| - Had Cowbell today after hearing good things about it through coworkers and on Yelp. We were a group of four with no reservations and were accommodated within 15 minutes of arrival, around 7:45pm on a weekday.
They have a vast menu full of burgers and tacos, along with a nice selection of appetizers, salads, spiked milkshakes, and desserts.
Service was quick and everyone was friendly, especially the hostess!
Sweet tea! Oh how long it's been since I've had legitimate Southern sweet tea. So good.
For starts, our table got the fried pickles and the "Sinatra". The fried pickles came with ranch sauce and were delicious, though I feel like the pickles were a bit too thin. The batter was good - not too thick and very crispy. The "Sinatra" was a plate of glorified mozzarella sticks that were shaped like chicken fingers and graced with plenty of prosciutto and some red sauce. These were nowhere close to frozen mozz sticks - they got a collective "mmnm" from the table. I'm not a massive fan of cheese sticks, so I'll take their word for it.
I chose to have the PM Burger medium, which came with pulled pork, fried jalapenos, onions, and beer cheese. It's definitely a messy burger that I basically ate with a fork and knife and skipped the bun, which I wasn't too much of a fan of. The beef patty was not as seasoned as I'd like, but the burger as a whole was decent. It had some flavor from the pulled pork and the beer cheese, but the kick was just not enough for me. I would have liked more jalapenos. The sweet potato tater tots were the star of the show tonight - a little sweet from the potato and from what seemed like a sweet cinnamon dust on the outside. The outer was crispy and the inside was the perfect texture. I hate when tater tots aren't soft inside and this was not the case. I would definitely recommend getting the sweet potato tots.
Decent spot for burgers in the Uptown area with a nice casual ambiance and good service.
