We sat outside in what they call the "garden room." The ambience and lighting were cozy and…read morepleasant, and it was comfortably warm despite the 30°F temperature. Unfortunately, there was a strong cold draft at floor level, leaving our feet uncomfortably cold throughout the meal. The hostess was sweet and greeted us with a smile. The food service was unremarkable. Our waiter was not particularly friendly nor personable. The drinks were a weak start. The red sangria was poor. The bourbon cocktail was an odd mix of bourbon, apple cider, and other elements--an awkward, Frankenstein-style whiskey sour that simply didn't work. Worst of all, both drinks were served in thin plastic cups, which immediately cheapened the entire experience. I ordered the falafel sandwich and specifically requested a toasted bun. It arrived not just room temperature, but cold. I sent it back, and it returned burning hot... the bottom soggy... literally too hot to pick up... with no browning or color change, clearly microwaved. Microwaving is not toasting. At that point, the sandwich was inedible. I removed the bun entirely and ate just the falafel, which was dry and largely tasteless. At this point I knew coming back to this restaurant was a mistake. Food timing was another issue. The dishes took roughly 45 minutes to arrive after the drinks, possibly longer. We were all getting annoyed and what started out well when we first walked in turned negative. I wasn't impressed on my first visit years ago... and this second visit confirmed it. Between the poor drinks, cheap plastic cups, ridiculously long wait (with no explanation nor apology), and careless food execution, there's no reason to return.

Wonderful. This was my second time here, and it was consistently great! The bathroom and the diner,…read morelike last time were spotless clean. Kayleigh was there, like last time, and she was just great! Service and food here is really excellent. I had the salad bar again, it was the same items plus some surprises, like a Russian salad and pickled beets, yummy! The soups were chicken pasta, split pea, and pepper pot. The ladies were great about finding out ingredients. I got to meet the owner! He's a great guy, too. Just an overall warm, welcoming, relaxing place. They're close to motels and hotels, so there are people from all over stopping by, and there are lots of regulars who are hooked. You can tell why. You feel like it's another era. Lots of free parking. Salad bar food was fresh and delicious. Nice to smell freshly brewed coffee.

If you're looking for a place where the food never disappoints, the staff actually likes people,…read moreand there are enough TVs to watch three games at once and still miss a fourth, Copperhead Grille is your spot. The staff is always friendly and on top of it--no eye contact avoidance, no "I'll be right back" disappearing acts. Just solid service from people who seem genuinely happy you're there. Now the food: the wings are legit. Crispy, saucy, and dangerous in the "I should stop but absolutely will not" way. The burgers are equally guilty. Juicy, flavorful, and gone way too fast. Every time I come here I say, "I'll try something different," and every time I fail because the wings and burgers win again. And let's talk TVs. They're everywhere. Behind you. In front of you. Possibly in the bathroom (unconfirmed, but wouldn't be shocked). Perfect for watching a game without craning your neck or negotiating channel control with strangers. Bottom line: Great food, great people, great place to park yourself for a game and accidentally stay way longer than planned. Copperhead Grille delivers every time.

Our waitress was fantastic--attentive, patient, and on top of everything despite the chaos outside and the size of our party. The mozzarella sticks are absolutely worth the hype.

The restaurant is beautifully decorated and has a great atmosphere. I was surprised by how few tables there were though. The bar was more crowded than the dining room, which felt a little odd for 7pm prime dinner time. Service was excellent across the board. The host, our server, the manager, and the food runner were all friendly and attentive. The menu is perfect for sharing plates. The hamachi jalapeño with ponzu was fantastic, and one of the best bites of the night was the blue crab temaki taco. The food was pretty great overall, but at this price point I expected everything to be elevated just a bit more. If prices were about 20% lower, I think they'd really hit the mark. Honestly, that might be why the dining room wasn't full at 7pm on a Thursday. People want great service, a nice atmosphere, and reasonable prices. Here you get two out of three.

It's a decent lunch spot, not a spot I would rave about or necessarily recommend to someone looking for a Thai spot. But it was quick and fairly priced.

My friends and I had a reservation last Thursday at 6:15. We were warmly welcomed by the hostess upon arrival and promptly seated at our table. For appetizers, we shared the coconut shrimp, fried calamari, bacon wrapped scallops, and a crab cake. While everything was enjoyable, the standout was definitely the scallops. The bacon was perfectly crisp, the scallops tender and well-cooked, and the accompanying raspberry chipotle compote added a sweet and smoky touch. For my main course, I had the half pound lobster roll, tossed in rich brown butter and served on a perfectly toasted brioche bun. It was absolutely outstanding! I'd come back to Yoell's just for this. My buddy went with the surf & turf, which includes an 8 oz filet mignon, a 4 oz lobster tail, and jumbo lump crabmeat. Definitely a great choice, he was more than satisfied! The service wasn't terrible, but it was surely disappointing. Our server lacked friendliness and any sense of personality.
