| - Been here a few times now. Meh.
Its kinda hard for me to like honestly. I normally sit at the bar and was waiting till I had table service to review. The prices are ok ,not impressed with the menu or service. Menu is diffrent then most things in area. Much appricated but it doesnt flow. The idea of rock soup is a turn off. Chefs offering with no chalk board description , or staff description seems like we are being sold scraps.
Few immediate turn offs. You killed some guitars and put them on the wall. Every musician ive brought here is disturbed by it. Its like looking at headless animals for music folk. ( its a thing seriously ) The water glasses, coffee cups and everything else on your table set ups are not inviting. It honestly took me a min to realize that these where not dirty tables or unpolished glasses. This is how they are set up. Too much crap on the table. Makes me question how many people have touched it and how clean it is.
The food so far has been hit and miss. Crab cakes where great. Loaded fries we prob would not have gotten. Not sure if we read the menu wrong or it just said smoked meats. When I asked the bartender what comes on the fries he had to go back and ask the chef. I couldnt check my menu even though we where at the bar for happy hour specials , bartender took my menu. Loaded fries come with pork. Meat was ok sweet I personally am just not a fan of pulled pork. Sauce on fries was great. Fries where huge but lacking. For being loaded it seems like they just tossed well done fries in cheese threw chives and pork on top. Loaded to me implies a lot of topping like nachos or a potato. Other visits we have had the hash bites, wings, steak and fried pickels. Hash bites where good, ranch taste like its made in house or higher quality then most. B.c. though with the wings tasted old so did the crumbles. Wing sauce was great ,crispy and good for sharing. Can not comment of fried pickels as you where out of them. The steak my friend had I would have sent back. Plate and eggs looked fine, ordered med rare came out no pink no blood and grey well done. He was drunk so he just ate it.
The service is just meh. I do not expect fine dining by any means. Its lacking though at freedombeat. I noticed when I come in the bar during happy hour if your a single top the bartender does not advertise happy hour. Its not on the menus either. The fact that you have to ask about it is cheap. Every couple or party that came in a group was offered happy hour. Maybe just that bartenders startegy. Did not find the beer selection to be that great. No cider , did not see great IPA selection. The selection seems picked by the beer rep. Bartender was also unable to explain goose island beer to patron next to me. Bartender never checked on me after I got my food. He in fact left, closed his drawer and didnt switch me over. After hearing employees complain about union crap for 30 mins during shift change. I was over needing a box and just paid & left my food. Now to our table service. For some reason our waitresses seemed super nervous and unsure. No big deal it eventually made us uncomfortable though. She could not seem to understand we are trying to try all your happy hour stuff. Asked her several times to put everything in at once. We finally had to just pick one to be served first because she did not get we want apps as an entree. Super timid interuptive water refills, did not describe hash bites right at all. Was not aware of your 86'd items. Then the cake topper for me with her was when she gave me a Female the check. If im unsure or to be neutral I set it in the middle and say thank you no rush. He had to ask her for then check then she gives to me. ????????? No eye conatct like afraid to just talk to us. She was nice and kept making rounds. Her lack of comfort in her job did not add anything to the experiance. If her co workers are going to complain and ignore me for need to discuss their lack of compensation. Sorry for what service I was provided they are over paid. Id expect her to kinda have to basics down. She was super nervous , and unknowlable. It made us feel awkward. It really was bad , it was my friend I was with. I cant imagine if it had been a date.
Friendly suggestions, cider or fruit beer, having more live music. We tried to play trivia ( love this idea ) cards where all the same though and we couldnt talk to each other over freedom beats speaker competing with casino floor music. Food ok , service needs improvement. Nice reasonably priced menu. Hotel is nice , pool is wonderful. If freedom beat came up a little it would complete the package.
