| - I haven't been there since it was in the old house down the road. It used to be a cool place for a quick, decent lunch or Sunday afternoon brunch. My family and I wanted to find a place with outdoor seating since it was a gorgeous day. Based on our experience, we won't be going back anytime soon.
First of all, its a bar, so our food expectations were low, but I thought it would at least be as good as it was in the old location. That, and the fact that 131 Main is right next door so I figured EBB&G had better be on their game.
Here's our feedback based on what we had:
No drinks
Fried Pickles: Thin, heavily salted and battered, greasy, and over-cooked (soggy and limp.)
Fish Tacos: Standard flour tortilla with a dab of thousand island, lettuce, tomatoes, and what has got to be the smallest chunk of fried fish I'd ever seen. Nary a nugget of fish in each taco. Heavily battered and fried dry as a bone. Big mistake.
Sweet potato fries: Tasted good but under-cooked & soggy.
California style turkey burger: My son thought it was great actually. The best thing at the table.
Cobb Salad: Large with lots of iceberg lettuce. Decent.
The service was average. Our server was fairly attentive but didn't really seem to give a rat's whether we were actually pleased with our food. She was kind of going through the motions.
Summary: It's a bar. Best for drinks and burgers. If you're sober and hungry, think twice.
