Restaurants near Bamans Pond Recreation Area

Celebrated a birthday dinner and received a sweet handwritten birthday card upon arrival. Dinner was outstanding. Shrimp and grits. And the tuna. Both great. Service was outstanding. And wonderful live music was thoroughly enjoyed. I look forward to returning.

Awesome atmosphere and appropriate level of attentiveness. The service paid attention to our needs even though it was a pretty busy night. The food was excellent. The drink options were great. The music matched the setting and was thoughtfully selected. We were very pleased with the complete experience.

This was a wonderful meal from start to finish - we celebrated the holidays with our adult kids, we enjoyed festive beverages, perfectly cooked food, and scrumptious desserts. Service was awesome, we weren’t rushed nor was service slow- it was perfectly timed between courses. The price was a bit higher, but the portions and value were worth every penny.

Always a great experience at "The Forge". Service is excellent, drinks are great, food is terrific, ambiance is wonderful. Highly recommend trying some of the appetizers as well as some of the signature cocktail drinks. The main courses are always wonderful - you don't make a mistake with any of them. It's also the only place where we always have dessert - they are creative and wonderful. Enjoy!

My wife and I had an early dinner that was exceptional. All of the staff and especially our server, Alyson, were pleasant, helpful, efficient and accommodating. We decided to share the Bulgogi appetizer that did not disappoint. Our entrees, Tuscan Salmon and Crab stuffed shrimp were perfectly prepared and plated. The wine and hazelnut praline dessert were wonderful. Around 5PM a musician began playing his guitar and singing. This was our first time at the Grove and as you can tell we enjoyed the whole experience and will definitely return.
