    Select never disappoints. The food is impeccable, the service is good. The lighting and noise level tends to be trying at times but not off putting enough to not go back.

    I can’t say enough about the quality of the food!!! One of the best meals we’ve ever had. I had the salmon, that was done perfectly, and my husband had the pork chops that were delicious. The service was superb and everything came to us promptly. I strongly recommend this restaurant for your next dining out experience.

    Food was good, a little salty, but lots of choices! It was cold every time someone opened the door, but that’s to be expected when it’s only 30 something! Lobster bisque was delicious and just the perfect amount.

    This is a great place for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Two things they don't have is live music ie. guitarist and a large bread selection. biscuits, bagels, rolls, but no banana bread, wheat bread, crackers and cheese or different bagels other than plane. That would be the difference between under $50.00 a head and over $60.00 a head. For being under $50 a head, what they have is great Between the two seatings in 2024, there were less people signed up for Christmas than Thanksgiving. It was almost elbow to elbow to walk around at that seating.
