After reading months of mixed reviews of Pine House Kitchen & Bar, my friend and I decided to give…read moreit a try. We walked in just after 8 on a Friday night and were greeted by two very friendly young women at the host stand. We opted to sit at a high top table in the lively bar area. Every seat at the bar was taken. Our server was friendly and attentive, and brought our drinks, $8 for a Sam Adams seasonal draft, and $15 for a Bulleit Bourbon Old Fashioned cocktail (which was mixed well and nicely presented, sans the anticipated Luxardo cherry). My friend ordered the Fondue Burger with truffle fries. The burger was cooked perfectly (medium) and smothered with a delicious cheese sauce sprinkled with fresh bacon crumbles - decadent and delicious. The fries are thin and crispy (the best way) and served in one of those cute little metal baskets with just the right amount of truffle. I had the salmon rice bowl which was better than I expected it to be. The fish was fresh and cooked nicely, (medium, although it could have been taken off heat a minute or two earlier, but not what I consider 'overcooked' by any means), and sat atop some very delicious coconut jasmine rice. The bowl also had a heap of zingy red onions, thinly sliced perfectly ripe avocado, a yummy mango salsa, and was drizzled with a very nice cilantro crema. Perfection. I ate the whole thing, felt a bit overstuffed and unable to taste the burger (next time!) I am very happy to report that Pine House Kitchen & Bar got four thumbs up from us, and I look forward to visiting again with family and friends.

I got the tomato jam burger and it was a 10/10- delicious bun and not soggy, great flavor combo, and came with good fries and the best pickle I've had in a while! My toddler enjoyed the chicken and waffles and my husband had the truffle mushroom pizza and fondue burger. Can't speak to those dishes because I didn't try them, but everyone ate well and was satisfied, which isn't easy with young kids sometimes! It was slow when we went (Monday early afternoon), but environment was calm and country music was playing at a good volume-enough to hear but not blasting. Will return in the future!

We started with a couple of delicious cocktails, enjoyed the smoked salmon appetizer, both had the wood grilled swordfish (which was tender and cooked to perfection!).

Our server was friendly and timely. We spent a lovely summer evening enjoying our meals and the spectacular view. Thank you!

This family owned distillery and blending house make delicious cocktails for every pallet type. We had a large group, so there were a lot of cocktails flowing, but the stand out one seems to be the South Side, a gin based drink which had the perfect balance of sweet and citrus. They don't take reservations but since we went at a time right before dinner on a Sunday (there were 15 of us!) we had the place almost to ourselves. I could see this place getting busy on a Friday or Saturday so maybe go with a smaller group than what we rolled up with if you want a guaranteed spot! Lentz_explore

The last time we went to The Common Pub for dinner, someone told us that a new cocktail place had…read moreopened just across the street. Well, a new place that specializes in craft cocktails is right up my alley. We walked across, found the door, and entered. I was really impressed with the interior space. It was cool and dark. Lots of places to sit with a small bar area where everything is made. The cocktail book is large and has a variety of offerings for every palate. The bartenders were very helpful to our friends who are new to craft cocktails. They stick with vodka martinis. I started with a paper plane, which was very well-made. I then tried one of their specials, the Fig Leaf Old Fashioned, which was fabulous. Everyone had a fabulous time, and we will definitely be back to try some of the Absinthe recipes. I hope my fellow Yelpers support a new cocktail place. We need more of them.

The interior space is similar to what it was previously. They have a cozy sitting area where they plan to showcase local musicians. The dining area is large, well laid out, and comfortable. The bar area was unchanged. It is a large bar with some high-top tables adjacent to it. We sat at the bar and were greeted by a cheerful bartender who was offering some special cocktails using locally sourced strawberries. I tried two different cocktails, and both were excellent. They were not too sweet and quite refreshing. They had a few specials that evening that all sounded excellent. The one that caught my eye was a special pork loin dish. It was a stuffed pork loin prepared with a unique sauce. It was served with an excellent carrot puree and asparagus. I truly enjoyed the dish and the evening out. I will definitely return and invite other Yelpers to try it out.

They are back open and I'm really happy about that. Better service and the food was amazing.read more

What a delightful little gem tucked away in Fall River, MA . Just a stone's throw from Battleship…read moreCove. Stumbled upon this place and discovered it was worth coming back. My initial visit was on a Monday night when they had all kinds of cheese specials for $10. Including a delicious cheese pizza. However on my second trip I discovered the real value was on their Sunday specials where you get a soup or salad, 1/2 portion of lasagna, a choice of chicken entree and a special pasta. All for $29. Needless to say there were doggie bags coming home with us. Dani our server was a sheer delight and most punctual with her attention to us. Needless to say I will be returning for a third visit soon!

