Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
At The Rail offers a charming dining experience with "excellent food" and "wonderful service and atmosphere." While the brunch buffet is praised for its fresh, delicious options, some reviews note inconsistency in food quality and music volume. Highlights include the French Toast Casserole and a pleasant outdoor setting overlooking the golf course.

    We normally enjoy The Rail. This past experience was horrible. The dinning room was packed with large groups of Christmas parties going on. People were standing in groups next to our table, shouting at each other because it was as so loud. There is no way they should have accepted our reservation. We gave it a chance, but had to leave before we ordered because the noise and drunks were too much to tolerate. This was an obvious management break down, we made the reservation about an hour before arriving, the judgement to accept a new reservation while the Christmas Party chaos was going on in their dinning room leaves us to question the possibility of ever going back.

    The food that was available was good but the service was poor. Certain entree selections were out of stock, as they were the day before.

    My friends and I had a lovely afternoon lunch! Our soups and sandwiches were delicious. Our server was especially attentive and helpful. I’m glad I chose this restaurant to have lunch after our fall foliage train ride this afternoon.

    This was our first time there the ambience service and everything was great, but the food wasn’t what I thought. I don’t know if it’s because it wasn’t as busy but the food was on the dry side and we order a side of pancakes and didn’t seem fresh as well..

    Calimari was overcooked. Pork chop was barely cooked...rare as sushi inside. "Roast potatoes" were boiled, not roasted. No seasoning...not even salt on anything. Any one of these I might overlook; together means it is a kitchen that doesn't care

    We enjoyed a lovely view out the large windows. We were delighted with the generous cranberry turkey club and Ahi tuna sandwiches we selected. Service was excellent and our waiter had an engaging personality. Even more delighted with the reasonableness of the check. We will definitely return.
