This is about my third or fourth location of Squires' that I've been to, and it's definitely the most modern and sleek looking one. From the outside, you don't get an idea of just how big it is inside, but it's big, and it's really decked out well with plenty of room for many large groups of diners.
We were seated almost right away, but the hostess was just obviously in some kind of rush, because she haphazardly placed our menus down - which dislodged the setting of the cutlery etc - and walked away without so much as an "enjoy your meal." Great start.
You're given an almost insulting amount of bread for each diner, yet having said that, it is delicious. The food came out in good time, but knowing other Squire's Lofts don't have a big serve of chips on the plate, we ordered a side more of chips between us, and the waitress never once said anything along the lines of "it might be too much ..." I guess we live and learn and will know for next time (we did try and cancel them once our main meals were placed in front of us, but she said it was too late to do so, even though chips are a staple with most meals there and they could have easily put them with someone else's order). Having said that, the meals were cooked to how we liked them, and the chips were great. The garlic sauce that comes with the salmon was incredibly disgusting, and I personally had to put it aside and couldn't touch it. It wasn't pleasant.
After dinner, the plates just sat there and sat there as staff member after staff member walked past without even so much as a glimpse at us or the empty plates (other than the nearly untouched bowl of chips still there). Eventually I had to call someone over to not only clear it all away, but to give us the bill/check. Funny how fast THAT came.
To be honest, my dinner wasn't anything I couldn't make at home. Sure it's nice to go out and have someone do it for you, but it's a teeny bit pricey and the piece of salmon was very small. I'm not a steak person, but I hear they're great and that's what you go there for. I would certainly not rush back again, though the location and parking are great. For me, there's many other places I'd try first before coming here again. read more
