Owner's Ed and Shahnaz could not have been more accommodating and went beyond the call of duty after previous discussions and plans to create a memorable dining experience for a very special guest included in my party of four. Pastor Jerry Christian, an Allentown, PA adopted native son originally from Ohio was a former Professional Allentown Jet and successful retired co-business owner with his lovely wife Roberta, was recently honored by the City of Allentown, PA for his community service - mentoring young men and boys over decades with a dedicated street name and was my guest of honor at Union and Finch. Ed and Shahnaz added a special touch to personalize the entire dining experience, which translated into my party of four and more notably Pastor Jerry feeling so welcomed, receiving the royal treatment. I would be remiss to not mention our amazing Dining Attendant - Sarah, who was such a sweet heart, anticipated/tended to the party’s every need, made sure the beverage glasses were also full and really made Pastor Jerry feel as if he was a beloved patron who frequently dined at Union and Finch although this was his first visit to the restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious, served in a timely manner and enjoyed by us all. Thank you - Ed & Shanantz for the delicious complimentary chocolate cake and ice cream! Finally, my husband and I, loved loved, loved our Cranberry Spritzers prepared at my request with the precise ratio of cranberry juice, Seltzer Water ( Not Tonic), ice and fruit twist. Perfect execution by the mixologist, the best tasting Cranberry Spritzer we have had to date! As Pastor Jerry continues to point souls to Christ, based upon his dining reaction I am certain he will also make recommendations to your lovely establishment. Thank you again - Ed, Shahnaz and Sarah for the important roles you all played in creating such a memorable experience for my party and honored distinguished guest! We look forward to dining again at Union and Finch!

Marblehead never fails to impress! The menu features highlighting oysters were thoughtful and inventive. I thoroughly enjoyed the Six_Pack of Baked Oysters appetizer as well as the Roasted Oysters and Shrimp Etouffee. Absolutely scrumptious!

We celebrated 3 birthdays in our party of six this past Saturday evening. Jessie was our waiter and he was exceptional- pleasant and attentive. The manager checked in with us and she too was attentive and encouraged us to reach out if we needed anything. Food and drinks were very good. And the complimentary birthday desserts were wonderful! We left with leftovers, full stomachs and pleasant memories. Thank you, Too Cut!
