We were seated in the kids’ section; so, it was quite noisy. It was hard to carry on a conversation. The kids were just being kids, most of them were good and just 5 of them were running around. The families started leaving around 6:30 and were mostly gone by 7; so, it was easier to talk. The food was good and staff was friendly.

Our family goes to Steel and Rye for celebrations big and small. The staff could not have been more welcoming or attentive to our party of 9, including two toddlers. The foot, as usual, was great. We are so lucky to have Steel and Rye so close to home. Thank you for making Easter, 2025 special for us!

Ordered a hamburger but it was undercooked. It took forever to get our drinks. We asked for more water and the waitress made a comment like I’m getting pulled in too many directions right now. Not what I would expect for a $420 bill
