| - I'm at a solid 3.5 right now, so I'll round up to 4 for the time being since I definitely see the potential.
We stopped by two Saturdays ago in the afternoon after catching an IMAX movie with the little guy. There was a special menu for kids, I think, but he just wanted the wings. He ate most of them, so I don't think there were any complaints there.
Now onto our food. My whole purpose in coming here? I really, really wanted to try the chicken pot pie everyone has been talking about and was slightly heartbroken to see they only serve them on certain days. I did see a soft pretzel with beer cheese that had my name all over it, though. I had also read about the low country fried chicken, so I tried that instead with a side salad and cup of their soup of the day. The soup tasted homemade, but it was just OK. The salad was so lightly dressed that it actually tasted like nothing was on it--and trust me, I don't like over-dressed salads. It was super fresh, though with nice, crispy romaine lettuce. Now, the soft pretzel loaves with beer cheese sauce were everything I wanted and more. Homemade soft and salty loaves of pretzels with a rich cheese sauce spiked with beer? How could that be wrong? The chicken--well, I'm going to get some slack for this but it really wasn't my thing. With that being said, I will say the dish was prepared very well with perfectly tender and juicy chicken, lightly battered and glazed with bourbon glaze. What I didn't like was just how sweet it was, but that's just me.
Prices were a little steep, but I figure that has something to do with the freshness and quality of the food. I'll definitely be back to try that darn pot pie, too!
