More like a 2.5 Star. Local Bar and Kitchen is 100% more bar than kitchen and I wouldn't recommend any food here.
We got the Steelworker burger which, on paper, sounds amazing but ok the plate wasn't really anything like the description and didn't even come on a bun.
The chicken nachos were the saddest thing I've ever seen. They were like in the opening scene of Stepbrothers where Will Farrell makes nachos by melting shredded cheese in the microwave. Just a pinch of cheese, totally bland chicken, weird jalapeƱos that weren't spicy at all, diced tomatoes and sour cream topped this disaster.
The wings were fine. We got the Local Lickr' sauce.
The spinach artichoke dip was probably the best thing we ordered but once again, nothing to run home and tell momma about.
Luckily it was happy hour so half priced apps and we had a Groupon for a discount.
Let's talk about the Bar half. Great beer selection, large TVs and bar, and a nice young crowd make this a solid spot to go for a drink. Happy hour was 1/2 priced drafts too so we were drinking some tasty craft beers for $3.
The wait staff was knowledgeable and friendly and the place seemed clean enough.
Go for the beer and specials, stay away from the food. Go Pens.
