the majestic

pro/con on the three course. on the pro side, considering the deserts run close to $10, it's a good value on the non-upcharge entrees. downside was that four deserts were one or two too many, and as a couple involved ice cream in some fashion, didn't lend themselves to boxing for later.
ceasar (tableside prep), meatloaf, liver & onions, seafood stew, and whole fish entrees were excellent, with service to match.niceselection of craft beer from local producers.
not as loud inside as i expected, given the close proximity of tables.

overall, our meal at the majestic was a charming delight, filled with anicevariety of delicious, homestyle food that really hit our collective spot. with all due respect to my mom, if chef overmiller ever offers lessons, i may be signing her up. :)

great food bad waiter. this was our second time eating at this establishment. we had a wonderful meal on the first visit--and good service, as well. on our second visit we had, by far, bar none, the 100% absolute worst service i have ever had at any restaurant--ever!!! our waiter was rude pass the point of misunderstanding or poor training. we had trouble getting him to take our drink order--25 minutes passed before the first drink order was even taken--then the waiter only took drink orders for half the table. we were never offered another beverage after that---very strange. the entrees were brought to the table at different times for several members of our party. the waiter rolled his eyes and argued with our requests at every turn. it was a struggle with this gent all night--not very relaxing or fun to say the least. the only time there was any sense of urgency was after the desserts came--then we felt rushed. so much can be forgiven if the server has a pleasant attitude. it is too bad as the food was good--very good on both visits. many of the supporting staff were quiteniceand helpful. bottom line--never again--not at these prices--not with so many other choices in town. many places have good food and consistently good service. why put yourself through this? get it together majestic!

very disappointing lunch on new years eve. my husband and i wanted to celebrate new years with aniceupscale lunch in old town. the menu was sparse, and we ordered what we thought would be much better than the norm steak-and-cheese with caramelized onion sandwich and a chicken salad sandwich. the steak and cheese was greasy and hard to eat and beef a little tough. an average sandwich place could do as well -- and cost $5 instead of $17. my husband's chicken salad wasn't particularly special. the only side we both got was potato chips (maybe of the homemade variety).
we've had some good experiences at majestic in the past, but after today don't plan to return for a $45 lunch with two sub-par uncreative sandwiches. ridiculous.

great food and great service. we are new in town so are trying a lot of things out. we split a couple dishes and found them to be very nice. started with french onion soup, which was lighter than what one would expect, they use mushroom stock instead of beef stock and serve it with crostini layered with cheese instead of the normal blob of gruyere you would expect. followed up with a manicotti which had anicesauce sprinkled with golden raisins. we split it and i can't imagine eating the whole thing. overallnicedishes and server was very knowledgeable and attentive. thumbs up!!
