The National Grill

After placing our order, we waited for an hour. Despite having two drinks on an empty stomach, I couldn't wait any longer. I decided to take an Uber from Blackstone to Worcester instead of risking a DUI or causing harm to someone. It was the end of the day and the restaurant wasn't busy, so I was puzzled by the delay. A restaurant's main function is to take orders, serve food, and collect payment - and if they can't do that, then are they really a restaurant? The waitstaff was friendly, but it seemed like they had experience dealing with a chef who may have lost our order. It's baffling how such a crucial process could have such glaring flaws. The restaurant ended up comping my drinks and the steak and cheese that I never got to eat. This seems like a major oversight that should have been addressed when creating the business plan. It was concerning to see other customers who arrived after us receive their food before us, indicating a lack of efficiency. I didn't get to try the food, but based on the overall service, it was disappointing. The atmosphere was pleasant, but having a porch with a nice view on a sunny day can only do so much to improve the experience.

I decided to take an Uber from Blackstone to Worcester instead of risking driving under the influence. It was the end of the day and the restaurant wasn't busy, so I was confused as to why it was taking so long. The waitstaff was friendly, but there seemed to be issues with the kitchen losing orders. I had to leave before my food was ready, and they ended up comping my drinks and the steak and cheese I never received. This seemed like a basic process that should have been addressed in their business plan. Overall, the service was terrible despite the nice atmosphere. I didn't get to try the food, but the waitstaff was friendly. Sitting on the porch on a nice day with a view is always a positive experience, but the overall service left much to be desired.

Unfortunately, this establishment has gone downhill in the past year, or so. My husband and I would frequently come here to sit on the deck and have a few drinks appetizers or lunch. The view is absolutely spectacular! However, the menu is completely different and sorry to say, sub par . In terms of food, it seems as if the focus has shifted from accommodating their golfing patrons as well as the public to The Barn for wedding receptions. Their previous menu, while not extensive, offered excellent fare, every time! Everything tasted freshly prepared and we were extremely happy with our choices. Currently, the food selections appear to be something out of the freezer, and/or deep fried. Needless to say, we are terribly disappointed.

The food is pretty good. A little overpriced for some of the entrees.

Just had my daughters baby shower there. Everything was perfect and food was amazing. Can’t wait to have another event there!
