Doolittles Woodfire Grill

Great Salads, Wings, Wine. We Love Doolittles. The wings are fantastic, woodfired, not deep fried. The salads are unique and generous. Anything from the woodfire is great! Ambiance is very nice, and the staff is friendly and personable. It's our favorite late evening place to go. They are definitely on their feet with the new menu and venue. I highly recommend them!…

Decent for the area. If it is fine dining that you are after, this is not your place. There are several dishes that they do quite well here though and given the lack of options in the area, it is a fine choice. Most of the items from the woodfire oven are pretty flavorful. They are not as dried out as Bonfire down the road tends to make things and uses a more sensible variety of wood. I am a foodie so the implication that it is palatable to suburbanites that know no better is not accurate. In particular the buffalo wings (not traditional but a nice spin) and the pulled pork sandwich are notable and consistent. They also do burgers very well and have kept some of the pastas that people loved from their previous menu. We have been several times since they remodeled and while it is not as fancy as it is trying to be, to compare it to Applebees is perplexing.…

I will never be back. We went here for dinner and some drinks one night. The food was slightly better than the dennys down the street, the drinks were overpriced. BUT on cliff there isnt much of an option. HOWEVER, we paid the bill with mostly cash and credit. Our waitress asked if we needed change, we said no. She ran the credit card and brought it back. Rather than taking the money she left it at the table. There was 3 of us there, all over 30 and professionally dressed. Two of us went into the bathroom and the other went to start the car. We left the building. The next thing i know the hostess was running after us, when he approached he stated that we needed to pay for our bill. I stated it was at the table that waitress left it there. He informed me they called the police and threatend to have us arrested for "dining and ditching". I asked why would we pay with credit card if we were trying to leave. No answer. I asked if they would question the employees. I was told they trust their staff. I asked if they would talk to the waitress who ask us if we needed change and NEVER collected it. They repeated themselves that they trust their employees. I think she stole it or someone else did. WE WERE FORCED TO REPAY OUR BILL. When i called the owner of the company (after trying to even talk to the general manager, that apparently didnt understand that we were victims as well) he said they could do nothing and were willing to do nothing. This was a terrible place that handeled a bad situation very badly. I would never go there again. I urge you not to as well.…

Suburban doo-doo. This is yet another of the suburban restaurants that try to make mediocrity work with buzz words like "woodfire" and appealing decor. Don't let it fool you. If you are out for a beer and a burger it is passable but anything more than that and it is a stretch. After a first disappointment, we gave it another try becasue we live close but again it was terrible. Beware of the positive reviews - I fear that most suburbanites around this area are likely basing their opinion upon a recent visit to Applebees and have no clue as to what good food is supposed to taste like.…
