Review of The Inn at Saint Peters

Extremely disappointed. Although numerous employees walked by us, it still took a good 10 minutes or more to get our server over for a drink order. We finally ordered drinks and an appetizer to start. About 15 minutes later, our hummus appetizer arrived. It was watery but not bad, just not enough pita for the amount of hummus.

We asked for more pita and another drink. The drink took 10 more minutes to get and it was completely wrong. Our server corrected it and then a few minutes later, our extra bread finally arrived.

Then the Caprese Salad came out another 10 minutes later. The tomatoes were hard and pale in color. We ate some anyway because we were very hungry after hiking for a few hours. We asked for extra balsamic for the salad and of course never got it.
15 minutes after that, 2 out of 3 entrees arrived. The Ribs were lukewarm and reheated from days ago. It tasted like old leftovers. The Chicken Tacos were cold, dry, and like cardboard. I took one bite and lost my appetite. They were gross. Even the side cabbage topping was turning color because it was old. The third entree, Scallops, finally came out 7 minutes later and missing 1 side. The scallops were rubbery and way over cooked as well.

I went to the bar to ask for a manager. The bartender said she was the manager. I told her about how disappointing the food and the service was. Her response was they don t ever really get any complaints and that our server did inform us about the Scallops taking longer than normal. Since the food came out and some was eaten, that they d take off just 1 of the entrees (which was the cheapest one).

This was a birthday dinner which became a waste of time and money. The food was lousy and so was the service. The only reason our table ate some of it was because we hadn t eaten all day. Dining out is a treat and a reward. This was a really bad experience that literally left a bad taste in our mouths. We won t be back.
