Our food was delicious and our server, Olivia, was outstanding. It was a Sunday evening and not very busy so the noise level was very low and the restaurant not very loud, allowing us to have a very leisurely meal.

The service was fine and the food was great. However, we were over charged for the meal and we were told it would take at least three business days for it to be addressed. This to me was unacceptable. I’m not sure what they’re thinking at this restaurant. Not good.

Our server was attentive and the food was wonderful. We had the chicken sandwich, pasta, and smash burger. The chicken sandwich was the standout, which we weren’t expecting. Can we talk about the beef fat fries? YUM! Crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle. Perfect.

Overall a good experience. Shirt rib was fantastic and substituted Mac n cheese for the potato option. Good choice, since the mashed potatoes were too sweet and wouldn’t be a good combo. The same potato’s came with their signature meatloaf dish. Disappointed. Meat was dry and the sauce too sweet. Would not order again. Tuscan pasta was good along with the French onion soup.

The service was excellent, and it’s a very nice venue, but the food didn’t meet our expectations. The brisket sliders sounded inspired, but the food quality just wasn’t there. Similarly, the chopped salad was tired and uninspired.

Noise levels were a problem but that’s the norm now.

We had the most amazing server and food. The bone in Rib eye was perfect. The Sea bass was perfect. Everything was amazing, truly. But I have to rave about our server. I cannot remember her name, but she had a little purple in her hair. She was the sweetest , most attentive server I have had in years and you can tell she loves her job and loves people. Watermill... you have a rare gem in this woman. Please keep her happy. We will definitely return!

Highly recommended! The food and drinks were fantastic, as was the service. We were celebrating my son’s college graduation and they made him and all of us feel special and celebrated. I can’t say enough good things about Watermill Kitchen. It’s at the Hyatt Hotel. We were not guests and it felt like we were visiting a high end restaurant. The sea bass was mouth-watering good!! Go there. You won’t be disappointed!
