| - This place will be out of business soon.
The place was a ghost town on a nice Thursday evening.
Took my family with the Groupon, which conveniently made no mention of how restrictive the terms were. But OK, it was explained to us upon presenting the coupon. So I ordered a Four Peaks Hop Knot (one of the allowed beers) - "sorry, we're out". I love IPAs so I asked if they were substituting one of their other beers. Nope! I don't mind when a restaurant runs out of something, but I do mind if they don't make a reasonable accommodation with a similar item. My wife wanted a Sierra Nevada (she had seen the logo on the window covering on the way into the "gastropub") - nope, don't stock Sierra Nevada!
Food was marginal. Carbonara (supposedly a specialty), was nothing special and a little greasy. Mine is 10 times better - expected more as this place used to be a supposedly nice Italian restaurant - you can tell because they didn't even change the display on the ordering software visible from the table. And my receipt didn't have the correct name on it! Blue bison burger was good and I'd give thumbs up to the French fries, but if the fries are the highlight of the meal, something is wrong!
Dessert selection with the Groupon was too limited, so we couldn't get the 2 we wanted to try. And, you couldn't even pay the difference over "the allowed" amount. Chocolate cake was pretty dry.
Service was a little surly, and no follow-up by anybody resembling a manager.
Can't figure how Yelp gives this place 4/5 stars when there's a bunch of poor reviews, but don't waste your time here, which is too bad because it's got easy parking, theoretically a good beer selection, and a nice location, but it won't survive.
