    We sat at the counter last night to a fantastic dinner made right in front of t of us. We love the counter to watch and befriend the 2 chef’s at work. I had the special halibut with a seasonal risotto and a sauce that was to die for. Absolutely delicious. Many things are spicy so just ask for less spice if you so desire. BYOB allows for the price to be very reasonable and the service was friendly, funny and so accommodating. Truly a 10 star restaurant!!

    Wonderful dinner tonight! Food was excellent as always, as well as the service. Only complaint would be the Boise level - just a little loud this evening, but overall another great experience. Highly recommend!

    Todd is an amazing chef and such a great guy. Love talking to him at the counter. Great service and food is why this is one of our island favorites. Also, very good value and I like being able to bring my own wine.

    Always a great experience. Don’t forget to BYOB….like not getting overcharged for a decent bottle of wine. Food A+.

    Opening night for the season and they are already full steam ahead. An amazing meal with a taste of some of the staple dishes- Linguine with Quahogs and a tuna tartare special. Can’t wait to go back soon for breakfast as well.

    Having been to Black Eyed Susans many times for breakfast - I was surprised to see they offered dinner. I truly thought it was a breakfast joint. After looking at a the menu for Stroll - I decided I wanted to go. What a hidden gem. Best kept secret on the island for sure!! Food was FANTASTIC. Service was Fantastic. The Atmosphere was Fantastic! Overall experience was amazing. Like I said - best kept secret on the Island. Look forward to going back in the summer!!
