Good Eats has been one of our favorite restaurants since they opened 2 years ago. The dining room is tastefully decorated and relaxing. The owners are always make you feel welcome. And the food is always delicious. Our waitress was friendly and efficient. This is the best place for a special occasion or a casual lunch during the week.

One of the best Caesar salads ever. We all had something a little different- mussels (the broth, was so good. Lots of lemon grass), the trumpet mushroom schnitzel - very good and creative and the curry chicken pot pie, which was yummy- but more like a deconstructed pot pie. The place has a great vibe and staff was lovely. The menu had something for everyone and the cocktails were festive.

Had a lovely dinner with my mother and cousins. They treat Mom like a queen. The food was excellent across the board. Brian and Edward always make us feel special.

We were greeted warmly when we entered and seated immediately. Our waitress was very attentive and informative. My husband and I enjoyed both our appetizers and entrees. This restaurant has become our favorite place to dine in our area.

Once again Good Eats doesn’t disappoint!! We were there for our anniversary. The new menu had a variety of delicious choices. I had caramelized onion soup and the lobster salad, each bite was fresh and delicious. The service was amazing professional and friendly. You have to end your meal with the most amazing toffee sticky pudding and my husband had a fresh berry tart. That was the best thing he ever ate..

This is my second time at Good Eats… the first time a few weeks ago was excellent all around, but this time it only rates a “good”. The ambiance and service were still excellent but the disappointment was my dinner. I ordered the burger, thinking that it would be delicious. The flavors were good but unfortunately the meat was well done when I specifically asked for medium rare to rare. A chewy, hard, well done hamburger is not enjoyable. Hard to believe they blew it on this since the restaurant wasn’t overly busy so the kitchen not under pressure. I didn’t send it back so as not to make a fuss and hold up dinner for my companion but I’ll think twice about going back. $50 for a glass of wine and a lousy burger is a little hard to take.

Unique twist in popular menu items plus some you don’t see elsewhere. Food was excellent! The street fries appetizer was delish! Excellent mussel appetizer. The chicken sandwich was to die for, especially with the bacon add on. Sticky toffee pudding of your dreams! Menu changes frequently. Service also excellent. It’s not a rush place - if you’re in a hurry, may need to feel your server. Timing was perfect for us. Definitely recommend!

Food was delicious, service was attentive and cheerful, and the view of the river was delightful. We thoroughly enjoyed a little reunion with good friends at Good Eats and will return when we are back in the area.
