I have been coming to local for years. When they first opened, I was in love with the place! I saw them as a south side restaurant that had fresh local food. Since then, my opinions have changed. Although I still do enjoy going to local, I see them more as a bar now. This place is packed on the weekends, expect a line out of the door on Fridays and Saturdays.
They are famous for their yinseritas, (if I am spelling that right) which is a margarita with a beer in it upside down. Super good! Their menu ranges from pizza, to wings to sandwiches. Everything I ever had to eat there was decently good, but I enjoyed their pizza the most.
Most recently, I visited with a friend for happy hour. Local has a pretty awesome happy hour...1/2 off drafts and some 1/2 priced appetizers. I ordered southern tier's creme brûlée , normally $7.50 and only $3.75 during happy hour! Sooo good!
We also ordered their nachos as an appetizer. The portion was HUGE! And they were awesome- pork, tons of cheese, pico and jalapeños with scallions to top it all off... Super good! I did fine the pork to be really salty though.
Our service was great and it always has been consistently good service every time I went. Local is definitely a good place to eat, not just a good place to drink in south side!
