Best Casual Restaurants in Waverly

First time trying “Ballantyne’s first steakhouse”. Overall it was a positive experience, server seemed sort of new but I think he was just busy, he was very nice though throughout the night. We ordered an appetizer which was really good, although the amount of food for the price seemed a little off, but I guess that’s just personal opinion. Next we ordered the she crab soup which was actually amazing and had a lot of flavor, the presentation was cool as well. For the steaks, we both ordered the same exact thing, same temperature, same cut… but did not receive the same thing. Mine was noticeably undercooked, which was actually fine because I don’t mind eating rare-medium rare meat so I didn’t say anything. Also, not something to complain about but my steak was definitely bigger than what was advertised on the menu. Again not complaining but hopefully the restaurant figures out how to consistently cut the steaks or else they’re going to lose money. We ordered a few cocktails and those were great. Seems like they have a few things to still figure out but we’ll definitely be back.

Service and meal was excellent. Prices were high though for what you receive cocktail prices were high as well.

The food and service were outstanding! Truly! It was a little hard to hear my friend talking across the table, though. There was a great energy in the restaurant, but I probably prefer a little bit quieter space for conversation. I’d still return for the food and service, but it wouldn’t be a spot I’d pick for serious catching up given the acoustics are a bit on the loud side.

The truffle bread, calamari and pizza were absolutely delicious!

Overall great experience ! I forgot to get our waitresses name but 10/10 will definitely recommend to my friends and will definitely be back .
