Review by AlyKat731 for Donovan’s Bar & Grill

Despite the two negative reviews that were left, my family and I decided to give the restaurant a try anyway and form our own opinions. Please realize this restaurant has only been open for two months so the previous two reviewers clearly weren't giving any room for "growing pains". The hostess and wait staff were extremely friendly and accomodating. The menu was diverse and for those that can make it, they even offer a 7-day early bird special I noticed (11-5 every day that includes a full meal with soup, salad, etc). Anyway, we went on Sunday evening at apx 7:30 pm, I ordered the chicken cheese steak, my husband ordered fettucine alfredo, and my son had a burger. We ordered potato skins for an appetizer and I also had a minestrone soup. The food came out lightning fast, was good, nothing was over or under-cooked. Our waiter was a doll (Anthony) and although he did bring out the wrong item initially (I ordered mashed potatoes and received fries), he immediately went back and got the correct item, no biggie. Overall, we enjoyed the food and atmosphere and WILL go back again. I also noticed that they offer entertainment during the week (such as karaoke and ladies nights). I advise everyone to make your own decisions based on YOUR experience and not the reviews of others, ESPECIALLY when the restaurant is brand new. :-)
