    I'm so glad to find out they open back up for indoor seating and eating. I always find is never a busy place was just night was busy because it's Thanksgiving weekend and people were home to visit the family. We what is the house fried rice and a Pupu platter for one which ended up being perfect for the two of us I took my honey out that he eat after raving about the food from before Covid and when I will get back before the restaurants closing because of Covid. This night like before they had two people to diamond one waiter who is also the bartender who also took the autism phone in the main room for takeout and then there was one lady was doing the tea pots in the beverages and serving and then one for us in the kitchen cooking unfortunately this time the house fried rice came out cold and I didn't send it back but I figure they were busy because of COVID. The pupu platter everything was hot and fresh the egg roll was a little overcooked it was fresh inside to see wrapper was over cooked. Though. I would definitely go back there again to take my other half for dinner because I'm figuring that even if Cove it is still going on things will be different when it's not so busy in the restaurant.

    They were so accommodating adapting to food allergies for my wife and myself. The gentleman we spoke to spent 25 minutes on the phone helping us build our own custom #gluten-free meal options. We were also pleasantly surprised to know that they are currently working on a gluten-free menu! We love this place than

We called in and picked it up ourselves . I was dismayed though when I looked at the receipt - they are charging either 2 or 3.5 percent takeout fee - this frosts my buttons. The packaging on the food items was minimal- would have been the same I'm sure if we dined with n - so we were charged for putting it in a paper bag and being handed through a window? Much less work than if all of us ate there - you would have had to clear and wipe tables I'm curious if there is a done in fee as well - based on the fee I would consider not going here - we did a rather large order for 6 people and the fees add up

It was my first time visiting this spot, with an interior restaurant, and a walk up ice cream window. They offer a good variety of ice cream flavors, and have a nice outdoor area to enjoy your ice cream. The window attendant was friendly and quick to answer a few questions we had about some oddly named flavors. I got a cup of the "salted caramel chocolate pretzel", which was delicious! Incredibly creamy with lots of big chunks of chocolate covered pretzels mixed in. We enjoyed our visit, enjoyed the tasty ice cream and would definitely go back!

We placed our order at the window: * Sea Scallop Plate - $28.95 * Fish Filet Sandwich - (haddock) $9.50 That came to about $41 with tax, and they only accept cash. They have an ATM on the side of the building in case you're a crazy person who typically pays by credit card or phone app! We grabbed a shady spot at one of their many picnic tables. George's has plenty of seating, and a play area for children, both are very nice. They are dog friendly which is also great. Our food order was ready quickly. I carried the tray over to our table. We started by tasty some fries, which were hot and relatively crispy. And that's the best thing we could say about our lunch. The sea scallops were relatively small, and a little dry. The fish portion inside of a hamburger bun was tiny, my co-diner said the amount of fish was a joke. About a month ago we dined at Juicy Seafood in Worcester. The scallops there were excellent and the scallop basket which is similar to George's was $19.95. So next time I'm near George's Surf N Turf, I'm going to keep goin' by, and drive to Juicy Seafood if I'm craving fried scallops.

    I've been dying to try this restaurant after seeing reviews and finding out it's chef owned (yes!)…read more We had reservations on a recent Saturday afternoon at 3pm. The restaurant is small (only seats 48) so reservations are recommended. The restaurant is cozy and comfortable, there wasn't very many people while we were there so I'm not sure how loud it gets when busy. They have a full bar so I ordered a drink and my husband loves his craft beers and they had a few (but he always prefers if they have a beer menu so he can read the beer description). For appetizers we ordered shrimp cocktail and the meatball. The shrimp and sauce were delicious, and the meatball was HUGE (we almost could have a meal with that!!! The meatball came with lots of sauce and ricotta with 2 toasted bread slices (we devoured every bit!). For dinner we shared 2 entrees, we got the seafood casserole which came with choice of side (we picked baked potato) and a vegetable medley, and the southern fried pork chops that came with mashed potatoes and brussel sprouts. The food was so delicious we ate what we could and had to bring food home. Our server was excellent and very knowledgeable of the menu. This was one of the best places we've tried in a while. We eat out at least weekly and most places we don't go back for a second visit, but Lucky Dog Tavern will definitely stay on our rotation of places we love.

The sweet, smoky flavor, mustardy goodness isn't something I've found done as well anywhere else. And the fish itself was cooked perfectly. They paired the fish with the heartiness of the harvest grain side dish you see pictured. It was a huge serving, and I ate the whole thing because it was amaaaazing. My waitress was lovely and efficient, and I also didn't feel rushed. What made it a four star experience rather than 5 stars for me was the ambiance. The music was horrible--like 1980's big hair band type music. It was such a bizarre contrast to the rest of the upscale ambiance, which looked & felt more like a steakhouse. To my chagrin, it wasn't just one "off" song either...the awful selections kept coming throughout the meal. The music gave it more of a dive bar vibe, and it was so completely offputting that I left sooner than I otherwise would have. It honestly gives me pause when I think about coming again. And that's a real shame because I'd like to bring others here to share the amazing eats. I may try it again on another day. But if the music is the same, I'll be walking right back out the door.

There was no valet service, and the parking lot was already full, but we found a street parking spot very close to the restaurant. We were seated immediately at a window table overlooking the pond, one of Alicante's nicest features. We've dined here many times over the years, although our last visit was disappointing due to sluggish service. Fortunately, this evening proved to be a return to form. Ice water, wine, and warm bread arrived almost immediately as our attentive three-person service team got us settled. While the evening specials were tempting, we opted for two longtime favorites from the regular menu: Piccata di Pollo - $27 Shrimp Scampi - $29 Total with wine and tax: $84.53 Our entrées arrived promptly, hot, and beautifully prepared. The chicken piccata was exceptionally tender, complemented by a bright, flavorful lemon-butter sauce. The shrimp scampi featured perfectly cooked shrimp in a classic butter and garlic sauce that was well-balanced and not over-seasoned. As always, the portions were generous--enough that some of the chicken accompanied us home. After one less-than-memorable visit, it was nice to see Alicante back at the top of its game. Excellent food, attentive service, and a beautiful setting make this a restaurant we look forward to visiting again. Tip: Even though Alicante is on Route 16, you can park along the road. Be careful exiting the driver side, it's a very busy road.

We had the same server as the other tables and she never mentioned the specials to us, and we never got any bread even though we had to ask twice and still never received any.
