**Dining at Blackfly: A Mixed Bag of Experiences** Blackfly offers a vibrant atmosphere and exceptional food, making it a noteworthy dining destination. The restaurant boasts a well-curated selection of spirits and impressive culinary dishes, such as the lobster croquette and filet mignon, which have earned rave reviews. However, service inconsistencies have surfaced, with several guests expressing disappointment in wait times and staff knowledge. While some patrons enjoyed attentive service and generous desserts, others lamented the portion sizes and overall experience, especially during special occasions. Despite the highs and lows, Blackfly remains a popular choice, but diners may wish to manage their expectations regarding service.
We had a wonderful meal and exceptional service. While parking was a bit tricky, the manager stepped in to assist us. Overall, we both loved the experience, and our waiter, Daniel, was outstanding.
Eating is good. but the run of the front of the house will leave a bad taste in her mouth. if they use well-run restaurants, they could be inline for a disappointing meal, and this is sad because the kitchen is really good. but they need to bring someone the skill level that is produced in the kitchen in the rest of the restaurant.
We had a very pleasant evening with a fantastic menu. The price point was spot on for the high quality of food. A shout out to Ross a most friendly and knowledgeable server. Will certainly be back.
First the good. The bartender was amazing. I totally forgot her name but she was very knowledgeable and friendly. They have a very nice selection of top shelf bourbon, rum and tequila. Then we went to our table for dinner and it was not good after that. The waiter was horrible. He took forever to come to the table. Was not knowledgable about the menu. I ordered the chicken cordon blue it was so dry. I tried to eat it and could not, I had to ask for more sauce and that did not help. My husband told the server and he ordered me another one. The manager came over and apologized. Of course my husband was finished with his dinner by the time my new chicken came out. Neither the waiter or the manager came to see if the new one was good which it was better but not great. For the prices of the meals I would expect much better food and service. I will not be back and do not recommend this place. It is not worth the walk over the bridge. When we travel we always rely on open table reviews in selecting a restaurant it is important that people are honest with reviews.
