    We were a party of 4 and 1 had Artic Char and loved it 3 had the Ribeye and all were cooked as ordered 👍. However the twice baked potatoes were not at all what we anticipated. They lacked thought in preparation and were very small-not a winner. Appetizer of deviled eggs were tasty but I think for $9.00 per order you should get more than one and a half eggs per order.

    We sat upstairs in the loft space for the first time- cozy but not quite as charming as being in the main dining room or veranda area. Food was great as always. Our server was excellent

    We had a wonderful meal. The service was attentive but not intrusive. The food was excellent. We were there on a very busy night with three private parties and a busy restaurant yet we would never had known. Plenty of staff all very helpful.

    We had a superb dinner last night: Beet and Burrata Salad, Beef Stragonoff, some tasty toffee dessert, a great mocktail. Will definitely return in the day for the view of the river. Also you can sit outside in a heated area near the river even in the winter. Our server was excellent, too!

    We had the mezze platter, pork shank and crispy mushrooms. They were all outstanding. We arrived a little early for our reservation and were seated promptly. Our waitress Kat wat outstanding, providing great recommendations on entree choices and friendly service.

    Disappointing experience today. Our server Andrew was great. No issue there. We came today for brunch, specifically because we saw Steak Frites back on the menu, which were our favorites before they were taken off the menu. I ordered medium well and as soon as my plate was put down I could tell it was not medium well. Very pink before even cutting into it. The plate was taken away and I waited while the rest of my party ate. Plate was returned and it was cooked but it was not great. The fries were good as was the Mezza Platter appetizer. Additionally, when I made the reservation online, I checked off birthday celebrations but they were not acknowledged. When we have gone in past for our anniversary it was always acknowledged with a card and some champagne. Just not up to our previous experiences here.

    Great restaurant, delicious food, fantastic drinks, perfect service. Started with deviled eggs and the mezze platter, delicious, espresso martini and beet it cocktails were amazing, brunch entrees were all on point, came out beautifully and were scrumptious. Lovely managers and host, great vibes at Waterman Grille. Highly recommended.
