New to the area, I took my lil' sis to dinner at this place because it looked like a decent place. We sat outside (summery August evening) and had to wait 15 minutes for our waitress to come around and take drink orders (she only had one other table and we watched and the couple from that table sent food back to the kitchen). Feeling a little uneasy, we decided to hang in there and give the place a chance. When the waitress (Laura B) took our order, the place mats she put down in front of us when she brought out our drinks had food on it and my set of silverware was dirty. Not a stellar start to the evening. I decided on soup and salad because it's hard to go wrong with that fare. WRONG. My soup was cold and my lil' sis' steak chili dip with nachos on the side came with only a few nachos. We asked the waitress to heat my soup up and bring us more nachos. Soup came out the same and she never did bring the nachos. My sister then had mac-n-cheese which tasted off (sour) and my garden salad came (which was pretty good), but there were never any refills of our drinks (per our request after we finished our apps), which remained empty. After that, we didn't see our waitress again until after I asked another waitress to bring our check. No wonder why the couple from the other table left in a foul mood. Needless to say, this is not a place I would recommend.

After reading the reviews and checking out the menu I was really looking forward to visiting this restaurant. For starters they took care of us right away, we had a reservation and there was no delay in seating us. They provided some home made ranch potato chips which were really good before we got our meals. Four our entrees we ordered the Inside out Burger, the Duck dip and the Butcherâs cut. My son enjoyed his burger and the duck dip was very tasty and full of flavor. My entree was the Butcherâs cut (more like the Butcherâs scraps)now with a name like that you are probably guessing you will get a decent sized portion but to my astonishment it was about 5 small pieces of beef with a couple of fingerling potatoes. For a minute I thought I got the childrenâs portion it was tiny. For the price of the entree I would have thought it would have been a bigger portion. In addition to this when our meals were served they spilled a drink on the table which forced my gfâs entree to have to be sent back. I thought they would come back and at least offer to get us a drink to make up for the mistake but absolutely nothing. If you find yourself here stay away from the Butcherâs cut unless you want to stop somewhere else to get a bite to eat.

Had lunch of fish and chips. $17.99. Fish was very fresh and well cooked. The french fries were excellent. They cole slaw was disappointing. Would have liked a luncheon menu in additon to the dinner menu. It was not busy when we visited, but the waitress was extremely hurried. Tried to take a plate before we were finished eating... rushed leaving the check and credit slip. We asked if she was anxious for us to leave.

My friend held her rehearsal dinner here the other day (for about 25 people). The only complaint was when we showed up they didn't have the reservation down. My friend had put down a deposit so it was a bit of a shock. This also meant we were crammed into a long table in the dining area that made it hard to talk as a big group. Since dinner was served family style there wasn't enough room for all the plates and glasses, but it made it a bit fun and family like.With that being said, they somehow pulled it all together and the food was very good. They did family style - bread, pasta, salad, chicken and steak. The servers came by constantly to check on things and keep things moving. For this many people they kept dinner to a reasonable amount of time. The owner came by and talked to us and was very friendly. They gave more than enough food and my friend took leftovers home.We're sorry for the mix up on the reservation. With 25 people it will be always be difficult to talk with everyone, no matter the arrangement of tables. We're sorry you felt crammed in, but the seat spacing was the same as standard dining.

What a great experience inside and out!! This place has been here many years and under different names, but it's this name I will remember. Ample parking for the restaurant size right there on Route 34. There is an indoor eating area, three season patio and outdoor deck on the Housy. The place was neat the staff friendly and hospital throughout our visit. The waiter was very knowledgeable and professional as well. The menu was just right for lunchtime. My steak salad was delicious, the cheeseboard was amazing and diverse, the wine on point and the view splendid. The wife enjoyed her salad and chowder and the experience as well. Would return to check out other meal options. Why not, it's only a stones throw away.

The look from the outside can be a bit deceiving. Went there on a football Sunday afternoon but was able to get a table right away. The wings were great and the variety is overwhelming. The service was outstanding!! I would highly recommend the Dew Drop!

New place, its not much to look at from the outside but you will be surprised on the inside. Nice bar with about 20 beers that always rotate on tap. Full bar, great happy hour specials. Awesome appetizers and a great menu. Prices are fantastic. This will be one of my favorite stops.

Service was terrible! Our waitress Emily was indifferent and unfortunately my salmon was overcooked after I asked how it was prepared (medium). I returned it and canceled my order after waiting over 20 minutes. Our waitress barely acknowledged, was unapologetic, and showed no concern that I hadn't eaten and that the rest of our party had finished their meals. Such a disappointment! We asked for a manager and were told there wasn't one there. I had looked forward to coming to this restaurant and was so disappointed. The food that was served to the rest of our party was exceptionally good. I think Prime One Eleven needs management present on Sundays and teach their bartenders and servers to be more attentive to their customers needs.
