Peohe's

We came for a birthday brunch and even though our party of nine waited about 15–20 minutes to be seated, everyone was so kind and the views were so pretty that none of us minded. Drinks took a bit to arrive, but once everything settled, the food absolutely stole the show. The guys ordered burgers stacked so high on pretzel buns they needed a game plan, and my seafood Cobb was loaded with big juicy shrimp, creamy avocado, and sweet lump crab , I want another one just thinking about it. And please don’t miss the calamari starter: lightly tempura-fried with thin veggie strips… honestly, I’d come back just for that.

The ambience here is gorgeous. Romantic and classic inside , and waterfront views on the patio and inside patio. However, it feels like some of the details are slipping. My dishware was dirty, though the host handled it quickly no big deal. Front staff was a little eh.. but my server was 10/10. The food itself is just okay. Nothing bad, but nothing memorable or exciting either. It has more of a traditional, old-school feel, the kind of place I could see my grandparents loving and coming back to often. For me, the flavors didn’t quite match the price point, so the value felt a bit off. Overall, it’s a beautiful restaurant, but the food and execution didn’t fully meet the expectations set by the ambience or the cost.

We stopped by Peohe’s because we were considering hosting my mom’s 70th birthday there, but after our experience, that’s definitely not happening. While we were seated right away, everything else went downhill. The beer selection was surprisingly bad, and the bottled IPA I ordered tasted skunked. The prime rib sliders were soggy and clearly not fresh...honestly pretty disgusting. Service was also painfully slow, even though it wasn’t busy. For a place that charges premium prices for a luxury event space, the quality just wasn’t there. It’s a very expensive space for very poor food and service. Definitely not somewhere we’d trust to host an important milestone celebration. Would not recommend.
