We came on a Sunday before dinner and it was nice and quiet. The food was delicious, the service was friendly and quick. I would come back if I'm ever in town again. My partners only complaint was that the bun on her chicken sandwich was a bit soggy. Only one minor issue in an otherwise great experience. Oh, the garlic beans and the truffle fries were dynamite!!

My date and I had an amazing meal here. Our server was impeccable, and I really wish I asked for his name so I could brag on him! He is a young man with dark hair probably in his 20s who’s also a great bartender. I seriously think it may have been the best cocktail I’ve ever had (the ‘Watermelon Sugar’ off the seasonal specials menu).

I got the maple salmon and ohhh my goodness was it great. As my 2 sides I got brocolli and Mac & cheese per the server’s recommendation. The truffle fries we got as a starter. Everything was delicious. I can’t stress how great of a time we had here.

Mistakes are inevitable! What stuck out to us is how they handled this: Someone accidentally put onions on my date’s burger, who called attention to it, but didn’t make a fuss - he just scraped off the onions and still very much enjoyed the fantastic burger. Both our server AND the chef came out and apologized very politely. Not only that, but they sent us this *awesome* chocolate moose pudding type desert without us asking for any kind of compensation.

The staff really went above and beyond to make sure we had a nice experience, and that was very much appreciated! Will definitely be back!

The food was pretty good, but it was horrible service. At one point, when I was without a drink, I seen my unattentive waitress go across the street. We were literally the only customers in the restaurant. I finally had to ask the bartender to go find my waitress. Horrible service.

The atmosphere is the best part of this place, but they need to fix that ugly kitchen service door in the lobby. It’s not a Waffle House, and it detracts from the overall experience. Everything from drinks, appetizers, and entrees was overpriced for what you get. For example, $10 for truffle fries without any sauce is outrageous. On the positive side, the fried green tomatoes were delicious. However, my $16 French dip was a huge disappointment. It was very light on meat and served dry without any mayo. Jason’s Deli has a much better French dip at a lower price. My wife’s Caesar salad was really tasty, though. I’ll give this place another chance before I swear it off for good.

Just returning the favor of one of your staff members. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. ✊ ✌️
Steep prices and Dusty Slay was right about this place. Cool you have great cocktail options and that’s where the line is drawn.

Had the worst service in a long time. Justin was our server. From the moment he brought us our drinks to the delivery of our check we said "Thank you" for everything he did. He never once said a simple "you're welcome "! We tried joking with him and nothing. No interaction / No personality. While he went through the motions and provided us with our drinks and meals. Slow service. He had no personality. Second time eating here and the last. BTW, his tip reflected his service! I'm an ex bartender and we tip extremely well.

First time at The Local! Let me just say the truffle fries are amazing!! Our waitress was nice and attentive. 5/5! Will be coming back.

A very disappointing experience, both my daughter and I had the French dip sandwich. The meat was dry and tasteless. Worst French dip ever. The service was basically non-existent. The waitress brought our food, never checking on us again. There were 7 in our party and no drink refills offered to any of us. There was an 18 percent gratituituy added. That would have been fine if we had received adequate service. I will add that the restaurant only has two or three tables that were occupied. I reported the poor food quality to the waitress and hostess. They both shrugged their shoulders and laughed. Horrible dining experience!!
