| - I give restaurants a 3 strike rule, and most of the time never hit it. Well, add this one to the list. Went last sat night.
Strike 1- atmosphere. I was expecting it to be a tad bit darker than a cafeteria but it was super bright in there. It didn't help that the light at our table was missing its cover. You'd think a nice tavern would invite relaxation with a little dimmer lighting, but not so much here.
Strike 2- Menu. Lots of choices, which usually gets a small, local place in trouble. If you no longer offer an item or something has changed, please update your menu accordingly. Gf wanted to order pork chops, but was informed they no longer offer them. I was set on the new offering of ribs and pulled BBQ chicken. When I ordered it I was informed it's actually not pulled chicken, but a choice of chicken breast or pulled pork. It's pretty simple, update your menu when things change.
Strike 3- food. Gf got the salmon and said it was decent, but nothing special. I got the ribs, which were the new offering. Welp, pretty confident they were frozen ribs slapped into an oven and slathered with some grocery store BBQ sauce. If I wanted that, I'd go down to the local grocer and spend a lot less money reheating something frozen myself. If you can't offer a menu with items that you make fresh, then why have a restaurant. I can play "chef" at home by reheating some frozen junk.
Anyways, pretty good beer selection and the place really good be a good spot, but needs a lot of changes.
