't do reservations/could have a long wait. I remembered that there was Sandy Point and checked their hours on Google and their website. Both said it was open. So I made a reservation through Sandy Point's website (which took me to Open Table) and I had no issues making a reservation for 7:30 pm tonight (11/30). We get there and it's closed. No sign on the door, no notice on the website, nothing. This was frustrating especially since I was able to make a reservation?? If they do this to you, go across the street to Garage Bar and Grill. It's a different atmosphere but has great food and drinks. Oh and they're actually open when they say

I think this is just a sign of the times and another restaurant being understaffed. Once they got a little busier there were longer periods of waiting for the server to get back to the table. The food was good but on the cold side. We were not offered dessert but some at the table were interested - there was one option and we had to wait a long time for it - but it came really hot (not very good for bread pudding though). I will go back - I just think all businesses are still struggling.
