The initial experience was really good. We had booked for a booth, one wasn’t available so we sat at the bar. The whiskey menu is amazing. I ordered the Kentucky tour flight of bourbon, and my wife ordered the mimosa flight. The bartenders were efficient and very polite. So our experience at the bar whilst waiting was quite pleasant. The booth was taking too long so we decided to sit at a standard table. Things started to downhill from here. The restaurant wasn’t too busy, had a host, 3 servers and two bartenders on the floor, and I counted 5 tables that were sitting when we were seated, two of which, including us were just seated. Our server, who seemed to have us and another table, wasn’t what I would say rushed off her feet, but the manner in which we were served seemed as though she was too busy to wait too long for an order, even though we had already decided at the bar. We ordered the fish and chips and a chicken kale Caesar salad. Both dishes were good. I wanted to order a drink but hadn’t decided, so she too the food order and we saw her again when the food arrived so I ordered my drink then. Came shortly after. She was seen again to ask how everything was after my wife had finished her food and I was 3/4 done. Not to go on, the food and drinks are good, and if you want good service,...

We sat at the bar and were immediately impressed by their Whiskey selection and the low prices for such high quality stuff. Our bartender/server Brianna was pleasant, quick, and helpful. I had trouble deciding between the bison burger and the Napa chicken sandwich, but eventually got the bison and my friend got the chicken. The bison burger was delicious! I was worried the jalapeño jam and caramelized onions were going to make it too sweet, but they only added a hint of sweetness to soften the spicy jalapeños and savory meat and cheese. Meat was cooked perfectly to my medium rare request. I upgraded fries to cheese truffle fries, which were tasty, but I didn't see much cheese until I packed half of them away and realized most of the cheese had sunk under the fries. My friend said his Napa chicken was very tasty. I asked him about the ciabatta bun, because I usually find them to be way too hard and scratch the roof of my mouth, but he said it was perfect and had the consistency of a lightly toasted English muffin. I may have to go back and order that next time! Their beer selection was excellent as well. I had a Pliny the elder with my meal and a Whistlepig 10 year rye to sip on for dessert. Over all, I would definitely recommend this place to anyone...
