5 /5 Nia Daye: After a stop at a different place, we decided to check out Loch Bar given its good ratings and menu options. This was our first time going here ever, but it definitely wont be the last. The great level and quality of service began before we sat down in the restaurant - there was staff member stationed at the door to greet us and open the door as we came in and out of the restaurant. The staff at the hostess stand erre friendly, welcoming us and wishing us a great night when we left after dinner. Since it was a Thursday and football was on, we sat at the bar. The decor was modern chic, with gold accents, bright mood lighting - definitely more of an elevated and sophisticated vibe and atmosphere.
The food and drinks were excellent. We split an order of the Crispy Calamari and Shrimp, my boyfriend ordered the Chicken and Sausage Gumbo while I went with the Cream of Crab soup. When ordering our soups, we expected the bowl to be smaller but were pleasantly surprised by the portion given. For me, I would probably get the cup next time instead of the bowl lol. All of our food was great! Tasty, served fresh and hot, great portions sizes. Our drinks were really good too! Our server/bartender did her thing making my lemon drop martini - I appreciate her asking if I had a preferred tequila.
Our first time here was very good and we definitely plan to come back as we love seafood. Look forward to trying a number of other items in the menu!
