Best KPortal Reviews

Restaurant was busy. Used call ahead, and had a short wait to be seated.
Waitress was very pleasant, was in no rush for us to order drinks and brought us water right away.
The drinks were very good.
Ordered a small portion of the chicken tenders. This was a good move. 6 of them were plenty for the two of us. Tasty, spicy and delicious.
My wife had the baked haddock, excellent.
I had the bacon BBQ burger which was delicious. One doing, no where near enough BBQ sauce and it may have been omitted accidentally. Large portions of fresh lettuce and tomato and a healthy onion slice more than made up for it.
Onion rings were delicious.
On to dessert!
Fried dough bites with chocolate syrup and caramel for dipping. Hot, puffy, just the right amount of powdered sugar.
Definitely a return visit is in order.
Have been here a few times and never disappointed. Their baked haddock is so good with butter and bread crumbs; flaky and delicious. Also have enjoyed pull pork mac n cheese. Very generous portions. Peak hours for lunch/dinner can cause a wait. Sides are good and nice selection of seasonal drinks.
Definitely recommend The Establishment! Ryan provided great service friendly and professional. Several menu options for everyone. We ordered Haddock, Steak and Cheese, Bacon Burger and a kids meal pasta they even offered a fruit roll up with the kids meal! We spent around $80. Comfortable fun atmosphere. Can’t wait to go again.
Food was decent….. nachos were decent, steak tips were great, Turkey Tips were considerably dry…. Sweet potato fries were kind of well done.
Regular Fries were little soggy and warm. Service was a little slow considering they were busy. Overall it’s a decent place, however keep in mind it’s a little pricey.
Love the old building feel. Staff was great. No wait. Great drink variety. Outside dining.
Been a while since we were here and it had changed hands a couple of times. Great space. This time they are emphasizing sports bar. Was afraid the food would suffer but it has not. We needed a function room and lunch. Everyone was very helpful. Food was served hot and was delicious. Everyone loved the fish option. Nice selection of cookies and coffee. Prepared vegan option for the party
The Establishment is OK.
The food isn't bad - but its too expensive for the portion or quality. ($20+ for chicken wings / tenders, for example)
The steak tips were decent but not worth the price. I would say that about most things on the menu.
The Establishment is like a classier version of Smokey Bones but with worse food.
If you wanna come here and drink, fine. But its not as tasty as it looks.
Came for my sister's graduation celebration dinner as a party of eight on a Saturday evening. Our reservation was originally for 7pm but we called ahead and they were able to accommodate us for 6:30pm, since we were running ahead of schedule.
While it was busy, our waitress was always so friendly and apologetic about how slow the service was, despite it not being a problem for us. She checked in on us many times and made us feel welcomed.
The food itself comes in large portions, and there's a wide variety of options on the menu. I have simple tastes and ordered the Chicken Tenders basket, which came with fries, cole slaw, and a sauce of my choice. The food is good, and what you might expect from this kind of restaurant.
The atmosphere is lively, and I'd imagine a great place to celebrate with larger groups. Thankfully we were seated at a table against a wall so it didn't feel too loud. One thing to note is that it'd be nice for the TVs to display captions. Otherwise we had a great time celebrating together!
