I was in from out of town and decided to try Ale N Angus due to the great reviews. My wife was having a procedurey done at an area clinic and so I decided to take my 1 yo on a daddy daughter date. When I arrived with my hands full and my little one they sprung into action immediately grabbing me a high chair and offering her crayons and paper. I didn’t get his name but my waiter was beyond awesome he was so attentive and understanding that I had my hands full(literally and figuratively) and was very nice and helpful. He went above and beyond to make our stay great.
My wife and I have been doing keto so I had to stick to a salad. It was such a hard decision as I am huge burger fan and have been dying to try their burger since they won best burger last year but I promised my wife I would stick to my diet…. I decided on a hot chicken ceaser that they had as a special and it was AMAZING. My daughter was content with her snacks (too young for one of there excellent burgers) however my wife had to fast for 12 hours for procedure so I knew she would be starving so I figured she could break her keto for the day and I ordered her the Power play burger. As I scarfed down my salad my daughter enjoyed her crayons and we had a wonderful lunch. Once i was done, my wife’s burger arrived at perfect time. I bundled my daughter up with my hands full again with her diaper bag and baby in tote I left to go back to pick up my wife. I parked down the block so it was a little trek. When I got to my car I heard someone shouting sir. It was my waiter running after me to bring me my daughter’s coloring book I forgot.
When I picked up my wife she was still receiving from the anesthesia but was very hungy. When she open the container she couldn’t believe her eyes. The burger looked amazing. She was so happy and scarfed it down so quickly. She even let me get a little bite and it was by far the best burger I’ve ever had. So juicy and flavorful. I pray I will be able to get back to cuse soon so I can maybe cheat on my keto and try one of these burgers.
Ale n Angus gets 5+ stars not only for delicious food but service that was well over the top. I wish I got my waiters name to give him a proper shout out but I thank him so much for helping a slightly overwhelmed dad’s day a bit easier and providing...
Read moreAle 'n' Angus Pub does live up to the hype! It's a chill space, packed wall to wall with people enjoying their meals. I was impressed with how relatively quiet it still was even with a packed house and I attribute this to not having loud music playing for everyone to compete with.
We were seated promptly and met our server shortly after. The server asked if we wanted wings out first and we did! They came out quickly and shortly after finishing the wings it was only a few minutes and our meals followed.
The taste, I came for the burgers and loved my Hot and Smokey, but the Citrus Chipotle Wings won my heart. They were made to perfection and it was a sauce combination I've never tried and if I ever see it again I won't say no! I also added the onion rings to my meal and they were fantastic as well. My wife got a salad and it was fresh, large and satisfying, she was very happy with her meal as well.
The only disappointment came when we appeared to be abandoned at our table. Our server became or simply just is the bartender and another server who was walking by was taking our finished dishes. We waited for the check for awhile because it's a busy place but unfortunately it wasn't until we flagged down the lovely server who was cleaning up after us that we got our bill. She took payment immediately from us as we could tell she knew what was going on and we also saw her being a super hero out there so a huge shout out to that lovely woman!
In conclusion, great food, great setting, kind staff, and you may need to be assertive to get your bill. An easy recommendation and we look forward to trying so much more...
Read moreThese yearly, New York best-tasting burger awards are no joke and National runner-up finishes truly are deserved.
You can never judge a book by its cover, right? Well, we found this place in downtown Syracuse while we were traveling there on a business trip. The decor was a bit dated but everything that mattered was delicious and super sensational. There are not adjectives to describe how awesome the burgers were. They we're definitely hand patted in-house with the right bun and the right accoutrement. I don't often refer to food in this way but it was like burger meat candy. Really, really good.
Everyone loved what they had; four specialty Burgers plus a chicken sandwich special, and they were quite attentive and took care of my kids which many times doesn't happen because people are put off by bigger families.
I had the Beef on Weck Burger which takes beef on weck to a new level. Plus, the kind of Cranberry mayo sauce for the sweet potato fries was addictive. Yum.
All of the beer was from New York microbreweries, craft breweries and that topped off the entire meal.
The owners were pleasant and available everywhere, running front and back of the house; and they were available and always inquiring about how you were doing. Matt was a great guy and enjoyed meeting him.
We hope to be back one day. Definitely on our list of Juicy and flavorful...
