| - Dropped in last night to grab a drink or two and some grub before going to a concert at the HOB. Things seem to have changed since my last visit.
My beloved Moscow Mule was still on the menu. And I still got a piping hot skillet of sugary sweet cornbread with my meal, but...my food was a little underwhelming. Or actually overwhelming, because it was hella salty. I'm a girl who puts salt on everything and could eat cubes of salt if they were available, but...this was a little too much for me.
Since it was happy hour, we got some of the signature tots for $5. They came with three dipping sauces - ketchup, honey mustard, and something else that was ranchy or onion-y. Although the menu promised sweet potato tots, we got regular ones. That was kind of a bummer.
For my meal, I got the 6 veg plate. Hello, salty veggies! Gone were the best Brussels sprouts I'd ever eaten (which I got on the veg plate last time) and they were replaced with green beans. Siiigh. It was a super salty plate of veggies that I'm not even going to bother describing. It was that underwhelming.
My boyfriend's mushroom gnocchi, though? THAT was some good stuff. I really wish I'd gotten that because it was cheaper and tastier!
We happened to be eating at the bar and could sense there was some tension among the staff. It was also kind of funny to me that servers kept coming behind the bar to chug red bull. Maybe we caught them on an off night, but no one seemed overly enthused to be working there. Weep womp.
I'm not giving up on Hodge's! Despite my salty meal and slightly salty service, I will go back! Maybe once it's nicer out and I can sit on the patio...
