We had a very lovely evening at Skye Restaurant. Our waiter , I believe Armando was very professional. The special that night was Cod, cooked perfectly and my husband had the scallops. Prices are reasonable especially when you taste the delicious food they serve. Thank-you.

Visited for lunch and ordered two half perch meals with fries and coleslaw
Food arrived quickly and was crispy and piping hot. Attacked the four pieces of perch first then worked in the county fair style fries which were perfect with some vinegar on them. Coleslaw was excellent as well. Had our fill of excellent perch as well as the sides and still had some left for the next day. Great attentive service too

Stopped with my wife for a late dinner after shopping on 12/11/17 to see if it was still as good as in the past since we haven't been here in about 4 years. Service was fast and dinners very good. My wife had the Chicken Madison, their creation, ($14.00) and I had the Wedding Soup & Caesar Salad ($7.29). Overall a very good dinner and even had some to take home. We won't wait as long to make a return visit.

Best breakfast in town, is our family's opinion. Their Ciabatta toast is so delicious. They offer a variety of omelets. Many are not typical of breakfast restaurants because the pairing of ingredients is unique. The breakfast sausage links are big and meaty. Not the typical kind found at most restaurants. But the best part of breakfast is their coffee!!! Don't forget to get a to go cup ( usually the servers offer you one).

A new twist to grilled cheese sandwiches which are served with a variety of items. Had the Cleveland cheese steak which was pulled braised brisket with grilled mushrooms and peppers, and of course cheese. All sandwiches are served with home cur fries. All was good.

I was craving a Greek salad while in town for work and decided to give this place a try. I had the Greek salad with chicken and a side of potato salad. The Greek salad was a good size at $9 with chicken. As someone who eats a lot of Greek salads , I would have liked to have kalamata olives instead of regular black olives and a side of pita. The chicken breast was cooked fresh on the grill at the time of ordering. The potato salad was awesome. The customer service was good and food ready fast. The flavor of the food was good and the restaurant clean. Overall this was an inexpensive meal ($14) that is made fresh to order that's tastes good. I'd come back and explore the menu.

We lived here for years and never tried it. We were so impressed on our first visit. The food was wonderful, and had large portions. They are Gluten Free friendly and have many GF choices on their menu. Additionally, they have a live performer on the weekends, I believe, and was great to listen too!

We go to Molinari's a few times a year and enjoy sitting and eating at the bar. The last time we went, we were not thrilled with the bartender. This time proved no different.
We sat down at the bar that was fairly empty. The bartender finally came over and took our order. Then he proceed to make other drinks and handle other task. Considering we had a fairly simple bottle of wine it should have been easy. After we got our wine, he gave us menu's. After a few minutes he came back for our order and we inquired about "specials". He then told us how busy he's been and would get a list from the kitchen "when he had time". We watched as he proceeded to cut lemons, fill olives, fill ice... back and forth to the kitchen a few times. Finally he brought out the list of "specials". He read the first appetizer, then stopped due to a drink ticking printing off. He then advised that he would have to read these peace meal when he had time. At that point we asked for a table to get better service.
Odessa, our server at the table was outstanding a salvaged this meal. Food came out to order and was nicely done. The bartender needs to go!
Molinari's bills itself has a nicer restaurant. It would make sense to remove the stacked beer that is stored in the bar dining area. Also, the bartender may want remember that a tip is normally based on the amount of the bill. Since we were attempting to order a meal with our wine this would have increased his tip. He may be big with the regulars but would not cut it at most other restuarants.

You need to eat here— appetizers are delicious: queso fundido, guacamole, and chips and salsa. So good. Vegetarian Gordita very good. Arroz con pollo very good. Burritos and soft tacos very tasty. Margaritas are HUGE, piña colada good flavor. Our waiter was efficient and friendly, always checking to see if our drinks were filled. Definite do-over soon. Prices good value. We all left feeling happy but very full!!
