   We were there for the Thanksgiving evening. Great atmosphere. Our server, Dierdre was wonderful. Top notch. We enjoyed the Turkey Entree and Prime Rib. Way too much food :) so we have more to eat at home. The oyster appetizer was also delicious but they were small. We will definitely be back!

   Arrived on time for our reservation on Thanksgiving. We were sat in the bar by the kitchen. We were greeted by a very nice waitress, very attentive. We started with the Charbroiled butter and Parmesan cheese. Oysters. The oysters arrived and the had an orange creamy cheese on them not how they were described on menu. The charbroil oysters didn’t look charbroiled, just heated. I ordered the salmon and had different veggies then described on menu, salmon very fishy taste. My husband ordered prime rib, there was a hunk of greasy fat the size of my had on his plate, prime rib was very thin about 1/2 inch thick. The prime rib look reheated under a broiler, it was not medium like ordered, well done. I called the waitress the prime rib is unexceptionable. The waitress said she would take it back and bring him something else, my husband chose the turkey dinner. Well the turkey dinner was one scoop of mash, one scoop of sweet potato, a metal cup ( like you get ketchup in) cranberry sauce, one scoop of veggies, dried out turkey ( like the precooked smoke turkey breast you get at Costco). Again the waitress was very good, the restaurant was great atmosphere but food described on menu was not exactly what you get , so if you have allergies please let them know. We were told that fat comes with prime rib per chef. I think the chef took the holiday off and they were serving reheated food per my opinion. We won’t be back. There were other bad reviews for Thanksgiving day check them out their reviews.

   My husband and I went for Thanksgiving dinner. We both ordered whiskey sours. Mine was terrible - basically seltzer. We ordered the fried green tomato appetizer, which was very good. The turkey dinner was not. The turkey was smokey, thick, and barely warm. The sides consisted of a couple tablespoons each of mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes, a quarter cup of stuffing that was mostly rice, a teaspoon of cranberry, and brussel sprouts (which we both hate but were told we couldn't get a substitute). It was definitely not worth the $42 price.

   Went for Thanksgiving. No wait. Server, Tosh, was attentive and professional. The turkey was tender, flavourful, and moist. Loved the sides. I would highly recommend going.

   We had a wonderful dinner at Celeste. Our first time here today and everything was outstanding. From the service, to the food to the wine list - everything was great. We will definitely be back!

   The staff went overboard in making us feel like our meal was a very special occasion. The meal itself, while it was traditional Turkey, went above and beyond traditional. Our server, Dedra, made us feel right at home. Will return here again. Once of the best restaurants on the island!

    Service was very slow. I ordered a white wine spritzer. I could tell by the look on my server’s face I should have ordered something else. If something is ordered and the staff doesn’t know how to make it, I would rather they say that. I would rather the honesty and then I could have ordered something else and not been disappointed. The glass was placed in front of me with the bottom filled with what looked like water. The server poured the wine into that and asked if I wanted ice. Obviously this drink has never been made before and it tasted that way. It just got worse from there. My dinner looked like it had been sitting there for awhile. The mashed potatoes texture were hard, glossy and cold, as if they had been sitting there. The crab cake dinners were inconsistent one was spicy and the rice not tasty. My boyfriend never complains but was not happy with his dinner. We ordered the bread pudding, which was delicious the last time, we were there. Unfortunately not this time, tasteless and dry. Not the best of experiences. Very disappointed.
