I'll admit it, I did not want to like this place because it took Palate away. But we went for Saturday dinner and I have to admit I was pleasantly surprised. I thought it was going to be super cheesy (really... with a name like Local Breeze?! Really?!) Thank goodness there was no Jimmy Buffett playing or we would've gotten the heck outta dodge. The music was good, but the atmosphere was missing something. Oh, and people. It was missing people. The place was practically empty! On a Saturday night. Uh oh. Too bad, cause the patio is really nice and they offer s'more makings over their fire pit (what... $7 is a bargain for that...right?) There is also a bean bag toss game (thank goodness for free) with a bar right next to it ($5 Kiltlifters... hmm...)
This place has potential, but needs to work out the kinks. Why the bathroom is dirty when the restaurant is empty is beyond me. Seriously guys, are you too busy to clean that up?
The food: The pork chops were a miss compared to everything else ordered. The tilapia (lemon) was yummy and the broccoli was perfection. The lavosh was solid to start. The fish tacos were good. The clear winner of the night was the Fire Island sandwich. It was freaking good and I will be back for it. Hopefully there will be other people there as well.
