My boyfriend said the bread was fantastic. We had the Valentine’s Day pre fix menu. I had the char broiled oysters which were good but a little too salty. My bf had the seared tuna salad which he said was good. For dinner I had the beef oso bucco with saffron risotto. I liked the beef not the risotto. He had the duck and again said it was good. Brownie dessert and poached pear dessert were just ok. The tables were a little too close for my taste. It was like we were eating with the people next to us. Finally the noise level was high. There was a large table next to us that was extremely loud and absolutely had too much to drink. I had to scream at my bf at one point for him to even hear me. That wasn’t enjoyable. It’s not the restaurant’s fault I guess but it wasn’t an easy relaxed dining experience. I might go back but I’m not really sold on this place.

A great Valentine’s Day Dinner. Never disappointed at Stern Bow. It is definitely our go to place. read more A great Valentine’s Day Dinner. Never disappointed at Stern Bow. It is definitely our go to place.

We didn’t have reservations but we’re seated right away. Service was good. Weordered steak and salmon. The food was good. The steak was offered with a side of mash and sauce there was more sauce thansteak. The salmon was fresh and there were no complaints. Food came out timely, and hot. No complaints. Has a mojito, thedrink was good but not great for a $16 dollar cocktail. This definitely would need some work. Also it would be good that aplace like this offer some type of breadsticks or some type of finger food, just seems weird that you sit there at an emptytable waiting for your appetizers to come without so much as a breadstick and oil. For a restaurant this side that should be ahospitality must. The bar looked great, will come back during the evening to see what types of drink they can serveup. Overall a good experience, good food, good service in a nice quiet location.
