    Even though we have been many times to the Polaris Grill, every time was excellent food and service. However, this I had halibut which was truly delicious and outstanding.. Well done Polaris Grill.

    Atmosphere is good and so was service. Quality of food seems to have changed over the years. I used to think they had the best crab cakes in town. Not so much anymore. Rather tasteless and mushy last time I went. They used to be my go to in salads, sliders and on their own. This past visit left me thinking I wouldn’t be sad if I didn’t go again. Please, Paris grill, look into your crab cake suppliers!

    Tony was a real professional. His was kind and took care of what we needed. The meals were perfect and correct. The 55 dressing is a bit hit with our family. Thank you for the lovely experience.
