What a great experience! The service was top notch. We never had to wait for anything, water was always topped off and the waiter was very attentive. We had a few drinks (The Doubtfire) alcoholic drink was really good and a little spicy. Perfectly mixed. The food was delicious! Good presentation and choices. Will definitely be returning!
If you're looking for a blend of excellent food and craft cocktails, Bridges Restaurant & Bar is the perfect spot! The moment I walked in, I was greeted by the host who kindly guided me to my party. Our server was very attentive and made sure every request was fulfilled. Most of us got the special lobster tail with ribeye steak and it was the best choice recommended by our waiter. The steak was juicy and tender and the lobster tail was a perfect match with the butter on the side. I also had the clam chowder with a nice creamy texture, absolutely delicious! The chocolate molten cake with salted caramel gelato on top was divine but the crème brûlée was a perfection. I had a small piece from by friends plate and had to order another one for myself. Overall, my first time at Bridges Restaurant & Bar exceeded my expectations. It was worth an hour drive and will definitely come back, especially for the crème brûlée
We made reservations for a Saturday night and were promptly seated when we arrived. It wasn't too busy around 6pm. Our waiter gave us the specials and took our drink order. I opted for the pomegranate sangria which was refreshing. We placed our order, I got the grilled salmon and my husband ordered lobster bisque soup and added a lobster tail and then got the fettuccine Alfredo. We waited for a really long time for bread to be served (I think we were going to get passed up) and then again a long wait for our meals. We were there for over an hour total time so it was very slow paced. Normally it wouldn't be a problem but we were trying to catch a movie and had given ourselves plenty of time but was starting to cut it close. Ambiance is very nice, always is!
It's been a while since my last visit. I was craving for a good juicy burger and they have been advertising weekly burgers so it was a worthwhile stop. Coming in a little after 12 noon, I was seated straight away. A sunny spot on their outdoor patio. Ordered the weekly burger at medium rare with a side green salad rather than the usual fries and ice tea. The burger definitely not medium rare as it was on the dry side with the fixings and mustard made it tolerable. The green salad was pleasant with a mixture of fruits, nuts and green. Together it made it a very balance meal. The wait person didn't come often enough to refill the ice tea glass, sorry to report. It was a nice sunny warm day on the patio. A bit disappointing burger as memory serves me in the past it was much more juicy. I may return to try other items.
It's been years since I've been here, but it never disappoints. We came with a baby and a toddler, which is always challenging, but the entire staff was really accommodating. We sat out in the covered patio and it was so pleasant. We were shielded from sun and wind; not to mention all the food the baby threw on the ground was easily cleaned. The menu was not overwhelming but still had lots of variety. The food came out quickly, which is always a huge plus when you have hungry kids. What we ordered: + Roasted Brussels sprouts - a nice mix of Brussels sprouts, onions, and bacon. + Shaking beef lettuce cups - tender beef in a slightly sweet soy sauce with hearts of Romaine lettuce cups. + Chicken Two Ways, Pomegranate Soy - a roasted chicken thigh over shredded chicken on top of brussels sprouts, red onions, and fingerling potatoes. This was very delicious. I only wished there were pomegranate seeds like the picture from their website. + Apple crisp a la mode - this was quite a generous portion and very sharable. It was warm and delicious. Highly recommend adding the ice cream. + Blueberry cheesecake - very tasty but I found it a little dense. They also brought out a couple of chocolate birthday cupcakes since we were celebrating 2 birthdays that evening. Overall, a wonderful evening.
