“I have gluten tolerance issues, and was so excited that they have fresh sourdough bread here! I ordered a sandwich and fries, and it was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. I highly recommend! I don't live in the area, but I will be stopping here every chance I can!“

“I've been twice now and it was amazing both times! Everything from the time you sit down to walking out to a 10!! Food, wine and tea are all unique and extraordinary!! You won't find any of this anywhere else and that's hard to say in the restaurant business. Having owned a restaurant myself, I'm very picky about everything and they are on point everywhere you look. From the decor to staff to the food/drinks themselves the experience is outstanding!!“

“Ok I have been meaning to try this spot for awhile and today the wife and I finally tried it. The wife had the hot mess which was in a nutshell eggs benedict, with bacon wrapped meatloaf and their house sauce. I tasted it and it was the bomb! I had the cavatelli noodles with house made Italian sausage and a a garlic sauce. Can't wait to go back and try another dish! Tables were clean, staff professional, great atmosphere, conveniently located, clean bathrooms.“

“Ate here about a year ago and forgot to review. The food here was amazing. Delicious BBQ that basically melts in your mouth. We went on a Saturday around 11am and it wasn't too busy. I dont think we waited at all for a table.

I personally recommend the brisket. Mine was juicy, flavorful, and overall delicious.

The noise is moderate due to the main road running through old town right outside. Still very manageable.

Service was also great, the waitress was friendly and always checked up on us.“

“We are regulars here, first time sitting at the bar for dinner. Delicious food as always. Our bartender was AMAZING, she took our order served us delicious drinks (we had 3 each) made small talk w/us. She was so on top of her game despite being so busy behind the bar. We love this place and will continue to come back“

“The food is artfully served and delicious. The specials are excellent. The staff is knowledge, attentive and friendly. Good wine list, full bar, Happy Hour offers nice discounts.“

“I hate to just give out five stars Willie Nelly, but the place is called burgers and beers. They serve burgers and they serve beer and they did it really well. Our server was super friendly. The guy who ran our food was nice we weren’t rushed everyone knew what they were talking about. They were very professional and the food was really good. I had a burger with a fried egg on top, lettuce, tomato, onion, and mayo. We actually had wings here too just to see what they were like being from Buffalo myself. They actually weren’t bad now don’t get me wrong. They were not buffalo wings, but they did well.“

“Attended NYE was great to spend there hope to come again asap!“

“Great venue we meet here now for our referral group“

“GREAT atmosphere!!! the staff is always welcoming, friendly, and helpful about any drink questions!! They make the best White Russian in the universe!!! 😍😍“

“We absolutely love love love coming here! We make the 30 minute drive about once a week and it never disappoints! The food is amazing, the staff is epic and one of the best parts about Finch is the bartender Brent! He’s like family and we go just to feel like home! We love this place and will tell everyone about it! Thank you Finch for being so cool inside, having amazing food and staff that feels like family!“

“Kind staff, clean restaurant, great food, and family owned. Only tried two their fish tacos on their Wednesday special, and their birria consume, came out to $8 and some change. Both were full of flavor and filling for the price. 2026, fish taco Wednesday 1.99 each.“

“I really wanted to like this place, because the food was really good. A girlfriend of mine and my 9 year old son visited here on Tuesday around 4pm. We walked in, we're immediately greeted and sat in a comfy booth, noticing the very unique artwork and decor. Pros: The Cadillac Margaritas on the rocks were very good. Ordered to start the guacamole and chips, was very tasty. We shared the Main Lobster Puerto Nuevo Style, the cook level was on point, and the seasonings were delicious. Now we were told it's 2 lbs of meat, which was definitely not the case. The cost for how much meat, I would say, is not worth the price at $95 an order. My son had grilled chicken tacos that he said were good. And we all appreciated the little churro ice cream dessert I received for a special birthday surprise. Cons: On a 1-10 level of volume, the music was at a 9, for 4pm on a Tuesday, it felt like they were trying to turn the place into a dayclub. Just seemed unnecessary to have it that loud. We could barely hear each other across the table. After sitting a while listening to the music, I would absolutely never bring my son back here. A couple of songs passed as we sat, where every other word was N$gg@#, F@$k, or other explicit words. Some may not agree, but I'm only 38 and find that highly inappropriate for a restaurant. Now, if that's the ambiance you want to have in your restaurant, no argument, however, then make it a 18 and up place or post something stating children may not be the best audience for your restaurant. We even made a comment to our waiter, and he just smiled and said, "Ya, there's a lot of songs like that we play!" and walked off. Our service was definitely less than stellar with him, let me tell you. As we walked in, we stated it was our first time. Anytime we asked a question, before we could finish our question, we were cut off and met with a very dismissive, hasty response as he would be walking away as well. It felt as if we were offending him or he just had more important things to do. Their menu is very confusing, as we were trying to figure out the taco pricing (since it was Taco Tuesday). The service from our waiter, I would say, was a 1 of 10. He was not friendly (even though he smiled) his demeanor was uninviting and sometimes condescending. In the end, thankfully, we had another young lady who was taking care of us. She was very sweet and pleasant as we commented on our concerns she stated she would let the manager know. In understanding, it's not her fault, we would've told our waiter. However, he disappeared after we received our food. All in all, this place has good food, but it is not good enough for us to spend almost $200 for horrible and condescending service.“

“Awesome customer service the food was great. The drinks were great to Highly recommend people going there.“

“Very great service, Alfredo the manager is one of a kind. Congratulations to the whole team!!!! 😃😃😃“

“The food is absolutely fantastic, the cocktails are simply amazing, and the live music really ties it all together for an unforgettable experience.“
