   Origionally seating in the bar area. Very loud. Seated in an open section of the dining room next to a birthday party of 20 people, less loud. The food was okay, filet ordered meduim came out raw. Sent back, returned medium rare. Broccoli medley was very good.

   We took our Granddaughter out for your "kids eat free" school vacation week. Everything was very good. The only issue, for my 5 year old granddaughter was, she wanted mashed potatoes instead of French fries and they were too garlicky for her. We were able to change it out for plain white rice and she was happy with that. They were very acomodating.

   I was disappointed because I thought we had full menu for full dinner. But it was only bar station with a lite menu (appizt, sandwiches only)

   Food was good but our waitress seemed to struggle a bit and we did not get what we ordered. Service was a bit slow. Drinks took a bit to arrive.

   Our server, Courtney was excellent! Food was outstanding. Scrod, chicken piccata, chicken bacon sandwich, & kids pizza were all very good. Molten cake & crème brûlée were so good. I’m so glad we tried them again. We were so disappointed when they closed. Definitely a must try, prices are very good too!

   Always very accommodating here! Food is consistently good and they have great weekly specials (like BOGO1/2!!) Wine prices are super reasonable. The app earns you points. You save $ by using debit over credit. AND a birthday and anniversary gift? What's not to love!!

   We love 579's menu and the food is always fresh and tastes delicious. Prices are reasonable too. The main dining room is quiet enough that you can easily have a conversation. I appreciate that.

   Not what it use to be before it shut down. I could have gone to the 99 for the same stuff. It’s unfortunate before the shut down this was our favorite place and we heard it was reopened and were disappointed.
