    Great atmosphere-not too bright and warm enough-I hate being cold when dining out. Just a bit noisy but it was crowded! Food came out HOT which is very important to me. Second time having the land lollipops and they didn’t disappoint. Portions are good sized. Love the fry app.

    Unfortunately, we were seated upstairs in no man’s land despite reserving downstairs or the bar. Ambience 1star at the most. Should have left and gone to another restaurant. The hostess said we asked for outside which we didn’t. I rechecked my reservation and that wasn’t true. The food is good but the atmosphere was nonexistent.

    Its a noisy place but our table was in the window so okay. Live music was lovely and not imposing. Bar service was very slow. The BLTA was tasty, the chicken and waffles was delish and the rockfish was good. Generous portions.

    We had an early dinner outside on the patio, August 24th, only one other table was occupied, thus no noise! Wonderful dinner !

    Wonderful dining experience! Great location and food preparation, as well as service and drinks. Stop in for a meal or just drinks. This is Chreers of St. Michaels. We loved everything about our visit.

    Yellow and black interior? The glass front door was filthy and it was hard to ignore with the bright light outside. The loudest restaurant I have visited in years. Food was very good as was service. Prices were reasonable. The noise and the interior were a big turn off. There are many better options for an overall pleasant dining experience.

    To echo other reviews (pun intended) this place is loud. I like a good, energetic crowd but the acoustics are terrible so the noise was very grating for a dining experience. We sat upstairs which was much better - especially after two large parties left. Our server was very nice and welcoming but clearly new and not trained on bar ordering basics. It would’ve been nice to have printed beer and spirits lists. The rest of the service went smoothly and the food was very good! I suggest investing in sound dampeners and staff training.

    This is our third and for a while at least final visit. They just can’t seem to get a handle on service here - we sat for 15 minutes or so and still had to ask a hostess to send someone over. Our food was basic and so was therefore fine, but other patrons by us were dissatisfied with their meals. I’m surprised this place hasn’t gotten it together yet and hope that they do - we need a place like this in town.
