   We didn't realize that our annual Christmas season visit to the Old Mill Room would be transferred to the Racquets location due to construction and renovations of the Old Mill Room. A plate was returned and I was charged anyway. The atmosphere is basically a gym. It should not be listed as a restaurant. It was very bad quality cafeteria food. We should have walked out but we were optimistic. We had all traveled hours to meet one another for a holiday brunch and couldn't readjust our schedules. If we had known it would be that bad we would have all gone elsewhere.

   Really hard to find a especially at night. The racquet club is ok but doesn't have the ambiance of the Old Mill Room which is being remodeled. Food was quite good.

   We have only lived here seven weeks and have been to Racquets 4 times. The outside dining with firepits is so nice and cozy and inside is really pleasant as well. The waitstaff is always polite and helpful and friendly!

   Everything about this dinner was bad. The service was slow and somewhat irrational (our cold appetizer took 25 minutes but after it arrived they brought bread for the table). The food ranged from bad to indifferent. My fish was particularly bad - hard and over cooked yet fishy tasting. Desert was a rubbery cake with shavings of frosty ice cream. I’ve read prior reviews and this experience sounds unusual. Perhaps they were overwhelmed because the main restaurant was closed - but isn’t that something management could have planned for?

   The food was excellent from the dinner menu. Atmosphere/ambiance was more in line with a fast food/grill type business than a restaurant. Server was excellent and helpful.

   My first visit to Boars Head in 30 years. Was surprised to find such an indifferent place. Moribund staff. Boring food. Surprising.

   Although the service and ambiance were just good, the food was excellent. The waitstaff was attentive but not hovering, so it was a comfortable experience. We thought the food was so good, we ate there both nights of our visit, once dine in and a second night we did take out. Both meals (salads, sandwiches, and burgers) were excellent.

    This restaurant is located in the sports club at Boars Head Resort..please don't let that deter you from enjoying a "special" dinner here. We celebrated our daughters graduation here. The food was wonderful. Accommodating to food intolerances...and the BEST service ever. Ovi went above and beyond to make sure that we were happy. We eat out quite a bit and the quality of the food, and fun drinks, was 5 star!
