| - We took my parents here for Father's Day dinner last month. We had never been before but had heard good things and were looking to try something new. I think Eddie's delivered.
The place inside is small, but has a large patio. I loved the decor and it felt like a nice mix between casual and upscale. We were seated at a large table in the back, so it was nice to be able to spread out.
We had my 3 year old son with us and they gave him a dry erase board and some markers to color with. I thought it was a nice touch (much different than the standard crayons) and it kept his attention for most of the night.
The food was really good. We started with the chicken lollipops. Loved those! I had the burger with the pretzel bun. It was REALLY good. The bun made it. My dad and husband both had the bacon infused meatloaf and loved it. My mom had the chicken and really liked it. My son had the mac & cheese. I also tried it, and it was really good, and he loved it, but be warned if your kids don't like foo-foo gourmet type mac & cheese, this isn't for them.
In my opinion, what made the meal was the drinks we started with. I love red sangria, which I ordered, and loved it. But my mom ordered the white sangria and OH MY HEAVENS. If you go here and get nothing but the white sangria, you will not regret it. It was fabulous.
The service was really great. My dad thought he started having an allergic reaction to a spice on the chicken lollipops (he has yet to figure out what the spice is that he is allergic to. This wasn't the first time, and I'm sure won't be the last until he gets a food allergy test done). So we casually asked the waiter if he knew what the spices were, because we were curious and thought we could narrow it down. He did not have the slightest clue but went and talked to Eddie himself about the spices used for the chicken lollipops. It was no big deal and it wasn't a severe reaction, and he came back with as much info as he could for us. We thought that was a really nice touch and appreciated his inquiry.
The place isn't cheap, but you get a lot of food. And bottom line, the food is good. I would love to come back to try their happy hour!
