| - Overall, I do recommend the Flying Hound. In particular they have great outdoor seating, I think the little fire ring area with chairs would be a great place to visit with friends on a nice evening over drinks. The service is ok. Once I ordered a sandwich and specifically asked for no tomatoes and when they brought it to me with them on the sandwich I let the server know I had ordered the sandwich without and he took it back to the kitchen. He then came back two minutes later with essentially the same sandwich, they had simply taken the tomatoes off of it, not made me a new one. Thankfully I'm not allergic to tomatoes, however, anyone who doesn't like tomatoes knows that the flavor of the seeds and drippings are very noticeable, hence,I would have appreciated a new sandwich. I have had the mussels there, they were good, although not as good as the mussels at Sardines. The patio salad is excellent,I highly recommend it. I also recommend the beer cheese soup. The French onion soup is meh. It came with one slice of muenster cheese laid over the bowl and likely simply microwaved until it melted. A good French onion soup is topped with broiled cheese, typically Swiss or Gruyere. One more recommendation I have for this restaurant is to move the ashtray for employees out of sight of the guests dining outside. Every single time I've been to this restaurant and dined outside I had a direct view of the kitchen staff smoking, not particularly appetizing. Overall a decent restaurant which I would still recommend.
