    Very pleasant at lunch, though a number of entrees were high priced for lunch. The prix fixe lunch was a great deal, but not enough options to make it viable for all.

    The halibut special was very good. The Caesar salad was subpar at best. There were minimal croutons and no dressing! The experience was not worth the price.

    This is my 2nd visit to the Loch Bar and there are still gaps in the experience. Service level is not where it should be for a “high end”restaurant. Food was good but servings were not commiserate with price. Shrimp cocktail which is $22+ contains 3 shrimp. When I added shrimp to my Cesar salad it was 3 shrimp. Very stingy with their servings. When I asked for the check I mentioned we were rushing to make a show at the Academy of Music. I had to search for the waiter to pay the bill and we then had to run to make our show. This is probably my last visit to this establishment - maybe I will come back to sit at the bar. The drinks we ordered were quite tasty.

    I joined a friend for lunch and we had a terrific meal. Our waiter was superb. He was friendly and helpful. I had the delicious burger which was one of the best I have had and a side Caesar salad. The burger was cooked to perfection. My friend had a lobster salad which she loved. We also had mocktails that were refreshing and delicious. It is a beautiful restaurant with great food and a warm and friendly staff.

    Went for the happy hour and got the best “bang for my buck” ever in the city. The sea food was amazing, the fried food was delicious, and the normal American food was quite good as well. The bevs were to die for and for the happy hour price??? Insane deal. 10/10 would return for the happy hour and 100/10 will be returning after taking a peak at the normal menu. Look forward to coming back for dinner.
