This place is an absolute gimmick. I had one beer, 2 of the tap to drink things didn’t even work, and when I had one working, it was completely full of foam and basically had half a beer and spent 11.08 on it. Wild, if you are a beer drinker this place isn’t for you, if you like to spend extra money on beer then perfect. Any beer that overflows because of terrible keg carbonation your being charged for it. Food was good but it’s a rip off to buy the beer.

We ordered the beet salad which was excellent. Also ordered the crab cake sandwich which needed some more crab. The service and atmosphere were

Passed by on the street, stepped in to check out the menu, figured why not. A realatively new place in Bordentown, has nice curb appeal, interesting menu and drink serving (will come back to this) scenario that is unique to the NJ region. Server, Monica was prompt to greet us and get us started but we needed time to acclimate and undersand how the menu worked, and think through our meal as we like to share courses as opposed to a singluar entree and we don't eat large portions. More about quality of food and memoral flavors. So, once we got that understanding we started with an appetizer of PEI Mussels in conconut curry, a very nice size for sharing and nice flavor profile as our go to is fra diavlo sauce with a kick. Love thai so this was a nice diversion that we enjoyed. Next my wife wanted to try a burger dish (I do not eat burgers), she got the french dip burger, NO bun and substituated for sweet potato fries. Sounds good right, salivating maybe... had a nice plate presentation but didn't deliver. The burger was just a step larger then a traditional fast food restauarnt and have not flavor (I did taste a bite). The waffle sweet potato fries while again looked awesome on the plate, overcooked, dry, no real taste of sweet potato in the fry. Have had much much better elsewhere. I saw a servier giving another table a melted marshmellow side to dip their sweet potato fries into.... odd but I guess maybe a Jersey thing? My wife inquired and was told not offered with sides but only with the larger portion. Saved us the extra calories. I ordered the strawberry & spinach salad with ahi tuna. A lovely plating presentation, certainly a large protion. My only criticism was the ahi tuna was over seared, hence overcooked, should have been more pink. About the beverage scenario, kudos to a place that is making wine and beer drinking fun by having a wall of taps. You give your credit card/debit card and get a card that you tap the tap wall with to make your selection and pour your self. Its a big money maker for them. I've spent a lot of time in NYC at a Belgium beer cafe bar by my office, where I learned about the proper vessels and pours for different beers. It does make a difference. Here, 1 type of glass, tilt and pour. No sampling, you pay for your sample. Basically pay by the pour now matter how little (a taste) verse full glass. My bill was $100 for a meal that maybe should hav been $70 or so? 1 app, 1 burger dish, my salad with tuni, 1 glass win and 2 beers with 2 quick pour tastes. I'm not cheap, we eat at nice places, we want a nice meal after cooking 5 nights a week. But there is also a value for what you get. Hence why I feel a 3 star is a fair review. You'll see over my 8 year history on Yelp that I lean more to 4s and hover at 5s often. But that's because I follow other Yelpers who I respect and share common food interests with. Have fun, enjoy yourself this place will do well. Others to explore.

Great place! When you walk in, you feel like you're instantly transported into a restaurant in NYC. Atmosphere and decor is on point. The Truffle Mushroom Bruschetta, Fried Cheese Curds and Go-Gho Cauliflower appetizers were amazing! And the Shrimp n' Grits dinner was so good!

A great meal! We shared several appetizers, entrees and desserts. Everything was delicious and we had some leftovers to take home for the next day. My wife especially loved the scallops. The self serve beer wall was a highlight! Some very unique and delicious beers.

We went down to try this place as it had recently opened. We were promptly greeted and decided to eat inside (they do have outdoor seating for when the weather is nice) the atmosphere in the place was enjoyable and not too loud for 4 in the afternoon. The place did start to fill up as we were leaving but while we were there it wasn't loud at all. It looks very nice on the inside as well. I ordered some of their New England Clam Chowder, the Fish & Chips, and then the Blueberry Cobbler for dessert. The clam chowder was delicious, even though it was a bit more on the runnier side than I've enjoyed for a clam chowder. The fish & chips were some of the best I've ever had; full of flavor, with choice of cocktail or tartar sauce. Now the Blueberry cobbler.....100 stars out of 10! It came out nice and warm with a nice scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. It was very fresh and the perfect cap on a pleasurable meal.

Had the shamrock ☘️ burger. It was amazing. When I say the world's best burger I mean it. The wings were really great too.On a side note they have a very cool one of a kind beer tap wall. Try the coffee infused stout.

LOVE THIS PLACE!! 10 STARS FROM BEGINNING TO END! MIKAYLA WHERE DID YOU COME FROM? OUR SERVICE WAS THE BEST WE HAVE RECEIVED IN ANY RESTAURANT IN MONTHS! ALWAYS CHECKING OUR TABLE, DRINKS BROUGHT TO US PROMPTLY. FOOD DELIVERED TIMELY AND HOT! THE SHORT RIB TACOS WERE OUTSTANDING! SO TASTY AND FRESH. THE FRIES WERE SO CRISPY AND HAD SEA SALT ON THEM SO IT MAKES THEM SOOOOOO GOOD! BRUSSEL SPROUTS! FINALLY A RESTAURANT WHO KNOWS HOW TO MAKE THEM CRISPY BUT NOT BURNT! LOVED THEM! MY FRIEND SHARON HAD THE SALAD IN A MASON JAR WHICH WAS SO GOOD AND FRESH SHE DIDN'T NEED DRESSING! HOWEVER, THE NICE BALSAMIC THAT CAME WITH IT ON THE SIDE WAS DELICIOUS AND NOT OVERLY TANGY AS IN OTHER RESTAURANTS, IN HOUSE MADE! THE DRINKS WERE DELICIOUS. LEMONDROP MARTINI AND COSMO WAS HOW WE ORDERED IT. WE ARE PARTICULAR ABOUT OUR COCKTAILS! THE MANAGER EVEN CAME BY TO CHECK ON US. THE FOOD, THE SERVICE, THE AMBIANCE, JUST PERFECTION. WHAT I LIKE MOST ABOUT THE MENU? ITS NOT FILLED WITH JUNK AND IT'S WELL THOUGHT OUT. JUST ENOUGH TO MAKE EVERYONE HAPPY! GREAT APPETIZERS AND EVEN SOME VEGETARIAN AND GLUTEN FREE OPTIONS. I FOUND MY NEW FAVORITE PLACE! MIKAYLA, THANKYOU FOR THE AMAZING SERVICE WHEN WE DINED! YOU MADE OUR FIRST TIME EATING THERE MEMORABLE! WE WILL BE BACK!

Bordentown City has another winner on its hands. Food was excellent, wings crispy, the waffle fries with marshmallow dipping sauce, the sandwiches, the Mac & Cheese, the dessert, all A+A+A+ and our waiter Dan was outstanding. He made our first visit even better and we’ll def be coming back. And the pricing was super fair compared to other way overpriced places that we’ve been to recently. Another winner on Farnsworth!!!

OK. Our first time here. Food was fine, no complaints. Unfortunately, I was introduced, for the first time, to the "Beer Wall" concept. The waitress handed me a card and told me the beer was self serve. And indeed it was. You want a beer, you get up and walk to the taps and pour your own. Well, I'll admit, not a big fan of this technology. Other then cutting down on staff costs, I really see no benefit to customers who have to get up during their meal to pour their own beers. Maybe I'm missing something.
