    Nice little spot with a couple tables to sit at. Food was pretty good, but overall a bit overpriced in my opinion for the amount you get. They also ran out of something in less than two hours of opening, which was a little surprising/disappointing. Feels like that's something easily avoidable. Overall wouldn't be opposed to returning but would rather check out some of the other spots around first before that point.

    The worker recommended the pork tacos. I almost cried with the first bite. The flavor profile was perfect. My wife and daughter each had brisket bowls. Their absolute new favorite thing in the world. Try the homemade tater tots. You will not be disappointed. I'm guessing by the quality of what we got, there isn't a bad thing on the menu.

    My wonderful pulled pork on their home made bun!!!!!

    Wow, just wow!!!!! I had the pulled pork sandwich and hubby had the brisket sandwich... both were amazing...very generous amounts of meat and they make their own buns!!!!! I initially thought $12.00 for one was alot, but after getting it, it's well worth the price!!!! This is not to be missed!!!!!

    It was dirty. If they took time to clean their indoors, maybe this would go up to 4, because the food and service were respectable.

    The Brisket Chili is really good, as was the brisket. Service is quick, friendly, and enthusiastic.

    Food was just okay. Brisket a little dry. Reuben meat chunky rather than thin sliced. Pricey considering quality.

We liked the decor, it was mine themed and had a lot of different artifacts and things having to do with mining. That's about where it ended. Our server was okay, she seemed friendly but wasn't very helpful with choosing what to order and very rarely came back to the table to check on us. The food took a long time to come out, and when it did it was mediocre at best. My husband liked the whitefish and sweet Potato fries, but said he has had better up there. My daughter barely ate her chicken and that is rare for her. I tried it and the breading was very crunchy and not flavorful. The steak is where things really fell flat. It is a petite filet mignon. So it wasn't cheap, but it had ZERO seasoning on it and was EXTREMELY undercooked. I asked for medium rare (described by their menu as warm pink center). I typically like more a of a medium but restaurants typically overcook steak so I went a little less. Now this steak was barely seared on the outside and was cool and purple inside. That was a RARE steak. We joked that it was still mooing. I was waiting for the server to come back so o could have them throw it back on for a bit but she never even made eye contact with our table. No refills on drinks or anything. When she finally returned I had eaten all my veggies and potato so I was full and asked for a box. I cooked the steak at home for a few minutes and had to add a decent amount of seasoning. I don't think we will be returning to Quincy's again.

    I just now remembered that I needed to leave a review. I didn't take a picture of my two delicious…read morefish tacos. Coming from Los Angeles and living here for about five years. It's been kind of rough finding a place to enjoy food that is fresh and not overpriced. I avoided this restaurant because I don't go out to eat Italian food being Italian. I'm super picky and I make enough Italian food at home that I like to go out and eat things that I don't normally make myself. But a friend of mine wanted to go there so we did and I'm so glad! I walked in and saw the black tablecloths and thought well it's probably gonna be overpriced and like most Italian restaurants I'm not gonna like the food but I will enjoy the company. The menu is filled with so many non-Italian options. Watching the food come out of the kitchen and go to different tables. It was hard because everything looked so good and presented so well. I hadn't had fish tacos in about a year other than the ones I've made at home and mine are not the greatest! Haven't figured out the sauce yet anyway these were unlike anything I've ever tried before, but definitely delicious. I ordered french fries because it came with chips which I thought was kind of weird. It still is kind of an odd option to go with fish tacos, but my girlfriend across the table for me got these homemade chips so much that she had to take them home and they're delicious! French fries were fine. They weren't anything over the top special but they were good dipped in their homemade blue cheese! So good! After everybody got there first entrée, I was so hungry and watching her eat her side salad I ordered one. It's not huge, but it's fresh and it's four dollars! Seriously I couldn't believe how good it was. I love blue cheese and when she told me it was homemade I was skeptical. Definitely delicious. All three of us really enjoyed our food. Our waitress was real attentive. The restaurant was not overly full, but it was busy. The inside is clean and beautiful. I found another gem! There's not many of them here, but this is definitely one of them! Looking forward to my next date night I'm gonna get my hubby to try it. He's gonna love this place.

Spaghetti was good, the ravioli was very tasty, a light flavor of nutmeg in the meat was a pleasant surprise. The roll had a flaky crust, and fresh and soft inside. My husband ordered the Korean Barbecue sandwich and loved it. The bread impressed him, and he's not a bread guy. Our second visit I ordered the Cudighi sausage sandwich, and again enjoyed the seasonings and bread. I ordered sweet potato fries, they were crisp and tasty. My husband ordered Philly cheese steak sandwich with waffle fries. The sandwich was decent. The waffle fries were crispy, but could have used more seasoning. If you're hungry, this is a good place to eat!
