   First time dining there. The food was very good and portion sizes were good for the money. They did offer everyone, at that time, a complementary bowl of Felipe’s pumpkin soup. That was nice of them! The service however, def needs work. They did mention to us that they were short staffed, so we were very patient, but I did see that other patrons weren’t happy. They should have made eye contact with people and mentioned the delay or apologized. But it did take a long while for ppl to get their drinks and food. They had ignored us for a long time as well, but we weren’t in a rush. I noticed a few ppl leave before they were even served or spoken to. I don’t even know if the staff noticed or cared. I’ll try it again at some point to see if the sevice is better. The delicious food is worth a second try! May have just been an off night for them-I hope!

   Three of us dined. My lamb chops were good although a bit darker than medium rare. My mixed veggies were 90% potatoes which was very disappointing! My partner’s scallops were only fair but his risotto was tasty. Our friend’s mashed potatoes were delicious. The Affogato was very good as was our tiramisu. We did have an excellent server with Caitlyn. She suggested and let me taste a red wine that I did not know and so I ended up ordering a glass. Sangria was tasty. All in all the meal was fair.

   Another great dinner and music! We enjoyed the talent that singing on Friday night and our waitress Catherine was phenomenal. My only complaint is that they didn't have my Jam Jar white wine :( but the Expresso Martinis Catherine served us made up for it. As always I highly recommend!!

   I cannot say one bad thing about Nathaniel’s. Food always delish, and great service. I have been frequently this restaurant since the second week it opened, and continue to do so. The continue to try to improve events, dining experiences, etc. If you have not tried it, do so. You won’t be disappointed!

   We had an early dinner, so at first we were the only ones in the restaurant at 5pm. We were greeted warmly upon entering and being seated. Our server was attentive and friendly throughout our stay, and we took her up on her drink choice suggestion. Our drinks were great, and they came served with a blinking cube (well my date's was blinking, mine faded from color to color). Our food was delicious, we had the chicharron and plantains as an appetizer, and for main courses we had the baked scallop served over risotto, and octopus served over pan seared potatoes. Dining experience overall was very good. My only negative comment is towards the value. Most main course dishes are priced high at $30 or more, and I thought our drinks were a bit steep at $15 each. These are prices I'd expect in Boston or Providence, but not in Lincoln. Unfortunately, in today's economic climate, I can understand why this might be. Certainly recommend going, but make it for a special occasion.

   Great new restaurant! The menu choices were really varied and well thought out. The brunch options were great! The wait staff and owner both were amazing, nice and courteous. Definitely a great place to go and eat.

    Main food courses continue to be excellent. Not pleased that they served dry, hard bread to us beforehand. Good Sangria and choice of wines from a limited list. D on buy into the “we just opened” line our server tried to say as we were there in October 2023 during their soft opening. Apparently they continue to have service issues 9 months out. Hope they get their act together as they do serve some very tasty meals.
