Customer Reviews
This is a good restaurant, not too far from the highway. They have some great dinners here, but sometimes we get pizza to go. On our most recent visit, we had pizza there and chose to dine outdoors, because it was so nice out Friday night. We also had a salad, and we decided to split it and the staff here at First & Last was kind enough to put it into separate plates for us, which was a pleasant surprise. Our server Kimora did a great job. All the staff we interacted with were nice.
We were really looking forward to our Lenten Friday night dinner, but unfortunately, this takeout experience was a major disappointment. We’ve dined in at First & Last Tavern before and always had a great meal, so we were surprised by the poor quality of this Margherita pizza. The pizza was incredibly over-sauced and soggy, to the point where it lacked any structural integrity. The only parts that had any firm consistency were the crust edges; the rest was just a mess. It’s a shame because we know the food here can be excellent, but this particular order really missed the mark for a takeout meal.
What a wonderful experience from the moment you walked into this restaurant it felt inviting ! I had my mother's 60th birthday party this past weekend and we were not disappointed! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was quaint and our server, Kayla was very professional and accommodating to all of our needs, excellent service! Curtis was very responsive to all my question though out the whole process and very accommodating with me coming in early to decorate. I highly recommend this beautiful restaurant from the food to the vibe to the amazing service and such a great team that works there, you won’t be disappointed 💜🫶🏼💜 we will be back and we thank you for making my mother's birthday that much more memorable 🎂
The food and the atmosphere was great however, the service inside of the bar was subpar we were understanding that It was busy the fact that we had to keep reminding the waiter/bartender that we needed appetizer drinks or even water was kind of discouraging. The facial expressions on the bartender/waiter was obviously revealing of either being shortstaffed, irritated or agitated with the fact that she was at work.
Service almost ruined this visit. It was about as unfriendly as you can get. Never checked back on the table once during the visit. Place was not busy. Thankfully the food was great! Turkey BLT Panini was a good size and tasted great. Blackened Salmon Sandwich was fantastic. It's a regular sized sandwich. Salmon was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. This alone was worth the 5 stars. Lots of parking and interior of restaurant is really nice. If anything First and Last, the server on our visit needs some friendly lessons. If the food was not as good as it was, the service would have totally been a one star review.
