1st & Main

Reviewed By Maria S

We recently had a dinner there with a group of friends. They have a wide enough selection but it trends towards sandwiches, pizza, etc. I had a burger which featured onion rings which were huge and stacked high on the burger. They also served the burger with catsup which was not listed as included which ruined the burger for me. Another person in our group ordered the same burger and could not eat the onion rings, they were dipped in sweet coating and were not crispy. The acoustics are so bad it was nearly impossible to visit except with the person sitting right beside one.

Ordered the loaded tots and trio meal. 2 of us shared the two and was the perfect amount of food. The seasonal specialty drinks were great. Watermelon margarita and strawberry lemonade. Sat on the patio and the view is amazing! Only a 4 because had to get up and grab a bbq sauce from an empty table because the sever left before noticing we didnt have one. Server was nice but not thrilled to be there.

Pepper Sprout

Reviewed By R_bison

Incredibly on the Saturday night before Mother’s Day, the kitchen didn’t open until 30 minutes after we’d been seated. Dinner here took 2.5 hours although we ordered only one course. While we waited the first half hour, a group of staff were standing in a clump at the back joking with each other. The chef walked out to our table at one point with food but did not apologize. The food was good, as would be reasonably expected given the bill of about $100 for four entrees. The server also kept us waiting to pay the bill. Although I had my credit card in hand for about ten minutes she took another ten minutes to return it.

Caroline's Restaurant

Reviewed By MLH828

Usually I really enjoy breakfast at Caroline’s. While I miss items from their previous menu (like frittata with quest sauce), I find new dishes to try. Today’s vegetable quiche was disappointing. The problem was that it was over baked. The crust was tough and too thick, I had to use a knife to cut it. The top of the quiche was the color of a brownie, not a golden brown like it should be. It was tough and chewy. The interior of the quiche was dry. It could have used cheese. I think the item is overpriced as well.

Wow - we're already thinking about when we can come back to Brazen! Restaurant is stunning, the bar is spacious and the service was friendly and professional. The food is amazing as well so foodies out there, don't miss the opportunity to snag a reservation. We were impressed with the duck tacos but the eggplant appetizer (recommended by the bartender) was a show stopper - don't overlook the eggplant. The beef shoulder entree was delicious as well. The chef is truly talented and he took the time to check in with guests in the dining area, which is always a nice touch!

We all had the Prime Rib. Very tasty and done just right. Our waiter was also great. However, when the bill came, management decided to add 2 1/2% service charge for using a credit card. I have never experienced a credit card charge on a dinner bill in my life. In my opinion, this is so cheapskate it's beyond belief. Stay away until they remove the charge.
