   Good food and service. Went for happy hour which is only in the bar area. Bar was very loud due to a raucous group of guys. Hard to hear conversations across the table so if you want to talk get a table in the dining room.

   Hi Joni! Thank you so much for taking the time to write us a 5 star review! We love to know how we are doing, and very much appreciate the feedback : ) Guests certainly have their own levels of excitement and content, so I can understand how the bar area might get loud! We are aware of noise levels in the restaurant, and therefore know exactly where to seat guests that are looking for more silence or easy conversing during their visit. Hope you had fun! Happy to know your food and service were on point : ) Please join us again soon, and let us know so that we may make your visit most comfortable! Best, Angela Vigilante | Management Team

   Even though we had a reservation, we had to wait 15 minutes for a table. We were told that upstairs would be quieter than downstairs dining. However, the acoustics were such that a noisy party of four adults made it almost impossible to communicate with my husband without shouting at him. We each ordered a glass of the higher priced white wine in two different types. Both were nondescript. The food was good, but overpriced for what they were. We had a better experience at Bloom when we went to happy hour and had a couple of cocktails and some appetizers at the bar.

   Part of the dining area was closed due to damage from a recent burst pipe. Food portions were large and good. However, the server was not well organized in his duties.

   We were there for a birthday lunch and were treated to complimentary Prosecco! The staff were friendly and helpful, the food was really delicious. Especially enjoyed the fried oysters, short rib chili, and collard greens!

   Bloom’s food is exceptional! We shared roasted Brussels sprouts, fried chicken & waffle, and the shrimp & grits. Also, the martinis were delicious, they made the blue cheese olives for us! We will definitely be back and highly recommend this restaurant.

   Hi Pat! What an incredible review! Sounds like a beautiful time, and I love that you were able to try (2) favorites of our restaurant; Fried Chicken & Waffle, and the Shrimp & Grits! We will always have those wonderful dishes, but you can also look forward to something new; we will be updating ingredients for our Spring Menu - farm to table freshness always : ) Thank you so much for your feedback, and recommendation!

   We like Bloom and has guests in town we also thought would enjoy. Unfortunately their dining room was sealed off with plastic for repairs but the website did not mention it which was disappointing.

   Our server has terrible at his job, including a lack of urgency. The whole party agreed that even a 10% tip was extremely generous. Wish the service had been much better.
