    What a disappointing experience we had today at Rails. My husband and I were there to celebrate our 32nd wedding anniversary, and thought lunch at Rails would be the perfect way to celebrate. We were seated outside. Our waiter brought us water and said he’d be right back with our menus and place settings, we never saw him again. We had our water topped off,we asked if our waiter would return, no response. Various other staff passed by and ignores us. All of the surrounding tables were being served, people who were seated after we arrived were being served. We were still being ignored! Finally, after 30 minutes of waiting patiently, we left. Horrible service!!

    This place is always great. The menu offers tons of variety and the ambience is one of the best in town. It is typically a bit noisy because of the nature of the building but this time we went to dinner later and it was really quiet. My husband had the NY Strip with Shrimp, which was excellent, and I had the Beef Marsala with Orzo. Unfortunately, mine was a bit salty but never the less, we still had a wonderful evening. I always give this place 5 stars and this is the first time ever that I’ve had something negative to say. Rails is actually very rare to disappoint.

    Friendly, attentive staff and excellent food! Luscious desserts from their bakery next door, especially the pina colada cake! Highly recommend.

    Second visit to this restaurant. Everything was excellent. Outdoor space is dog friendly - they even have a menu for the dogs.

    I guess we expected that they’d have something for birthdays as it was on our reservation but it we weren’t greeted with a happy birthday nor was it ever mentioned. Other than that food was excellent as was the service!