We were here last night with a party of 17 for a birthday celebration. We had a 7:30 reservation…read moreand weren't seated until about 7:45, which wasn't a huge deal. Unfortunately, that's where things started going downhill. It took 30 minutes before anyone even took our drink orders. During that time we weren't offered water, bread, or asked if we had any questions. Drinks, which were just water and soft drinks, took another 15 minutes to arrive. Around 8:45 our server finally came to take our food order and told us the kitchen had asked her to wait before putting it in. By that point, one person in our group had already left to get Wendy's because he was tired of waiting. Once we finally ordered, there were still no drink refills. We asked for waters for the table and were brought five glasses with, "I have five waters, who wants one?" We had 17 people. It was just kind of unbelievable. Our food didn't come out until almost two hours after we arrived. By then everyone was hungry and thirsty. There were two kids in our group, and it would have been nice if their meals had at least come out earlier. Or bring us bread or something to hold us over. We also had to ask for salt and pepper because there wasn't any on the table. They brought one set for all 17 of us. We asked for another and eventually got one more set. I understand large parties can be challenging, but if the restaurant can't handle a reservation that size, it probably shouldn't accept it. The one positive was our server. She was very nice and seemed to be doing the best she could. I really wish I could say the food made up for the wait, but it was just average. Nothing was bad, but nothing was memorable either. Overall, it was a really disappointing experience.

Enchanting. If you…read morehave not been to The Franklin in Bristol, go! Open for just over a year, The Franklin is the newest inspiration from the owners of Groundswell... and stepping through its doors feels a little like falling down the rabbit hole into a wonderfully grown-up, decidedly French Wonderland. But what enchanted us most about The Franklin is that nothing about it suggests this kind of dining should be reserved for a special occasion. Quite the opposite. This is simply how dinner should be. You dine by the flicker of real candlelight, surrounded by a moody French Arts & Crafts-inspired interior with floral-spun linens and eclectic china, where flowers, pattern, texture, and shadow conspire to create something wonderfully transporting. It is romantic, eccentric, intimate and beautiful, but also remarkably comfortable. The effect is one of permission to settle in, put away the distractions, order another glass, and actually enjoy the increasingly rare pleasure of a long dinner and uninterrupted conversation with the person across the table. And THEN the feast begins. This is French cuisine as it was meant to be experienced: decadent without being excessive, luxurious without being heavy. There is a reverence here for food and its preparation by people who clearly love their craft; the ingredients, the techniques, and the rituals and traditions of preparing and serving a beautiful meal. Our evening began simply and perfectly with a bread basket and sweet cream butter. Then came the truffle croquettes, little bites of tarragon forward indulgences. The filet mignons were superb, accompanied by beautiful boulangère potatoes, rich, deeply satisfying and exquisitely prepared. And because the special truffle and lamb pastas sounded too glorious to pass up, we ordered each to go to enjoy for dinner the next day. Because no proper trip through Wonderland should end without cheese, we finished with a cheese plate that included local cheeses, honeycomb, and drunken fruits along with cappuccinos for dessert. The drinks deserve their own chapter. Our choices: Champagne, an elderflower apéritif, The Franklin Manhattan, and a beautiful Sangiovese were each superb, complementing the flavors of the meal. And through it all, the service was exceptional. The servers are consummate hospitality professionals... knowledgeable, intuitive and gracious, with that increasingly rare quality of people who not only excel at what they do, but genuinely delight in doing it. You get the remarkable sense that they take as much pleasure in presenting each course as you do in discovering it. AND, they speak freely and warmly of their employers' excellent treatment of them, which clearly contributes to the spirit of the entire experience-- VISION LEAKS!!! And perhaps that is what The Franklin gets so wonderfully right. Somewhere along the way, we began treating a long, beautiful dinner as an extravagance reserved for anniversaries and celebrations. The Franklin makes you remember that it doesn't have to be. Dinner itself can be the occasion. Real candles should flicker on the table. Linen should feel beautiful beneath your hands. Unique plates should be uncovered as you enjoy your dish. Drinks should arrive in lovely glasses. Dinner should unfold slowly. Food should be prepared with reverence. Service should feel like an old friend welcoming you to their table. And you should look across at your dinner partner and realize that there is nowhere else you would rather be. The Franklin is a little mysterious, a little romantic, a little eccentric, thoroughly French and completely enchanting. But more than anything, it reminds you of something we seem to have forgotten: a beautiful dinner doesn't need an occasion. A beautiful dinner is the occasion. We happily disappeared down the rabbit hole. We intend to do so again very soon.
