   First time here. Outstanding experience. Had the burrata appetizer and halibut entree- both were fantastic.

   The ambiance and service were very good. The food was marginal. We had the ribeye which was very fatty and the filet which was ok. Both very over salted The most disappointing is that there is no wine list!! A few bottles that the server could tell us about ‘verbally’ with no details. Very dissapointed and would likely not return especially given the other great restaurants in the area

   Relic was beautifully decorated for the holidays, warm and welcoming. Drinks and food were excellent as always. Always have a great experience when we dine there! The bar is fun too!

   Very disappointed in the food, service and lack of management visibility. It started when we tried to order a bottle of wine but there was no bottle list available and our server, who appeared to be new and untrained, went to the bar to find out what wines were available and came came back with 3 or 4 red wine selections but did not know the vintage or any of the prices. We ended up ordering a glass of wine and cocktail which were fine. Had a crab bisque appetizer which was good. We ordered a center cut filet, a fish special and two sides. The fish special was fine. The filet was cooked medium as ordered but was dry and had a texture of a chuck roast. The taste and texture was unlike any other filet I had and was not enjoyable. I ended up sending it back. The server was very apologetic and spoke to the chef who offered to make a new steak. At that point it was late in our meal and I declined. She said she would have the manager come over but we never spoke to a manager. Also, the truffle fries were very disappointing. The fries served are not hand cut potatoes, and essentially the same type of fries served at Burger King (coated fries) with very little truffle and seasoning. With so many choices in the Newtown area I doubt that we will be back.

   GREAT service, amazing drinks and thoroughly yummy dinner. The black decor, linens and flatware were a bit overwhelming.

   Very charming restaurant, we loved the ambience and service was friendly and attentive. Food was a bit of hit or miss, some dishes were good others barely warm and oily. Wine list is limited. Overall did not quite live up to the expectations.

    We LOVE Relic. It is without a doubt one of the best restaurants in Bucks County. It’s our dependable go-to spot. We love the ambiance, the coziness, the top-notch food & wine, and the service. And we love Relic’s owner, Greg Conlan. Greg is such a sweetheart; he’s a real class act who makes you feel so welcome and special. He is a dedicated and talented restaurateur who clearly loves what he does.
