For an appetizer, we ordered the tomato salad with mozzarella balls. We expected a Caprese salad with fresh mozzarella balls, basil, and delicious fresh tomatoes. Instead, we received a very small bowl with 6 hard mozzarella balls and 6 tomatoes in a pool of balsamic vinegar. While it was listed as a "small plate" on the menu, I expected more for the $7.00 price, such as more tomatoes. I was hoping that the main courses would make up for the disappointing appetizer, but unfortunately, we never had the chance to try them. When I tried to order a beet salad with grilled chicken instead of the fried option listed on the menu, the waitress informed me that they only had fried chicken and could not accommodate my request. My husband ordered the steak and we patiently waited for our dishes to arrive. After 30 minutes of waiting, the waitress apologized and assured us our meals would be out soon. However, after 45 minutes, and watching other tables that arrived after us being served before us, the waitress returned to inform us that the cook had overcooked the steak, causing a delay. After an hour of waiting and still not receiving our meals, we decided to ask for the check and leave. My husband, being the respectful man he is, paid the bill. While the waitress was apologetic, it was disappointing to see that nothing was done to try to make us happy. Overall, after this experience, we will not be returning to Dew's in the future. We hope it was just a fluke.
We had a highly recommended dinner at Dew's on Main with our beloved family. We enjoyed dishes such as Wu Chow shrimp, lobster bisque, lobster bombe, and seared salmon with a black and white cake.
Great food, wonderful atmosphere. Our waiter was a little late to pick up plates and checking on water. The food made up for it. We will be back! Reminded me of Va De Vi in Walnut Creek, California.
Went to the Chinese New Year Celebration. What a amazing time. Awesome service, fabulous menu. Food was amazing. Will definitely be going back.
