A local favorite, the food was excellent and the service was awesome. My caesar salad with shrimp was delicious. Can't go wrong with the nachos and the calamari is some of the best around. Absolutely delicious!!

Very interesting historic building, extremely neat and clean. The food was great, amazing service and reasonable prices. I'll definitely go back next time I'm in the area.

This restaurant gave me one of my most incredible birthday dinners and it makes an impressive list that includes exceptional eateries in different states and countries. Really phenomenal food. I regret as a GM local guide their grill was one of the first reviews I ever posted, (see below under the hashtag) and so like many new reviewers I wrote very few words and little detail. I couldn't even tell you what we ate as I did not take any photos - either because I didn't have my phone/camera with me, or I hadn't thought to do this yet, again, just beginning this undertaking. My partner and I dine out a lot and it may be we'd just eaten in so many places I was picky. Or, maybe the lunch was just okay. Regardless, my opinion today of their dinner service, is it's a place worth driving a distance to or if you're within the area worth frequenting. Though retro, I still love the idea of disposable table coverings that allow patrons to draw on them with provided crayons. The first time I experienced this was at Café Un Deux Trois in Manhattan in the eighties, so this concept goes back awhile. Love that Wood Creek Bar & Grill still does this, whether it's for kids or adults. Candles lit should always be a part of your experience at any fine dining establishment. Special menu items should be special or favorites. Back to the dinner. Having a spontaneous day, we did not have reservations and could have been dressed less casually, but we were in formal casual wear, if you will, meaning this is not a place you need to wear a suit or cocktail dress, but perhaps reconsider tube socks and tank tops. They found us a table on the small upper level to the right of the door where we'd had lunch for my original review. Let's get to the food. The scallop appetizer was unforgettable. It may be the best I've ever had, and for those that read my reviews you know I'm working on a top ten list for this dish. It's hard to do because often the scallop starter is a special, as this was, so for that reason it can't make the list as it's not always available. However, if and when you're at Wood Creek Bar & Grill, and this is on the menu, by all means order them as either an appetizer (two) or dinner (four). Or, get two of each. We realized after each having one, we could have easily had a second. The arancini (fried rice ball) stuffed with mozzarella and prosciutto was also perfect. Our entrées were equally spectacular. One is still a regular menu item, fortunately - the pan seared duck breast. Unbelievable. Moist, depth in flavor with a raspberry demi glace, accompanying mashed potatoes and squash. A special menu fresh haddock with wild rice and the same squash was above par. Light and gratifying. The accompanying salads with dinner were also noteworthy. The bartender did a fine job with our cocktails. # Good service but pricey. Food was okay.

Excellent Reuben. The marbled rye was the best part. Nice stack of quality corned beef. The service was very good and the entire staff were into their gig. Cool bar ambiance and a nice local crowd. Great beer selection also.
