    The food is all top notch and made from scratch. We had lobster ravioli, stuffed shrimp and of course prime rib. Best prime rib I've ever had. Homemade dressings and desserts are great also. Very attentive service from everyone.

    As always, excellent service. Steaks were cooked exactly how we like them. All the food is always fresh and flavorful. Quiet atmosphere. Cocktail drinks were great. We were celebrating my husbands birthday and got a complimentary ice cream with a birthday candle. We were the last customers and nobody rushed us (sorry we stayed so late!).

    Dinner, cocktails and service second to none. Our dinner guests from Minneapolis were most impressed. Thank you Ward’s for a true, dining experience.

    Prime rib lived up to expectations. Seafood Sampler was great. Salmon was unique and delicious. Mashed potatoes were amazing as well as the au gratin potatoes. Cajun lobster Mac sounded better than it tasted, just a bit bland. Overall experience was great and would recommend!

    Food and service was horrible. We didn’t even eat our meals after a couple of bites. Salad was mushy, soaked in dressing, gross, twice baked potato wasn ‘t fully cooked. Fillet was so tough you had to saw through it with a steak knife. Server was slow, complained to us about her dissatisfaction of her job. I would take a steak from Applebees over this food. The scallops, as an appetizer were very good. The owner was nice and offered us new meals, however we had a show to get to and service was so slow we were running late: I have never written a review this negative. I love locally owned restaurants and businesses and will always support them. Hopefully this place will change for the better.

    Was craving prime rib and had never been to Ward's so a very easy to make reservation was made. The food was good, the service was appropriately paced, and the drinks were well made. Nice work!
