We recently went here for my wife's anniversary with a group of 4. As usual, the food and service were very good. Unfortunately, when someone in our party mentioned it was my wife's birthday (actually, it was mentioned several times) there was either no acknowledgement, or a dessert menu was given to us, and we were asked if we wanted to order anything. We have been coming here 30 years for our anniversary and some birthdays and have always been brought a dessert for free, usually a cannolo. I know they are under no obligation to provide this, but I'm curious why this was stopped after such a long time. It is the small things that matter.

Great food. Very good waitress. The steak was delicious as were the sides. A little noisy but it was Friday 7:00. Only complaint is we had to wait about 15 minutes for our reserved booth and they asked us to stay outside in the foyer. However, we understand it was a busy night. We recommend Kelsey’s!

Our dinner reservations were for 4:30, Thursday afternoon. Restaurant area was quiet and inviting. When we finished our dinner, 6:30pm, restaurant was full but not overly loud. Our group of four enjoyed our dinner! Food was excellent; we had butternut squash crab soup, cream of crab soup, shrimp croissant, crab cake sandwich, and steamed shrimp. Service was excellent and friendly.

You know I think we caught the bartenders on an off night. We have dined here several times but never at the bar. We like to come here to watch sports, so many tvs & the food is fantastic, not a usual combo. On Saturday pm, we came in to watch the ACC tournament final game. The bartenders seemed bothered and honestly a bit rude/dismissive. I don't think we did anything to irritate them but who knows. We love the place, we will be back but maybe keep to the tables.

Shout out to our server, Alisshia (so sorry if I misspelled your name!), but she was AMAZING! She was especially wonderful to our 3 children. If you eat here, ask if Alisshia is working and request her section.
