Reviews for The Pines Restaurant

Although the food was very good, I was a little disappointed with the portion size. We went (party of 2) for the Sunday Family Style Dinner. We got the meatloaf as our main course (a party of two is allowed one meat choice, a party of 3 is allowed two meat choices) - the meatloaf slices were not much bigger than the circumference of a soda can.....four slices that size for two people. I was a little shocked considering we got a large bowl of mashed potatoes. It was very disproportionate. In the end, we asked for a second helping of meatloaf. I also noticed that the table next to us had a party of 3. They ordered pork loin and fried chicken. It did not escape me that the plate of pork loin brought to the table had 6 slices of pork and the fried chicken bowl had at least 6 pieces of chicken - nor did it escape my notice that the waitress seemed to know one of the people in that party. So again, the food was good - no denying that - but taking into consideration that this is advertised as 'family style,' the portions are fairly skimpy. To me, family style means hearty meal.
