| - We visited on a Saturday night, just before the overwhelming Willoughby Bar Rush began.
The food here is good. Not great, but good. We started with the Erie Street Pretzels, which had a great flavor, but were nothing too special. I ordered a steak salad. The steak in the salad was prepared medium, as i had requested. the salad itself was made of a mix of iceberg and romaine. Seriously, why do any restaurants other than, say, fast food chains use iceberg? gross. I also didn't like the grilled onions on the salad at all.
I also ordered a side of macaroni and cheese. It seemed to be made from the same cheese sauce that came out with our pretzels, a little shredded cheddar, and a sprinkle of bread crumbs on top. Passable, but Willoughby Brewing Company's mac and cheese is far superior.
I was impressed by the service, even as the bar got busier. Their beer selection is decent and reasonably priced. Their jukebox was awesome on the evening we visited (although we made our exit once somebody started playing Whitney Houston).
Overall, not bad. Not great, either. But not bad.
