| - We were looking for a place to get a beer and some good food with my boyfriend's family in Huntersville and stumbled upon Killingtons, and I am glad we did. They have a small but concise beer menu, including Oskar Blues Gordon's Ale, which is a rare find on tap. The food was perfect from appetizers to entrees.
We had the toasted ravioli as an appetizer. The cheese inside the ravioli was delicious, not to melty, not oily like some cheese can get when hot.
I ordered a Caesar salad because I they make all their dressing in house. I was expecting a small but well made salad. Out comes this gigantic bowl of salad with every single piece of lettuce perfectly coated with dressing and Asiago & Parmegiano Reggiano cheeses. I was so full from the huge salad that I had a hard time eating my entree!
I ordered the Killingtons Dip, a French Dip with Au Jus. They use medium rare top round and it tasted like it was just sliced. It was perfect. The Waitress said it was their most popular menu item and I can understand why. I got the fries as a side, which were double fried, soft yet crispy.
My boyfriend had the bacon encrusted meatloaf sandwich with mushroom gravy and homemade chips which he thoroughly enjoyed. The chips were also wonderful, crunchy but not greasy.
Everyone at the table was so pleased with their food that the next morning they suggested seeing if Killingtons served breakfast!
Our server was wonderful and patient with us. It's a great place to grab a beer, watch a game on one of the numerous flat screen tvs or take your family out for dinner. The menu is varied, from burgers to Grand Marnier spaghetti. I just wish it was closer to us in Uptown!
