Midway Restaurant

1 star because the staff were great and a additional star for the calamari being delicious. The silverware and area were dirty and I understand the test if time but I never complain about things needing to be cleaner like I have here. The drinks were limited not only by the menu but by the drinks available behind the bar. I wouldn't order any drinks off the menu and I usually grab a pair or more or expresso martini's and taste from all over I actually opted against it here. They just didn't taste great. The calamari was delicious and fresh and so lightly crusted and still held together I would go as far to say it was cooked perfectly. The old fashioned seafood chowder was more of a watered down soup the fried shrimp plate was cooked good and for the clam strips where so so. I won't come back here just came to give the place my review and opinion while I was in the area.

On 4/3 I ordered take out and asked for 3 steak tip Caesar salads and a midway sampler at 4:30 pm I picked up my order at 5:00 and had a glass of wine at the bar while waiting at 5:00 pm. I brought my order home for my family at about 5:30 pm. I noticed at 6:00 pm after I walked my dog and got settled that my order was incorrect. I thought I was missing the midway sampler so I called and they put me on hold come to find out I was missing the steak tip salad which I realized after they picked up after having me on hold. He completely dismissed me the owner who I called back an would only give me a first name “Fred” and said he could not give me the last name. He told me he put the bag together and it was correct and I’m going back and fourth on my order when I was just reading what was on the packaging. And I was at the bar a cook had brought the order out to me personally. He dismissed me again and hung up on me. Completely unprofessional I worked as a waitress for 8 years and was taught the customer “was always right” and to show hospitality and now I’m a nurse of 8 years I don’t need anything free which is what I told him. We give them a lot of business as well as all my family and friends. And this is truly disappointing and disrespectful to be hung up on and tell me quote on quote “that I am lying”. I honestly wouldn’t recommend this restaurant that has been around a long time to anyone. After working two full time jobs I don’t need this I am truly disappointed and as I told the manager “Fred” I am not one to complain.

We really enjoy the Midway. The food is fresh off the grill and yummy. I highly recommend anything with the fries. The eggroll appetizer is not too spicy and oh so tasty. The garlic bread was fresh. Outstanding food and friendly service. Also, the best way to fill some of the seats left empty due to social distancing!

Terrific neighborhood spot. Food is delicious and very reasonably priced. LOVE the meatloaf. Easy 2-3 meals from it. Seafood is good, burgers are good, sandwiches are.good - can't really go wrong here at all. The staff is always great too. Love coming here for trivia. One of the comfiest bars to sit at with cushioned stools, back support, and angled edge of the bar for you to lean your arms against.
