The Local is a restaurant that offers a unique experience with its Queens-inspired interior decor, featuring custom subway signs and chalkboards showcasing the beer list. The menu is constantly changing, offering a variety of options to choose from. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful, providing excellent service and recommendations. Customers can tell the staff their preference and let them recommend a beer, which they have always gotten right. The Cuban stuffed pretzel and French dip sandwich are standout dishes, with flavorful meat, perfect ratios, and delicious bread. The Old Bay fries are a great side dish, and their sauces, including roasted garlic and chipotle aioli, are highly recommended. The California Benedict is a must-try for brunch.
The Local is a welcoming restaurant with great food and service, making it a perfect spot for any occasion. Customers have praised the excellent steak salad, with the steak cooked to perfection and the candied bacon adding a great touch. The staff, especially Haley, have been described as amazing and going above and beyond. While the place may feel a bit sterile, it is considered the best watering hole closest to the train station, with a very good selection of regional and local beers on tap, including an excellent Guinness. The bistro and pub food served at The Local is also highly praised.
