   When telling people we know that we were going to try Kiki Rae’s, we found very mixed reviews. So here’s ours: 1) food is very average (clam chowder was lukewarm and bland, ahi tuna was not seasoned well, harvest salad was 98% greens and 2% ‘good stuff’, etc.) 2) bill with 1 bottle of wine (3 people) was > $200; fine if the food was even above average 3) we went on the Friday between Christmas and New Years: Despite being 55 degrees, they decided to keep the bar windows open (even though no one was sitting in the 2 or 3 chairs outside), the front door was kept wide open, and the door to the patio was open (this one I understand). Everyone was eating with their coats and jackets on. Why would they want to keep the inside of the restaurant so cool- please eat and leave? My $.02 - go for happy hour 3-5 and get a few drinks, then go to dinner somewhere else.

   First time at Kiki's and everything was excellent! Aidan was our server and he was always there to see what we needed. Very attentive. Everything we ordered was delicious and came out at just the right time. We didn't feel rushed and were relaxed on the beautiful patio. Make sure to order the cauliflower... AMAZING! Also the crab dip was excellent... They did not skimp on the crab. And the coconut shrimp were large and delicious. 10/10 on service, food and ambience!

   Great place to visit with friends. Hayden was our amazing server and the outdoor vibe was incredible. The halibut was delicious and my husband had the pork chop which he really enjoyed. This was our second visit and is fast becoming our favorite restaurant in the area.

   We had a delightful waiter and we enjoyed his conversation and personality. My friend and I had the branzino special and it was delicious. My husband had the prime rib and he said it was very flavorful but not as tender as you expect from prime rib. Side dish veggies were excellent for both. When the server set the prime rib on the table he spilled the au jus all over the side of the plate and onto the tablecloth. He didn’t make any attempt to clean up the spill or comment on it. The only other issue is the noise level inside—especially since we had a very noisy table of 6 right next to us. We especially like the patio but it was a little cool for us last night. Will definitely go again.

   Always a good time at Kiki Rae's!! Love the menu and the service is always terrific! Our only criticism on this visit, was on one of the desserts we ordered.. Creme Brulee came to the table as a chocolate mouse with whipped cream (??) hmmm.. Creme Brulee is a french dessert made with a custard base and caramelized sugar on top. Anyway, we gave feedback to the waiter for the kitchen staff and it was removed from our bill. Thanks for a great time! The patio is charming and warm with holiday decor! WE will always be back.

   Came in at 6:30 pm. We sat on the patio and had a heater so it was comfortable. Great ambience and lighted nicely for Christmas. Excellent service by multiple waiters. The food was very good although the halibut was disappointing as it was tough. Maybe a bad piece? All the drinks and chowder and appetizers were very good. Would come again.

    Great spot for Brunch. Selections are something for everyone. Patio and open air vibes are awesome. $25 bottle service with three choices of juice…great value !
