Took my Aunt out for dinner and it was an excellent meal. The Prime Rib was done just right and the croissant was delicious.
Honey croissants are soft and sweet, the blooming onion is crispy and sweet, everything they have is delicious and on point. This place is really amazing, definitely recommend it!
Had a great experience here. Staff was friendly and courteous. Helped in letting a first timer know what were the best options. French dip sandwich was superb!! Thanks for recommendation.
We had dinner here tonight it was pretty delicious our waitress Ashlee was very friendly and had such a positive attitude.
I haven’t had a bad experience here yet. You can tell they take pride in the business Food is consistent each time we frequented. Tonight we had Kacie as our waitress. As busy as she was, she was fantastic! Friendly, professional and attentive. I highly recommend trying this place if you’re in town! Good job Kacie for making our night out extra enjoyable!
Such a nice classy , clean , & presented restaurant. Loved the options of food on menu, waitress came over to check on us more than two times & was friendly. Hostess seated us within 10 min after coming in check this place out
For great food in a family friendly environment, you must try Chestnut Grill. There is normally not a long wait and the staff are super friendly. The restaurant has been around for a while and could use some upgrades but the food is always fresh and flavorful. I would highly recommend the soups and the fried green tomatoes. The pork chops use to be my favorite but they have switched to small thin pork chops instead of the thicker cut choice that tastes way better. The seafood platter is always a hit. Definitely grab dessert if you have room for it.
Amazing steaks and an overall great experience we had with our lunch. Our lunch had a Sirloin and a Ribeye and both the pieces were medium well done as per our liking and was delicious. The staff was very warm as well. They offered us an complimentary desert that is the cheesecake which was simply amazing. DO VISIT and enjoy your steaks here...
10/10 recommend the fried green tomato BLT club and the sweet potato fries! Best sweet potato fries I have ever had. The sandwich was amazing. The clam chowder was good too and I loved their sourdough bread. Our server Roxanne was very attentive and took great care of us!
I get the chicken salad to go, which is awesome! I usually add a desert which is a bit pricey but also very good and not easy to find (tiramisu or lemoncello cake. They are closed on Mondays but worth going out of your way for 😊
