Just about the best dining experience I've had in a long time.
Staff friendly, welcoming, and attentive
Waitstaff knowledgeable, menu fresh and current
Dinner was spot on
My boyfriend and I ordered from the daily special list
His pork chop and creamy grits- perfect
My crab cake and frites, perfect
Great local beer
We were super pleased.
Writing reviews isn't my thing
But this visit warranted a shout
So glad to have such a nice establishment in the area
Will be back and tell everyone who will listen to us what a great place this is
Decent place! I haven't been impressed by previous restaurants in the past, but I was excited to try the Clock Tower Grill. It's a cute place, but could use a little more warmth to it. It seemed very nuevo farm-to-table, as in it tried to be high brow with some out of place elements. However, service was warm and bubbly, and very fast without being obnoxious.
I was pleased with their drink menu, the only place serving a Dark N' Stormy nearby! Huge drink, strong and a reasonable price for what I received ($10). Bread was served in a rustic former ricotta can with European style butter with sea salt.
My sister got the duck, and I a roasted half chicken. My chicken was perfect and again very large for the price ($14), with crispy skin, fresh asparagus and a potato hash. The duck was a special, served in a maple bbq-type pan sauce and cheesy grits. I wish I had room for dessert, as it looked amazing, but I settled for an earl grey tea.
Overall, $65+ tip for two people, two entrees, two cocktails and two teas. I will certainly return.
