| - After reading the good and bad reviews, my husband and I decided to try it anyway figuring at the very least, we could grab a drink and an appetizer if nothing seemed appealing to us or if it was really overpriced. The menus had a printing date of June 2013, so I'm guessing they have adjusted their prices according to the market and the complaints. A Peach Ale from Four Peaks was $5 ($4 on reverse HH) instead of the $7 I was expecting based upon another review. Good to know they seemingly listen to folks. The decor/ambience is pretty awesome and fills a void this area has been lacking. Our server was extremely friendly and on top of things (minus one thing I'll note below). We ordered the 110-minute egg duck fat fries as an appetizer. They were good, but you have to mix the fries into the eggs, dip the fry into the egg and then into the sauce served on the side for the flavors to mesh well. I wouldn't dip a fry straight into the sauce. As their name indicates, the sauce is really salty on its own. Extremely good when dipped right. We also ordered (from the reverse happy hour menu) a pork taco and the open-faced BLT to split. The taco (yes, only one per order) is a pretty good size and was decent. The pork was really smoky and smoked maybe a little too long because it was on the verge of being dry. (Sidenote- we own our own smoker and are particular about how we like our smoked meats to be.) The open-faced BLT was too much for us. We had to ask for a steak knife to cut through it. It was good, but, we were pretty disappointed that the menu didn't state that it came with french fries (or any side for that matter...it appeared to be an a la carte dish)-- nor did our server bother to tell us it came with a huge portion of fries. Why on earth would we want MORE fires when we had your 110-minute egg french fry appetizer? We didn't even touch one of them...such a waste of food. Had we known, we would have definitely asked to sub it out with a side salad, even if it cost an extra buck or two. We eat pretty healthy in general and so it was our "cheat day," but, it was way too much fried food on one plate, even for a cheat day. The bacon was really crispy, which my husband liked. I like mine more grizzly/less done. The tomato in the BLT is a fried green tomato and is really good. They have a great patio for Fall/Spring if you are ever in need of a good patio to enjoy the day on. All in all, we decided we would be back but it would most likely be for happy hour drinks and an appetizer rather than an entire meal. Not bad, but a little too much of a fried/fatty menu for us personally. Note- there are some healthy options on the menu, but some of them have random things in them that I'd personally like to modify out. They won't let you modify SOME of the dishes, which prevented us from ordering those specific things. I'd recommend at least trying this spot out, though.
