★★★★★ 5.0 Cindy Demers · Aug 2025

We had made a reservation so we didn’t have to wait for a table, which was nice. We were a party of 5 so they sat us in a room off the main dining area, which was empty but we enjoyed it being quieter than the main dining room. The food was delicious! Specifically, the lobster risotto and fish & chips were amazing. And our server was excellent, very attentive. Highly recommend this restaurant!

My friends and I made a reservation for the Tinsel bar on a Saturday at 4p. Online it says they have happy hour and we went hoping for that. When we were sat the server didn’t mention anything about happy hour nor was there anything indicating they had that. My husband asked if there were any drink or food specials and the server said no just the holiday drinks on the printed menu. We didn’t push it because we assumed either a) they didn’t have it on weekends or b) they didn’t honor during the holidays. After leaving we found out they do in fact have happy hour every day 4-5p. I reached out to them and someone apologized and offered us to come back and we could get an appetizer or round of drinks or them. If I knew my server blatantly lied to a table I would refund a portion. This was a sp

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Bill Dorr · Oct 2023

We frequent the KRC restaurants and this was the last one that we hadn’t tried. To review this place is tricky because you want to be fair & understanding, but you sometimes have to be honest to call out the unacceptable. I’ll start there. The service was comical and non-existent. It made for a painful Fall dining experience. We left stunned, because the place had so much going for it. Adorable New England decor, with a very welcoming entry. Cozy fireplace, rustic warm and comfortable bar with many nice upscale touches. We were thinking that we were in for a good night. It proved that just a few key factors can ruin an experience and leave customers with a bad taste in their mouth. That said the food was very good. It’s a small place so it had a small menu. We liked every bite. The fish ta

We had a good time here! I’m posting very late - we went in shortly after the new year. I got a butternut squash soup, my mom got a prosciutto flatbread, my fiancé got a roasted chicken, and my dad got the American Smash Burger. Everything was delicious.

The bartender working last night treated us with open disrespect from the moment we walked in. He spoke down to my wife and cousin, rushed us to order immediately, and made it clear we were not welcome. We were told we couldn’t stand where we were, then abruptly instructed to order a drink and move to another room, all with an attitude that felt intentionally hostile. This wasn’t a misunderstanding — it was deliberate and dismissive behavior toward paying guests. For an establishment that presents itself as upscale, this level of treatment is unacceptable. The try-hard outfit and forced “I’m funny” persona only highlighted how unserious and uncomfortable the interaction was. Hospitality was completely absent.
