   Wasnt a big fan of the open kitchen where you could see kitchen and waitstaff blowing noses, putting their hair up etc etc, then not wash hands, not to mention the noise of pots and pans and dishes being moved around. Had to wait 10 min for our drinks to arrive after placing the order. Put my empty water glass on edge of the table and finally another wait staff offered to fill it, our Server was very inattentive, husband ordered soup as an appetizer and it showed up right before the main courses. Server did not ck to see if we needed anything or if the food was good. He forgot our dessert order and had to be reminded and even then when he finally brought it he forgot the creme anglais I had asked for in place of the ice cream they didnt have after apparent freezer malfunctions the other day. The food was decent - the scallops were very good although the Cauliflower Au gratin was left under the broiler too long and was more charred than golden brown so I just ate the cauliflower itself from under the topping - I would have told the waiter but he never came back through for me to advise him and my other food was getting cold. The noise level in the restaurant itself was quite loud - definitely not a place you can have a quiet conversation. As for price point - the food items themselves by name warrant a decent price but the overall restaurant while trying to appear “higher end” didnt quite achieve it.

   Valentine weekend can be crazy. We were seated right on time per our reservation. The meal was fantastically prepared as expected. My only knock if there is one is the TV on the wall. It’s perfect for a sports bar but felt out of place in this setting.

   The food was excellent and served hot which I appreciate. We ordered the Chilian Sea Bass and the Scallops with sides of risotto and salad. We will be going back. We loved our server too! He made the dining experience special.

   Perfection! We had a reservation and were seated immediately, our wonderful server, Jill appeared within seconds to greet us and take our drink orders. Our food was delicious and she continued to take excellent care of us. The manager checked in on us and the evening was just perfect.

   We usually love Bristol’s. They removed our favorite Char crusted Tuna. The other food we had was just so - so. Service is always top notch. We will go back again and try other dishes but they won’t get many more chances if they are like this past experience.
