| - We moved nearby and keep getting ads and coupons in the mail, so thought we'd give it a try.
Not what I was expecting. Very underwhelmed. My husband and I eat healthy(ish) and wanted to go out for some good salads. The Haymaker has about 8 salad options, all seemingly somewhat unique, so we stopped in.
I had the strawberry avocado salad for $12. This salad is literally spinach, 6 slices of red onion, a tiny bit of feta cheese, half an avocado and maybe 5/6 slices strawberries. Way overpriced. I have no issue paying $15 for a properly made, creative, bountiful salad.
My husband got the side salad (which is the Haymaker salad- mixed greens, tomato, croutons,feta) with cup of soup -chicken tortilla. This was $8 so a bit more reasonable. He asked for no feta- it came with feta. The soup was so salty that it felt like it burnt your mouth. My husband literally puts salt on his bag popcorn and he felt the soup was too salty.
At first I thought ... maybe we should expect decent salads from a country - style American food restaurant... BUT then I remembered all the wonderful salads I've had at steak houses and other establishments known for their seafood/steak/burgers.
Looking around it seemed that everyone had ordered deep fried food with a cocktail/beer.
We'll come back and try happy hour .. looks like they have well priced drinks and sliders/ fried items.
