After adding the protein, it was a little pricy, but I was really impressed with how it turned out! Although there was a long wait for the salad, the waiter was keen in giving updates and asked if there was anything he could do for us. He also didn't judge me for ordering a salad over some traditional eggs for breakfast! Once I got the salad, I ran a full inspection. The leaves were very fresh, chicken was cooked well, and there were anchovies! True Caesar! Overall, my girlfriend and I were very impressed with the meals we got there while staying over our two day staycation. Would recommend!

Service sucked. Staff did not do well with remembering things or working efficiently to help guest…read moreget in and out and to ensure staff wasn't wasting time. I ate breakfast here and I wish I didn't. The food was okay but the staff!!!! The table beside me asked someone who was cleaning tables to get the waitress. She cleaned and set 2 tables before notifying staff. Most staff weren't rude they were just oblivious. I say most because the greeter started my brunch on the wrong foot as she had to see if there was room for me after I explained I had a reservation. She also greeted guest who came behind me before getting to me. They she fully got them settled before telling me she will need to see if a table is ready. There are no breakfast items on the kids menu for brunch. The waiter provided an explanation/solution so confusing she lost 4 adults across 2 tables. I needed a coffee refill and tried to waive down 2 waitress unsuccessfully while mines served others coffee. My table needed a straw. We waited 10 mins as the waitress served others, forgot, bought us food, was reminded, served others again and eventually came over with a straw. It took 20 minutes to cash out. We needed to go items and it took forever to get the check, containers and a bag. Anyhow there is a small cafe connected to restaurant but it has its own billing and serving area. Just go there. The hotel also doesn't have a fridge. They have a cooler so don't bother with leftovers as they will spoil.

The prices for lunch were reasonable, and the dinner prices were on the pricey side. There were only a few tables being served for lunch, but then dinner time, the place was much busier. Service was overall good, but we waited a considerable amount of time at dinner for our drinks. The dinner drinks were all specials, inventive, and expensive. All of the dishes we ordered were all done extremely well. Excellent preparation, well seasoned, the right temps, and good portions. Dinner came we a couple baskets of bread, fresh and warm, with a specialty butter. The servers were attentive, personal, patient and helpful. We would come back in the future.

On any given day, I would have passed right by not knowing about the fun that awaited me. Salty Duck is not only a place to grab a beer with friends.

Next time I visit the area, I will definitely be back.

We had the pleasure of having Mike as our server. He was nice and knowledgeable. He made several recommendations, which we took him up on. We started off ordering cocktails. I had the white sangria and my husband ordered an old fashioned. Both drinks were just okay, but the star of the show is always the martinis, which was our next round of drinks. My husband also had a Moscow mule and he enjoyed it. For food, we ordered the calamari, filet mignon wontons, scallops and the red snapper. We enjoyed all of our food, but the dirty rice was a little too mushy for our liking, so we'd probably try something else the next time. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves, and look forward to visiting again!

They also have an outdoor screened patio with comfortable seating. I was interested in trying the sweeter Connecticut "Luke Bryan" cigar; however, they sold me the wrong cigar, which was quite disappointing. I ended up spending $35 on a smoke that I didn't enjoy. When I mentioned to the staff that I had received the wrong cigar, she apologized but did not offer to rectify the situation. Additionally, there is inconsistency in their pricing: the website price is $32 per stick, while in the store, it's $35. https://shorethingcigars.com/collections/stc-all-products/products/luke-bryan-exclusive-davidoff-grand-robusto

First time for our party of six here and we came for the band but will be back for the service,…read moreambiance, and food. We had a reservation because the band is a local favorite. We were at the best table in the house. We were a difficult party with three separate checks but no one sat next to or across from their spouse so amazing Josiah (sp) got all our orders right and our checks were all correct too! Being all retired, some of us are hard of hearing and he had to repeat himself several times. Also, we had lots of questions and special needs. Josiah handled us warmly and did an amazing job. Here is how good he is- the stage lights were shining right in our eyes and one of the ladies in our party asked him to turn them down. The eldest of us laughed at her saying the waiter had no control over the band. Next thing we knew, the band's sights and sounds technician stopped at our table and adjusted the lights for us. Wow!!!!

Chris understood what I wanted and the kitchen made it happened. Very good cut of prime rib and was finished the way I like it. Chris was very hospitable and his co-bartender, Ryan was always checking on me to see if I needed something. Both Chris and Ryan provided very good customer service. The prime rib was very good. Good selection of cut, cooked and finished appropriately. Very good flavor and easy to cut. Potatoes were also flavorful and soft without being too mushy. The atmosphere is a bit odd as the building was repurposed, but it doesn't take away from sitting at the bar experience. The restaurant tables are in an open room with a half wall separating the restaurant table area and the bar. Odd, but they make it work. I give food, especially the prime rib, bartender customer service and drinks 5 stars. I'd give the restaurant section a 4 stars for how it's laid out and how loud it could get. I'll round up to a 5 star on this review since Chris and Ryan did a very good job and the food was very good. I recommend Jake & Henry's for a good prime rib and good customer service.
