| - The food needs to catch up to the great atmosphere.
I ate at Burntwood Tavern during happy hour on a Saturday. I picked this location for its rustic design, vaulted sealing, cabin in the woods like ambiance, and warm fireplace. I really felt like I spent the afternoon on a getaway in a cabin in the woods or at a ski-resort lodge. It was relaxing and calming, truly a healing experience.
When we arrived shortly after four in the evening the parking lot was pretty full. "Ugh!" We entered the front door and I saw that everyone was packed into the bar area :) I breathed a sigh of relief :) A few parties sat in the dinning area. The hostess sat us far enough away from the beautiful fireplace that I thought I wasn't going to be able to enjoy it's warmth, but it's heat reached us even three tables away from it. (I wondered how hot the fire felt sitting near it). The waiter must have been new because he didn't tell us about any specials, the menu wasn't very familiar to him, and something just didn't seem right. I watched and listened to the waitress serving the table next to us and sure enough she rocked it. Yep, this guy must be new.
I ordered the Burntwood Burger and my company ordered a burger as well. The bun was horrible. Sorry, it was. I don't like to say it, but I need to. The bun could have been the cheap buns you buy in bulk for picnics--they fall apart easily on the burger and are dry. The chef cooked the burger according to my order. The meat, however, was lacking in flavor. (The next day I ate a leftover burger from a well known restaurant that blew this burger out of the water with its flavor and perfect bun). The fries were delicious! And the presentation was picture perfect.
We followed up the main course with desert. I loved it there desert. I love it because the serving size is a small glass--just enough to satisfy my sweet tooth. Their 5 selections of deserts are varied enough to ensure that someone in your party will find something they'd like to try--and you won't feel bad for eating too much! That's a plus.
One con, other than the burger. The tables wobbled. I witnessed one family move to another table because the slant of their table was too great. Our table wobbled, but just enough so that we only had to be careful when we leaned on the table. I think my company spilt my coffee a few times.
I hope you enjoy the ambiance and other food items.
