Reviews
"This place used to be amazing. I looked forward to visiting to watch games. The atmosphere was friendly and the servers/bartenders were great. In the past 5 years it has taken a steady decline. They now do not have servers. They have a quick service window that took 30 minutes or more to get food. The draft beer I ordered tasted weird. I’m not sure why they changed their business/service model, but it is definitely not the same place it was 5 years ago. Oh and now they charge an automatic gratuity of 18%."
"A poorly ran place. Took 30 mins to get food and they tell me they are out of broccoli and would you like something else? Request a salad and said they would buzz me. Waiting ten minutes before going and asking for the salad myself since it shouldn’t have taken over 1 minute to replace a side you don’t have. Also, ordered a grilled cheese and the cheese wasn’t even melted. Who messes up a grilled cheese?"
"Stopped by here on game day and it was packed. We were hungry and new they had food so we figured we’d get a bite and a drink before heading over to the stadium. Waited online and when we finally got to the front there was a $10 cover. I wasn’t going to argue but I did notice it was selective cover and the girls in front of us didn’t pay. It was wall to wall people. Ordered from the food truck and the burgers were great. Seating was limited and the line to get a drink at the bar was 5 deep. We ate our food and left. Moral of this story… it’s a fun place to watch the game…but don’t bother if you plan on going to the game."
"Menu is too large, they take forever to get food prepared. On big game days they should reduce the menu so the kitchen can keep up. Drinks are good but bars need more help. Atmosphere is just right."
"Title: Delicious Food, But Beware of In-House Dining Fee Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ I recently visited the social with my son and wife, and overall, we had a satisfying dining experience. The highlight of our meal was undoubtedly the mouthwatering Tender Mountain with Swamp Sauce. The flavors were fantastic, and the portion size was quite generous, leaving us feeling satisfied and content. My wife opted for the Buffalo Mac and Cheese Bowl, which she said was ok, but was a much smaller portion for nearly the same price. The food quality was commendable. The flavors were well-balanced, and the dishes were prepared with care and attention to detail. However, my enthusiasm dampened when I realized the in-house dining fee. Paying over $7 just to dine within the restaurant seemed exorbitant and left a sour taste in my mouth. This unexpected cost was disappointing and took away from an otherwise enjoyable experience. It's important for restaurants to be transparent about additional charges, as it can significantly impact a customer's perception. While the food deserves praise, I must admit that the in-house dining fee has made me hesitant about returning. It's disheartening when a hidden charge leaves you questioning the value of the overall dining experience. I hope the management takes into consideration the impact such fees can have on customer satisfaction. Without this fee I would recommend the social to others solely for the delicious food and impressive flavors. However, I would advise potential diners to be aware of the additional cost associated with dining in-house. If you're not bothered by such fees, then this restaurant might still be worth a visit for its delectable offerings."
