The menu also has so many food options, making it easy to find something for everyone. The food overall was great and very enjoyable. However, I would not recommend the brownie and chocolate sundae dessert. The brownie and cookie were cold and hard, which made the dessert disappointing. On the positive side, the carrot cake was huge and definitely worth sharing -- easily enough for 3-4 people. The service was excellent as well. Our waiter was very attentive throughout the meal and made sure everything was taken care of. Overall, Second Street American delivers great food variety, strong service, and a family-friendly atmosphere, with just a few misses on dessert.

Disappointing plus not much in the way of tater tots. They didnt have the doggie menu I saw online which is why I came here but they did make up a beef patty with rice. My dogs ate the beef and played with the rice. And tap water was served which wouldn't have been so bad bit again it was served at room temp which made it taste odd.

UPDATE TO 1-STAR ORIGINAL REVIEW (2 days later): Were able to contact the exec chef who took this…read morequite seriously and made things right, assuring us that what happened was not nearly up to their standard. While we can't promise *you* won't have a similar experience, we can say that in this case the executive chef personally responded promptly to a respectful polite email and then handled it all very appropriately once informed. And for that alone, we revise to 4 stars. Perhaps ours was an isolated incident. Regardless, a big thank you to the executive chef for the response and swift refund. Much appreciated. We *think* any executive chef would want to KNOW what was going on, perhaps in their absence, right? YMMV. Thanks again. ORIGINAL 1 star review: New Years Eve dinner at Terrace Room. The photo shows "pan-seared" scallops with a ... risotto-like substance. Heh. $50. Uh huh. Scallops: No sear. Super chewy. Hard to even cut. Risotto was like mushy oatmeal stuff and zero seasoning or flavor. Maybe something was wrong in the kitchen, I dunno. Ack. We both ordered this and left most of it. Also a bottle of wine (white) that had to be chilled in front of us for a while before the server could/would pour it. Hm. $110 for that. Note: the *service* was excellent! It is never a waiter's "fault" when the food is awful. We tipped the excellent waiter accordingly, BTW. Just sharing our experience at this place on this particular night. Hope it helps. Be aware. Maybe it's "iffy."

For starters I got the French onion soup which came out in about 20 minutes. Soup was very solid and had more of a purée taste which was surprisingly good. The pasties especially the chocolate croissants were also delicious. After another 25 minutes the main dishes came out. I got the fillet which came with a peppercorn glaze (amazing!) and crispy potato pie. Fillet was cooked to correct medium rare temperature and tasted delicious! For desert, I got the cheesecake with raspberry! It was really rich and delicious! The raspberry puree provided a nice tart taste to go alongside the sweetness! Staff were very friendly and the service for this entire meal was about an hour thru. A very delicious place restaurant that I'd gladly come back to if I'm in the area!

We have had one successful sit down meal here where we got our food within 10-15 minutes. We have been getting to go orders from them the past few months. It takes at least 10 minutes to tell anyone on staff that you are there and waiting. Everytime we are sitting and waiting for our food for well over 45 minutes to an hour for orders that most the time are wrong. There is little sauce on the wings. UPDATE: 12/12/25 We waited a long time for our order again tonight. We had already been sitting for 25 minutes waiting for our food when someone came out and told everyone waiting that they had JUST put the wings in to fry. My husband watched a worker pull a wing out of a to-go box and eat it then walk away. My husband couldn't even track any worker down to say we wanted to cancel our order. Definitely not coming here anymore.

Arrived in town early morning to see if I could checkin early before the 3pm time. I have done this…read moreat other hotels if I arrive early. No one was at the front desk. Had to wait. Desk person was nice and cordial but made no attempt to help. Just no you can't check in right now. Not even a call us later and I can check to see if the room is ready and you can check in. Nothing. Went to my business meeting arrived at 5:30p for check in. Again no one at the front desk, no bell to ring for service, nothing. Nothing so waited again. Desk person arrived was nice and helped us check in. Came down a while later to buy some snacks and water. Walked to front desk to have items charged to my room. Again no one at the front desk. Again I had to wait. What was at the front desk was the check in form to someone who checked in a couple of rooms from mine showing a one night stay - like mine - charged $40 less than my $219. This annoyed me. This hotel is not worth this price at all. I booked it because I figured it would be comfortable, close to proximity, I could grab breakfast, and I'd get friendly service. Yes it's on me for booking here at that price but it really stung to see that less expensive price for exactly the same room, one night stay, and same floor room as mine priced out at $189 versus $219. Granted I booked about 4 days prior and the cheaper rate was not available, and maybe the other person booked way ahead. It just showed me how Holiday Inn cares about money egregiously more than true service to customers. I get it's a corporation out to make money but booking the same type of rooms at such a price difference just really pissed me off. Just rubbed me the wrong way. I tried to let it go. But, moving on to their free breakfast buffet. Usual hotel buffet breakfast fare of eggs, sausage gravy and sausages, pancakes etc. have had these before at other hotels. Generally these are not restaurant quality but you will leave with a full belly, EXCEPT at this Holiday Inn. I had some sausage gravy and eggs. Could not finish it. Sausage gravy tasted absolutely terrible, eggs had a weird texture and were watery. Breakfast closed at 10am. Holiday Inn kitchen worker came out a bit before 10a and was visibly annoyed that people were still there. Rolled her eyes and went to the back again. As soon as people exited she made sure she closed all the doors to end the breakfast buffet. Closed by 10am on the dot. No smiles no good morning. Just annoyed look. I recommend going early when the buffet opens. Maybe food will be better. As for cleanliness. It's borderline for its price point. I've stayed at least known motels that were cleaning all the time. This Holiday Inn was somewhat dirty. Elevator had wet floor from pool that wasn't mopped. I exited the elevator to my shoes then making a sticky sound every time I took a step. Lobby rugs needed vacuuming. I wouldn't recommend this Holiday Inn on Richmond Rd in Williamsburg or stay again even at the $189 price point. On top of it all the cleanliness was subpar. Poor customer service, high price, and bad breakfast buffet in my honest opinion. If you do plan on booking a room make sure you get a room rate of $189 or less for a double queen suite. Otherwise you will feel fleeced like I did. On a positive note, my room was comfortable and clean. I get it's Williamsburg and I chose this place for the convenience to where I needed to go. But I think next time I will just book elsewhere because the lack of presence at the front desk, haphazardness of leaving someone else's checkin papers there for all to see, the poor quality of food and just the lack of real customer service makes me give this location 0 stars if I could.
