    Paul Martin's was a beautiful and elegant place to get together for a holiday dinner. The food was delicious, and the service was great! The $10 corkage fee was a great deal!

    The good was absolutely horrible. Sent back and it was still not good. Steaks were over cooked and way too seasoned. So disappointing for how much we spent.

    We were seated immediately and had drinks very quickly. Getting to order food was quite a wait. The food was delicious, especially the butter cake. Lobster roll and bisque were excellent.

    Very disappointed overall. It took almost an hour (55 mins) for us to get our food. The blackened rib eye they raved about was MEH nothing special. Undercooked as I asked for medium well and there was quite a large amount of blood on it. By then I was already irritated so I ate what I could because I didn’t want us to wait another hour. We arrived at 7:15 and left the restaurant at 9:30. Awful! Manager was no help. Brunette with long hair. She tried justifying rather than taking accountability for the delay. Will NEVER EAT HERE AGAIN! First impressions are everything!

    Great place to celebrate any occasion. My friend was celebrating her 70th birthday and Paul Martin’s did not disappoint. I love the ambiance and the food. The Express lunch menu offers a variety of good options. The fried shrimp is one of my favorites. The service was great. Our meal ended with a complimentary dessert to mark the occasion. Thank you! We will be back.

    We were there for Thanksgiving and all the sides we wanted were out. Pretty ridiculous. Green beans, yams, and some other items on the menu were out. It was a disappointment.
