The Mendon House

My favorite local spot! Thursday nights are Oyster Night, which is a must-try. The bar has a great selection and the bartenders really know how to craft delicious cocktails. The chef is fantastic and truly knows how to cook a steak to perfection.

We have not been here in over 8 years. The food used to be much much better, but it was fine. If you dine here, the best option is actually the bar area, which is warm, inviting and cozy. The drink menu is very nice and I would say it is a wonderful place to catch a drink with a friend for conversation. Our experience in the dining room however was not good due to an obscene customer. Not only did she yell her conversation (in an otherwise quiet dining room) but used profane language ...and those in her party proceded to out yell her (creating their own little Lombard effect). They were all the way across the dining room from us and we herd every single word she spoke. And all this before she even started drinking lol. It is unfortunate that many people have no idea of how to behave in public, but when a customer is behaving this way the restaurant should try to address it. The only thing they have to risk is loosing a customer that is difficult...but by not addressing they loose everyone else in the room.

I have always enjoyed Mendon 64, I will admit I hadn't had dinner there in several months, but I must say I was disappointed during my recent Saturday evening visit. The food was fine ONCE it arrived, there was 6 of us, the first meal arrived approximately 12 to 15 minutes before last meal arrived. The drinks are adequate, but we had to remind our server twice about 2 missing drinks. The server was pleasant, but obviously overwhelmed for some reason. The ambiance is pleasing as usual. I feel bad to be writing a poor review, maybe they were just having a bad night. Be assured I will return, hopefully they will be having a better night. Love you Hilary!

Fantastic experience. Every piece of both of our meals felt like it was lovingly prepared with top quality ingredients. Even the French fries which can be a very generic commodity type item were exceptional. I had red curry coconut rice with chicken and it was astoundingly flavorful and enjoyable. Even the pre-dinner bread was amazing. The service matched the food. A true gem.

Food was great! Every time we return to Mendon 64 we are greeted by a waitress that clearly hates being a server. After 4 visits the food can't make up for the quality of service. Won't return.
