| - Tuesdays are 2 for Tuesdays, and it is worth every penny. I'd heard about Hodge's from a friend, and so I decided to stop up for the Tuesday special. For $40, you get two entrees, an appetizer, and a bottle of wine. Obviously, it's not going to be the best wine you've ever had, but it was good enough for me. They also have plenty of other specials on other days of the week to entice any discount queens like myself.
Even without considering the price, the experience was an all around 4 stars. I didn't think that the food was the best I've ever had, but it was very tasty. The service was one of the most efficient and quickest experiences I've ever had. We were wined and dined in 20 minutes, tops. My water was constantly full, and the waiter kept stopping by to top off my glass of wine. It was an entirely effortless dinner; I didn't have to want or wait for anything.
We started with the goat cheese tart which was sub-par. It wasn't as crispy and fresh as I had anticipated. The crust had a stale, reheated taste. My boyfriend and I both ordered the c.a.b. braised beef which was the star of the show. The beef was so tender the entire structure fell apart when I poked it with my fork. We were incredibly full from the food and delicious corn bread, so we decided to skip dessert. I'm hoping I can come back sometime and eat the brownie sundae; it sounded fabulous. I will definitely be back to try some of their other entrees.
