    The service was very welcoming and friendly. The food was mouthwatering. I literally was moaning it was so good. New favorite spot we will be back! The cheese in the french onion soup was excellent. My husband loved the house dill dressing were trying to mimic it was so fresh!

    Was greeted at the door as soon as I walked in. Seated with water glasses filled. Server came right over and was helpful with drink selections. I relaxed and listened to music while the rest of my party arrived. The food came out at the perfect time. Delicious! Great night out. I love this restaurant!

    I wanted to take my mother in law out to a nice restaurant for dinner, and Kevin’s did not disappoint! Our reservation was for 6:30 but they were ready for us when we walked in the door ten minutes early. Our server was sweet and very attentive to making sure we had a good night. The drinks were fantastic and the food was even better! I will be dinning at Kevin’s frequently from now on!

    We have never had a bad meal at Kevin's! Service is amazing and they always accommodates all our allergies. Drinks are fabulous with a wide variety of options. We had salmon gluten free and it was so tasty! Also, the pork chop was Fantastic! It was graduation for many colleges and we were able to get in for a table of 4 prior to the crowds and we had the best service! We will definitely go there again for a wonderful meal!

    All of our meals were prepared without disappointment. I would say our steaks were on par with Peter Lugers. Everything went fantastically until we were almost finished with our main course. Some of us were done eating - some still eating. Two servers/bussers that we had not seen before came to the table, asked one of us if they were done then proceeded to clear the entire table - while two of us were still eating. I tried to ask them to wait to take any dishes until we were all finished but was ignored. When they came to me, I had to ask to not have my plate nor my son’s taken yet. The look I got was interesting - like I should have been done by now. We will definitely be back but will certainly notify our waitress or other management should something similar happen again.

    We had dinner at Kevin’s to check out the restaurant prior to going there for Mother’s Day. We were totally pleased with everything we had. Food - excellent. Service - excellent. Even requested the same waitress for our Mother’s Day reservation. Ambiance - fantastic. Enjoyed our table side conversations because background noise was minimal
