Chapter One Food & Drink.

We came to Mystic for the day and arrived at noon - as expected many places were packed but Chapter One had room.

It was a good choice.

Unique menu - the Devils on Horseback was recommended as a starter and true to the recommendation it was very good.

They were able to be flexible with the entree and did a great BLT without mayo or lettuce, and swapped out the fries for broccoli.

The omlet was a bit onion heavy, our server Mia offered to redo it, and when we decided to keep it and pick out the onions she comped it.

Highly recommend Chapter One and ask for Mia. We need more conscientious professionals like her.

PROs:
-They were open
-no wait
-comped one glass of wine that we didn't even complain about or ask to be comped bc they massacred the meal and our server knew it.

CONS:
-no wait when every restaurant in Mystic has a wait
on a Sat night.
-The server coming over after a bit of a wait and saying "Hi, are you ready to order?"
-The Food. Literally all of it. Old "Heirloom" (hardly) Tomatoes on the Caprese Salad. The Overcooked Grey Green Broccoli on with her blood-raw Filet which was anything, but medium well. The rubbery shrimp. The overly chewy YellowFin Tuna.
-Wanted to just pay and leave without saying a word. Server noticed the blood on the plate and was embarrassed. She sent the Filet back for us. Filet returned burnt and dry.
-overpriced for the lack of quality.

In the paradigm of perceived value... Chapter One fits the "High Price/Low Quality/Low Value" category to a T. We went to Arethusa a Tavolo a week later and paid double of what our Crapter One bill was.... Arethusa is High Price / High Quality / High Value and I'd go there any day of the week. Chapter One should become Chapter 7, 11, or 13.

The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive. Our server was wonderful.
Food is very good. Nice selection of sandwiches that come w excellent sides. Pub atmosphere yet family friendly.

Four of us went to celebrate my little sisters birthday. I'm here very often but today was epic. Michelle the waitress, has been there for so long and I love her. The best. The bar tenders Andrea and new one Haley were great.

We had wine and Sangria; wings, fries and tenders. All was great as usual. We sat at the bar the entire time. Met some new people and chatted the entire time.

Music was good as well. There is always a good time at chapter one. This was a Wednesday and it was packed!!!

My family and I had gotten to Chapter One and before being seated by the door I asked to be sat elsewhere since I have a one year old and it was extremely cold out. The manager Julia rolled her eyes and started huffing and puffing as she walked away. When I asked why she did that, her response was that she was frustrated because the tables she had in the back were reserved so she needed to find a table for us so she "apologized" LOL! Her attitude as a General Manager is VERY SHITTY and her reason for giving us an attitude was terrible. There was no reason whatsoever as to why she needed to give us an attitude!

Aside from her, our service was great thanks to Michelle, as always. We go there very frequently and she's usually the one who serves us and is amazing every time!

My husband and son and I stopped here for dinner while down visiting the Aquarium a week ago.
Miranda was our server and she could not have been sweeter and more accommodating of our intention to get our exhausted toddler fed ASAP.
We got the roasted tomato bruschetta and wings for appetizers, while our son ate his cheeseburger and French fries. The bruschetta was amazing. I am personally not a raw tomato fan but love roasted tomatoes and never get to enjoy bruschetta because of that fact, so this was a happy surprise that did not disappoint. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his wings, as well.
I opted for the tuna entree and my husband got the Cajun chicken pasta. We both loved our meals. They were massive portions, honestly. We were stuffed. The stir fry rice that came with the tuna was incredible.
Service was quick. We were in and out, which was perfect for us. Pricing was fair for the portion sizes and the quality of the food we got, so no complains there.
We would absolutely be back!

Friendly help.
Nice selection of draft beers.
My favorite is the Narragansett draft.
Great choice to stop in for drinks.
We stopped in for a quick drink, then a tasty lunch while in the area.
We would definitely return.

Friendly bartenders, good value at Happy Hour. 2$ Clams or Ousters from the raw bar, nice selection of draft beers. The decor is simple and not cluttered. It's a nice place to gather in Mystic.

Dropped by for dinner and found the food pretty disappointing. Think of this place more as a bar with some food rather than a restaurant with a bar. The vibe is a bit weird as there are empty picture hangers on the wall because the restaurant turns into a 'club' at night, and the art/photos were getting damaged, stolen, etc., so the management has taken things off the walls (so they are bare) but have left the hangers there. Place is just odd.

We came to Mystic after our 30th Anniversary trip to Las Vegas was cancelled. Our meal from start to finish was simply fabulous. Yanitza was gracious and quite possibly the best Server/Bartender we have ever had! The oysters, the yellow fin tuna and the calamari was incredible. Your restaurant definitely helped turn a very disappointing weekend into a wonderful experience-THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!
