I am not a "fall off the bone" type of rib guy, but was advised they were. They were meaty and a bit too "fall off the bone", buy I was advised properly. Son had chicken fried steak. It was good and HUGE. Cocktails were spot on. Price was great for today's expensive and overpriced world. My son gladly took 3 boxes of leftovers back to college.

We always enjoy our time at "The Stag", including its more formal, supper club style, including…read moresigning in upon arrival, the lack of reservations, time at the bar before dinner, dark, dimly lit ambiance and interesting pictures on the wall. However, as with the most interesting places to eat, there is a certain way things are done here. First, you do not have many choices, and it's better that way. They know what they do well and they stick to it. First, you will have bread service and salad. The salad will be served as a quarter iceberg head, which you will cut up and apply three available dressings. The dressings can be applied individually, but are meant to be mixed. If done appropriately, you will have a soup of dressing after finishing your salad. I have never experienced a salad service like this anywhere else, and it is really fun to watch the uninitiated experience it for the first time. Second, you will get one of few protein options: beef filet, porterhouse, ribeye, or a few other, non-beef options, like swordfish, haddock, and chicken. Most people probably get the steak, and of any restaurant I have been to, this is one that you will get the exact doneness level you specify. Do not undercut your doneness to anticipate an overcooked steak - if you order medium rare, that is what you will get. The steak is delicious and is served from the open charcoal grill to your table via a charcoal heated platter, complete with a ladle of flavorful au jus. You can even watch the grill master prepare your steak; it is a unique and fun experience unlike any other restaurant I have been to. Third, you will receive a baked potato with sour cream and chives. Options aside from this are grilled onions and mushrooms. Fourth, you can get an ice cream drink for dessert, and that is about it. Very simple, very well done. It is refreshing to know a place that so understands their strong suits that they do not offer options they cannot deliver on. There are not many things left up to chance here. You will get the salad, you will get the potato, and you will get the steak or protein you ordered in the level of doneness you specify. And I am sure you will really enjoy the whole process.

I've been a regular at the Stag for 30 years, but I'm not coming back. We arrived around 4:30, and…read morethere was no wait, but they wouldn't seat us because all the four-person tables were full. We asked if we could sit in the other section, but they said no. We also asked if we could sit at a six-person table in the main section, even though 3 were open but they told us no and said it would be a 45-minute wait. So, we walked out and will never return to the Stag. When we left, we sat in the car for about 20 minutes looking for another place to eat, but no one else showed up during that time. The management at this place is terrible; they don't care about their customers who have been coming to their place for 30 years. Never again!

Sat on patio because the inside was packed for a Monday night. Tried several tapas for dinner, favorite was the bread service and Brussels sprouts.

Recommend the relish on the side if you're not into heat. Service was great tonight. I do want to mention the beer selection on draft is great since most are local.

We arrived about 45 minutes before they opened and there were already around 15 people waiting in line. Once they opened at 4:00 p.m., we were seated right away. The dining room isn't very large, but they have a great outdoor area where you can hang out while you wait. Classic supper club menu, and its true what they say as all the steaks come out drawing attention like the fajitas at a mexican restaurant, on a plate sizzling. All the food was great and the staff was so friendly! They mentioned it was definitely a slow night (due to the holiday) so glad we stopped by when we did! Will definitely be back to try some more of the menu!

The staff were knowledgeable and very professional. The food, however, fell short for me. The bread looked like it came from a grocery store, but the butter was good. I had the pork with succotash. It was not my favorite. The pork was ok. The sauce lacked flavor. The succotash had a somewhat bitter note. Not sure if it was old. My wife had the alfredo, that I thought was greasy. While it has a great atmosphere, the food could use a good bit of improvement.

Ok I'd like to chalk up the questionable sit to end of the season ...so I lowered my expectation drastically.

If I could change one thing -- the seasoning used on the cod was overly yellow and tasted like something you might get at the grocery store with a lot of MSG in it.

The snack was lacking cleanliess from a seafood POV-The martinis (2) were as requested but here was an issue w/pricing-not in POS. When I was leaving I noticed the cost for 1 (ONE) martini was $19-I had 2 and tipped $20 cuz I work in industry. I left paying $80 for overpriced cocktails, a poorly prepared appetizer & an inflated tip. The next day I noticed at the store; the entire bottle of gin selling for the same price as my 2 drinks-These were 3-4oz pours. I called to politely discuss w/manager & left a message. That's where everything went terribly wrong. I tried to ask what they charged for high end martinis-She gave me a price much less than I was charged. She then kept saying I need a ticket number or I can't talk to you any longer-I don't keep my receipts-She started yelling she needed a ticket number. Mistakes happen all the time in a restaurant-I've managed many-It's recovering with grace that truly matters-This could have been handled so many different ways. The manager was so inappropriate on the phone, defensive & rude. Its a shame as I live down the road & eat out often. But I learned my lesson-I'm out $80 but I won't make the same mistake twice-Check your receipts & ask questions before you leave-if you decide to try this place!
