Gave us THE COMPLETE wrong order. Everything was seafood, which I medically can not eat. We were also on a strict timeline tonight due to leaving tomorrow to get me to a specialist. We We told by a very sweet boy, thT the manager said it didn't matter if we couldn't make it bake there, no credit would be issued without returning the other plates..knowing we were first time customers. We had to do a quick reshuffle of our plans, but made it back. My FIL, the reason we even got plates anyway (part of his Father's day), had to eat alone. I have spent a lot of my life in restaurants, if you can't give credit..most of the time you can ..then a manager usually personally apologizes. This one never stepped to the front, answered my call, nor called me. The sweet kid that took the order was so embarrassed and apologized so many times. His MANAGER should have done that. Also, NO we weren't ugly, Hubby even talked the sweet kid down when he was upset. When you have a first time customer and a mess up, as a Manager YOU step up. An I'm sorry goes a long way. As for the food, once we got it, it was great. I mean not the fries though, they were soggy, who likes soggy fries?​

I dined for lunch at Cypress Hall in Downtown New Bern. The decor is great. I liked the exposed…read morebrick and high ceilings in the historic building. It also feels modern. One half feels historic and the other half feels modern with the artwork, mirrors, and finishes. The lighting is dim but you can still read the menu. It wasn't busy while I was there but quiet enough I couldn't hear other conversations. Initially the host wanted to seat me at the bar but when I declined, gave me a seat near the open kitchen. My waitress was friendly and helped me select the strawberry blonde to go with the strawberry salad. This was smaller than expected and just one or two strawberries. There was a little too much dressing for my taste as I forgot to order it on the side. I did like how the flavors came together. I also had the chocolate torte which was rich and decadent. I left here a little squeamish from what I witnessed. After all, I was seated at a booth table with a full view of the open kitchen. I noticed the food runner repeatedly touching his nose then the plates of food. I watched him reset a table and was touching the silverware by the tines, the part that goes in your mouth, rather than the handles. I'm not sure if the hands had been washed when he added by hand garnish to my dessert. I immediately removed the garnish but should have returned the dish to get it remade. Also, a table of six was seated then left a few minutes later and the glasses and silverware were not replaced while I was there, leaving me to assume they were not replaced for the next guests. I also noticed the restaurant had many cameras, so these hygiene lapses were likely recorded. For an upscale spot, these hygiene issues were disappointing. I truly enjoyed the flavors and the atmosphere, and I would be happy to return in the future if I could be confident that basic hygiene and service protocols were being strictly followed. I'd particularly love to come back and try the strawberry cake next time.

I like how they provide a pager so you didn't have to wait in front of the truck until your food is ready. The owner was friendly and helpful in picking out entrees. I ordered the Scenario sliders and husband ordered the CowDogPig sliders. Each one came with 2 sliders. The Scenario was good but I liked the CowDogPig better. The Scenario contained 2 thin beef patties topped with American cheese, pulled pork, slaw, blue cheese dressing, and bacon jam. The pulled pork didn't have much flavor, just slightly sweet. The combination of all of the ingredients and flavors made it taste good. The CowDogPig had thin beef patties, cheese, Nathan's beef hot dog, grilled jalapenos and onions, and bacon jam. I will definitely get the CowDogPig next time! The Scenario sliders were enough for me but husband was still a little hungry.

Our sever Anna managed all of our orders and checks perfectly which is no easy feat considering we're 8 couples whom rarely sit with our partners. Our drinks and appetizers came out quickly. Our entrees were served shortly after we finished the appetizers. And are drinks were kept full. All perfect timing in my book! I had the featured Char Su Pork Belly Bao Sliders. The pork belly was melt in your mouth tender and very flavorful. They were served on a light and airy bao bun. My husband had the Brown Butter Barbecue Chicken served over polenta. It's consistently a winner, because it's always so tender. If The Chelsea can handle our fun loving group on a Friday night, they can handle your gang too!

We had dinner there again a couple weeks ago and while he didn't get the ribeye he ordered, the ribeye he got was delicious. I got the Chinese-style ribs & slaw special. I almost ordered the duck special but I can make good duck at home. My ribs are hopeless. The server described these ribs as a small plate but I got 9 tasty ribs and the slaw was the perfect acidity to cut the sweet, heavy richness of the ribs. I generally don't care for 5 spice powder; it's usually too cinnamon or too cloves forward but these were perfect. Also, if you've never tried their South African Pudding, do yourself a favor and order it next time. It's like a cold bread pudding a bed of caramel and topped with whipped cream (but last night, it seemed like marshmallow cream). Never a disappointment and glad to have a great steak option in New Bern.
