It’s been a few years since we last dined at Whispers, and after such a delicious dinner, I’m wondering what took us so long to return. We both ordered salads, which were generous enough to share - both were delicious. I had the cod, while Rob ordered the pork chop. Both were excellent. The dining room wasn’t very full, which made it easy to enjoy conversation without having to raise our voices. Our servers were attentive, and the dining room’s old world charm, complete with crisp white tablecloths, made the evening feel special. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and are already looking forward to going back.

This was our first time at Maree. It was quiet as it was a Monday evening. The staff were very pleasant and responsive, the food was really good. We will definitely return.

Had a wonderful dining experience at The Poached Pair Bistro in Point Pleasant! Everything was absolutely exquisite, from the food to the service. My wife ordered the filet mignon, which was outstanding, I had the lobster, which was excellent, and my son had the lamb shanks, which he absolutely loved. Every dish was delicious, the service was exceptional, and the entire experience made for a fantastic evening with family. It's always a pleasure when a restaurant gets everything right. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and look forward to returning. Love the fact it was a BYOB cause it wasn't exactly cheap.
