We visited the restaurant on Friday night and we had reservations for 730. We checked in at 7 o’clock and was told to go to the bar and the hostess would come and get us when our table was ready so at 7:45 no one had came so I walked up to the hostess and she said that they were working on getting us a table that they would come back and get us or we could just come back and check so I go back into the bar at about 8 o’clock, I saw that there was two bar tables open, and I got back up and went back to the hostess and asked if they were first come first serve she said no but if you want that table we sit there since y’all have been waiting for a while. The owner of Rey’s just happened to be at the host stand and he was very rude when I asked about the Bar tables. He said oh no those are taken, and the girls at the host stand did not know how to respond.. the owner said we have other tables available and asked me why I didn’t let anyone know that I was ready to be seated..the owner of Rey’s asked why haven’t y’all come and got your table faster than this y’all should have come and let us know you were ready to sit down. I said we checked in at 7 o’clock. Our reservations were at 7:30 and we were told to wait in the bar and someone would come and get us when our table was ready. his response was y’all should have come and let us know that you were ready to sit down I said I did I’ve come and checked with my table or on my table multiple times that have been told that it wasn’t ready. The owner of Rey’s is very, very rude!

First time for dinner at Reys for Thanksgiving and we were not disappointed. The food was delicious. Turkey was a nice thick slice and not dried out. two slices of smoked Ham and all covered with a tasty, herbed gravy. Drinks were strong yet went down easily. Sides filled up the plate and refills of bread were given. Place was loaded with staff that brought bread and refilled water. Our server did an efficient job and made sure to communicate. She also had a personality. Overall, a good night and even complimentary valet parking. Would do it again and so should you.

A fine dining experience. Initially we were disappointed that our seating was not as requested by the front desk staff. We customarily dine here on Thanksgiving and New Year’s Eve and ALWAYS get seated in the Magnolia room. Seeing my disappointment, Mr. Arias made our evening complete by accommodating us. Thank you Mr. Arias. Happy Thanksgiving!

This was our second year celebrating Thanksgiving @ Rey’s. We requested a quiet area and not only did they accommodate our request our meal was wonderful! The turkey was so tender, moist & very flavorful. We love the Thanksgiving menu that allows you to customize your soup/salad, dinner, sides & dessert. The portions were plentiful so we had leftovers to take home. Our servers and service was impeccable starting right at the door. We are looking forward to returning next Thanksgiving.
