Last two time we’ve been there, they-had issues with serving people in a timely manner

The Local is a sports bar featuring 11 TVs and a menu that serves delicious food. Dishes include perfectly prepared clams in white wine and garlic, and a chicken pasta with wide noodles and a light wine sauce with mushrooms. Recent reviews have highlighted their shrimp tacos, which are excellent, and the chicken n waffles, described as absolutely perfect. The BBQ plate special was noted, with good ribs but a bit heavy on the salt, while the cornbread was praised as the best ever. The service is generally attentive and friendly, with staff like Melissa providing great energy and helpful recommendations. The vibe is laid-back and informal, making it a nice spot for a relaxed meal. Although it’s small and parking can be limited, visitors appreciate the overall experience. The Local remains a popular choice for those seeking an enjoyable and slightly upscale dining experience.
