    Lobster claw on hand for size

    The menu had a lot of local lobster options. We were traveling through the area on vacation and the restaurant came recommended by a local we asked for recommendations while shopping nearby. Known for their jumbo lobster however there are options for the non-seafood lover as well. The lobster portions varied in size by pound to meet any need. The lobster also had many options for preparations hot, cold, butter, cracked, full, etc. There was plenty of parking and likely a hot spot during prime season. Upon entry to the restaurant the aroma of stale lobster greeted you. The service was good but slow and the reastraunt was not crowded with less than 10 percent of the tables full. We had dinner at the restaurant but took key lime pie to go. The key lime pie tasted like it had been basted in lobster water since it was precut, wrapped in plastic shrink, and stored in a clear glass turntable in the main dinning area. There were signs posted for happy hour specials for the day and time we were there but the server said they did not have a happy hour. We ordered a 3.5 pound lobster full with butter, after a long wait it arrived chewy and watery.

    Gets a bit noisy when busy, but don't be put off as the the lobster specials are pretty good. We liked the 'lsxy man ' options that save you having to deconstruct the beasts yourself. Good choice of other seafood and meat dishes too, something for everyone really.

    This place is pretty good. Went with friends that had the lobster rolls and they said it was really good. I had the grilled salmon which was a good size, but I wish it had a bit more flavor to it. It was slightly bland. Their side of veggies was good but the portion is on the small side. Service took a bit of time but everyone was friendly. We had a party of 9 and they were able to seat us quickly on a week night.

    THIS WASNT A SIDE SALAD. THIS WAS MY WHOLE SALAD.

    Too many drugs among staff. Food was really sad. Obviously frozen captains platter and haddock. Long time fan but won't return.

    The food was mediocre. They burned the potato skins. The lobster roll was ok, I've had better. The service was good.

    Friday Night: we were driving up to the lake and decided to stop to get something to eat in…read moreConcord. My son looked on his phone and came across Barley House. We were able to park close by and get in before the big crowd. Barley seems like a happening place. An upscale Irish Pub, for sure! The set up is a bar with a decent amount of restaurant booth seating. Of course, there were tables of different sizes available, as well. We were given a 10 minute wait after meeting with the Hostess. There was alot of activity around the bar and lots of drinks coming out of the bar well....always a good sign! When our time was up, we were quickly escorted to our table. We were each given a menu and a drink menu. Lots to choose from on both menus (see the pic below) I ordered the chicken sandwich with caramelized onions and my son ordered a Chicken Pot Pie. He had a beer and we both had water with a lemon. The food came rather quickly. I was immediately taken back when the caramelized onion was not on my sandwich. I was going to ask the waittress to fix it but it was far to busy and it was not a big deal. Of course, I would have enjoyed the onion but "no big deal". My son's Chicken Pot Pie was a good size and was thrilled with it. We both ate everything on our plates. Our waitress checked in with us a few times to refill, which was nice and came to take the plates away after we were finished. We did not get any dessert. To be honest, we did not see a lot of dessert plates coming to other tables, either. We were thinking maybe people leave to get ice cream at one of the nearby establishments. 5-Stars Price: Fair Parking: plenty near by Vibe: perfect...I would like to watch a game, someday, at the bar Pepsi/Coke: Coke Would I come again? Sure...we enjoyed ourselves and the food and service was excellent

Everything our party of four ordered was a disappointment, starting with an ice-tea cocktail that was undrinkable-- our nice waitress took it off the bill. My grilled salmon on a bed of rice arrived as dry as the Sahara, surrounded by burnt roasted carrots -- at least I think that's what they were. My husband's steak he ordered medium rare was also way overdone, served a block of with cold mashed potatoes. The overly sweet Apple Pumpkin Bisque (for $9) went uneaten after each of us tried a spoonful -- it was more like a bowl of pie filling than soup. Even the dessert, bread pudding with some whipped cream, was gloppy and unappetizing. This is a great place to go if you are fasting.

The presentation was wonderful and it will keep me coming back. I knew that there wermany other things on the menu, but I'll come back for this again and again. Two of us had the coconut curry soup and literally had to lick the bowl to make sure we du DMP t miss one drop of this. The other in our party had the salad And enjoyed it completely. The two others had the scallops and were very impressed. One of our party has a tomato allergy and they were careful not to have it on the dish. Then came dessert time. I called ahead to make sure they had carrot cake because i had read great reviews on it. It certainly lived up to those reviews. One of our guests was too full for dessert, but managed to get a spoonful of both of ours. My friend had the Boston Crean tart, and we all declared this a winner also. They were very accommodating as I had booked for four and had to call them before we came in person's plane was delayed. When I asked, because of the reviews I had read, if they would have carrot cake that evening, and the gentleman said as long as I'm here we will always have carrot cake. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants a delicious, well prepared and well presented meal that is as fresh as can be. The service is wonderful and we will be back.

It was 4 savory courses and one dessert course. Everything was so delicious and fresh!! The service was also amazing and very timely.

I would definitely recommend going and getting the 5 course tasting menu if you're looking to spend a bit more for an amazing food experience.

    Wonderful little lunch stop!…read more It was full of locals and regulars and on a wait for lunch. At that moment I knew I had picked a good spot! We chilled with the folks up front for a good bit before getting a table. It seemed we were the only people that had not been here 30-40 times before. Most people didn't even want menus and the sweet server ladies just brought them food without conversation at all. It's kind of old school feeling inside. It's an open kitchen and you can see all of the action. Inside is all wooden and rustic. It reminds me of my grandmas house in Camden TN. Not sure why. It's just really comfortable in here to me. The tile and fireplaces make super cozy. This place has some of the best chili that I have had in a long time. I dig the fact they give tortilla shops automatically with the chili. Win!! Thick and meaty and oh so filled with spice and love!! Cheese on top was a nice touch too. Really liked it! My French dip was fucking killer!! So damn big too! I could only eat half of it because of the the fire ass chili I had already eaten. French fries were battered type. Nothing wrong with that!! I drove around with this sandwich for two days of travel and ate it on the road later. Stupendous French dip!! C had an open faced roast beef sandwich. FIRE!! The green beans were so pretty and fresh too. She could barely get 1/3 down, lol. It was a ton of food. Economical! Hometown feel! Good people working and eating here! I love it!! I'm not even sure I could find the place again. I sure am glad I did the first time! '26 -39
