| - I've been to Le Brew House twice, and unfortunately, with the other options in the area, I'm going to need some more convincing before adding Le Brew House to our list of convenient go-to restaurants by our house.
Is it bad? Not at all. Is it good? Well, I'll just say that it has potential. The first time we went was on a Friday. They had a great deal on Newcastle ($2.50/bottle), which I thought would bring me in more often. The sandwich I had that night was decent, and the mixed drinks we had were pretty good as well. They also had a live jazz band playing, which, for me, was a great addition to a local place! The only issue was that because of all of the brick walls and hardwood flooring, the music was way too loud for the size of the establishment and could've really used something to mute the sound a bit. Although the place is nicely reworked on the inside, that's the one major flaw. For live music, they need to adjust the interior of the restaurant to handle the sound a little better. Regardless, we were there for a quick bite, and it wasn't bad.
The second time we went, we had a big group, and everyone just got a drink and some apps. Unfortunately, most of the apps just weren't very good. We ordered fries and we didn't even eat them, the chicken tenders were okay, but the ranch/blue cheese sauces that came out in pre-portioned plastic cups tasted sub-par, and the mild buffalo sauce used on the tenders was a lot hotter than expected (the spiciness is more of a heads up than a complaint, btw). It was definitely a disappointing trip that time.
There are a few saving graces, though. The service was great both times. Granted, it wasn't busy either time, so I can't vouch for the speed and service when it's a little more crowded, but the two times we've been there left me with nothing but compliments for the service. The drink prices were fair, the mixed drinks are pretty good, and they had a decent small assortment of beers on tap. On top of that, they get pretty good bands to play there, so there's a lot of potential. For me, they just need to modify the inside a little to account for the noise level. It's just too loud with or without a band. It looks nice, but that's the price they pay for hard flooring and exposed brick. If the food improves this place will be a great little find in higher end of Carson St., but for now, it's still hit-or-miss.
