My wife and I decided to try Mabel Murphy's for a New Year's Eve supper and were really looking…read moreforward to prime rib and shrimp. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing. We started with the crab-stuffed mushrooms as an appetizer, but when they arrived, the centers were still cold. My prime rib came out barely room temperature, and my wife's was ice cold. Her broiled shrimp tasted more like cocktail shrimp that had been sitting on ice, while my deep-fried shrimp were cold, soggy and had a strong old-fryer-oil taste. Even the au jus for the prime rib arrived cold to the touch in the stainless cup, and the butter for my wife's shrimp was already congealing again. Overall, the food quality was absolutely terrible - some of the worst food we've been served at a restaurant in a long time. I do want to give credit where it's due: our server was wonderful. She was kind, attentive, and very understanding of the situation. She offered to comp the meal and even brought us boxes. We boxed up the prime rib with the intention of reheating it at home just to salvage something from the night. However, when the bill arrived, only about 30% was taken off and this was because they gave us a box and we weren't sending it back to have it remade after an hour and a half wait for our food On a $140 bill, that amounted to roughly $34 off - leaving us paying for cold, undercooked food that we had to take home and fix ourselves. We genuinely wanted to support a local business, especially on New Year's Eve, but this was a very frustrating and disappointing experience.

The total came to about…read more$170 for three entrées, a kids' meal, appetizers, several alcoholic drinks, and 2 desserts, which felt like a very fair price for a steakhouse with good food. I ordered the chicken sandwich without aioli, and I might have gone wrong with that choice because the sriracha ended up overpowering it a bit, but everything else was great. Service was friendly and attentive, and when it got busy another waiter stepped in and also made great conversation. The atmosphere was nice overall--dry-aged meats were on display, the tables were well set, and even the bathrooms were clean and looked really nice. It was a little cold inside, but not a big issue. Also, wine is half off on Wednesdays. Overall, a great spot I'd definitely go back to and recommend.

What we didn't like = price for the quality The spinach dip was saturated in butter floating at the top of dip. Fettuccine was also butter soaked. Steak special fillet was good. Risotto tasted like white rice mixed with cream of mushroom soup (college food). The ribeye was charred and had too much grizzle taste like the grill it cooked on was grimy and unclean. We spent near $400 on the dinner and left sick from the over butter and sick we paid that much for THAT dinner. Not worth the drive or price. Do not fool yourself that the drive will be an experience dinner.

The variety…read moreof drinks & setup of the taps means you can spend hours there without breaking the bank or having too much of a flavor you don't prefer. It is a small space so crowding could happen easier than at most establishments but I liked the size as well. There was only one guy running the whole space but he did a good job with the 20 or so people who cycled through while I was there. Of the small food menu only had the pretzel but it was among the best I've ever had! Hopefully a food place moves in that they can partner with to increase the possibilities for food beyond frozen pizzas & the pretzel. That is as close to a complaint as I had but the excellence of the twist made up for the lack of options.

Then my Wife ordered the Chicken LoMein and I ordered Sesame Chicken. The chicken in the LoMein wasn't fresh and it seemed to be missing a spice. It was just off.

When I looked at the bill it said I ordered Sweet and Sour. I purposely order Sesame Chicken because it contains Broccoli and I don't care for Green Peppers.
