I love...love... LOVE this place! The decor is warm and relaxing the music is nice. The service is great, everyone is friendly and accommodating. Now the Food, is SPECTACULAR. You must try the mini steak sandwiches, they are seasoned perfectly not too much and not to little and the steak is very tender. The Calamari is fried just right with a wonderful marinara sauce that has a little hint of spice, but a subtle sweetness to make you smile. You have got to try the truffle Mac and Cheese, you will never view Mac & Cheese the same, this is a wonderful side dish that compliments the Sea Bass and Salmon perfectly. And you must not forget dessert, I had the Lemon Moraine Pie, which is an inspired recipe from the Chef's Grandmother, the dessert is wonderful. I will definately be back again and again!

I was a little worried about the Reel Club because of all the negative reviews. I was pleasantly surprised, For our entrees I had Broiled Lobster and my wife had the Crab Legs both were absolutely fantastic.I had read they had a problem with their staff, that must have been corrected or not true because our waitress,bus boys,and hostess were very friendly and helpful.Save room for dessert the Taffy Apple Sorbet is out of this world also get the Crunchy Munchy Shrimp for your appetizer it's fabulous.Their prices are comparable with other restaurants in the area.We had two of the most expensive items on the menu,an appetizer,one side dish,two glasses of wine and dessert and our bill was under $115

I was treated to dinner @ the Reel Club yesterday, for Mother's Day. The food was superb! I had the Swordfish Steak and Chopped Salad, my fiancee ordered the Salmon, and my son had the Chicken Milanese. We were all very satisfied w/ the quality of the food, and our waitress, "Olga" was the best! I took half of my entree home, and brought it w/ me today (for lunch). It was still delicious! ~Sandy

Hello. I must start by stating that I did not eat IN the restaurant. I ordered carryout since I'd injured my foot, therefore this is a review based on the FOOD along with the CARRYOUT service. This was my 1st time trying Reel Club.
The carryout service was just OK. When I ordered I informed the order taker that I'd hurt my foot and he assured me that they could bring the food to my car via their Curbside Carryout service and that I should just let the valet know when I arrived. Well, the valet had no clue (and he did not speak English well), so I had to go in. The hostess was short with me even though she saw I was limping, and sent me to the bar. The person at the bar was friendly though.
The pickup experience aside, THE FOOD WAS ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS! My husband and I ordered the Crispy Asian Spare Ribs, Crunchy Munchy Shrimp and Parmesan Crusted Scallops for warm appetizers...EXCELLENT! They were cooked just right, very fresh and very tasty. We had the Bibb Lettuce Salad, and Linguini Fini with clams. All of the food was great and they even included table bread, which was a tasty unexpected treat.
Would I return to Reel Club? ABSOLUTELY. Give them a try...hopefully their attitudes will improve enough to make them an excellent choice for both food and atmosphere.

A group of 6 dined at the Reel Club last night. It was a Friday night and it was extremely packed. Our reservations were at 8:30, and we were seated around 9:00. Prior to seating, we were at the bar which only had one person manning it, and it was very busy. They don't carry your tab over to your table either.
Decor was alittle plain, and the patrons were dressed in jeans to nice outfits for the women. I'm sure because of the location, you get alot of mall patrons.
It took a while for our server to arrive, and the drinks that we ordered took a while as well. They were very busy. The room that we were sitting in was a semi-private room, with only four large tables in there. It seemed to be where they put the larger parties. It was nice!
We ordered right away (it was now 9:45) and when it came, it was amazing. We ordered the parmesean crusted tilipia, crablegs, mahi-mahi (the special). The sides are ala-carte, but were enough for all of us. It was hot, SO FRESH, and yummy. There was so much silence at the table!
When I think Lettuce entertain you, I think quality, but honestly, I also think "Chainy". Our server was amazing, and the exp. was worthwhile.
