| - Average at best. We went on a Monday evening and sat on the patio, which was a nice space. However, it wasn't busy, and as other reviewers have mentioned, the service was okay at best- kind of slow. Our server was nice, but he seemed too busy training at least two new employees (separately - we spoke with only the female trainee but observed him training a male as well). We were excited when we ordered a delicious-sounding drink. It came out strong but not necessarily tasty. We had to have lemonade added so we could enjoy it.
The food was also just okay. Not sure if bread service is standard, but we saw other tables with it and had to ask for ours. We started with gazpacho, which was probably the best thing I had, and it wasn't outstanding. The fried green tomatoes were good, but nothing to write home about. I ordered the elk. The meat was delicious but the pepper gnocchi lacked flavor and the orange balsamic glaze around the plate just seemed like a standard balsamic to me. There were only two pea pods served - more of a garnish than a side. My friend ordered the chicken, which was on the dry side. The wording on the menu made her think it would be gnocchi with a basil cream sauce, but it came out as a basil gnocchi with some kind of broth, just not what she expected. All in all, the experience was quite underwhelming considering the prices and the fact that we'd both been wanting to check out Gamekeepers for a while.
