It's true what they say: you have to ask the locals if you want to find a truly scrumptious meal! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was absolutely stunning. The restaurant is elegant, refined, and beautifully designed, creating the perfect setting for a memorable evening. Our server, LeNarus, provided impeccable service throughout the meal. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and made excellent recommendations that elevated the entire experience. The food was outstanding. Every dish was beautifully presented and packed with flavor. My favorites were the fried green tomatoes, the tomato basil bruschetta, the whipped formaggio, and the lemon miso salmon, which was cooked to perfection. Everything was thoughtfully prepared and paired perfectly. The Hugo cocktails were also exceptional: refreshing, well-balanced, and the perfect complement to the meal. I honestly wish I could come here every day! If you're looking for outstanding food, exceptional service, and a sophisticated atmosphere, this restaurant is an absolute must-visit. Highly recommended!

There were a couple of Apps ordered for the table and both were very good. We had the Whipper Formaggio and the Spicy Shrimp Crunch. Really liked the shrimp, but I didn't find it spicy at all. There were a number of good options for the main. A number of people got the Lemon Miso Salmon and everyone thought it was good. I was leaning to the Braised Short Ribs but pivoted to the Roasted Pappardelle Pasta. The fresh pasta was excellent. The tomato cream sauce worked great with the shrimp and chorizo. This was a very cool place and there is little doubt that I will return.

The burger was ordered and cooked medium. The fries were hot and crispy outside and soft inside. Shrimp and grits - I didn't taste but my guest enjoyed the dish. They said they'd order the dish again. Shore leave - a great cocktail. A great pour that was well balanced. I only wished for a bit more foam. My guest just moved here and said they'd add 5 Church to their lost of "go-tos" based off that first experience. The server was awesome (shame on me for forgetting his name). Parking is validated for 1.5hrs during lunch and 3hrs for dinner.

The happy hour prices for the fries are $7 for a relatively small portion and the lamb sliders are $12. The lamb sliders were dry, small, and overall not a good happy hour deal. I'm allergic to shellfish but some of their other seafood appetizers looked like they might be better. The area is nice though, colony square has good restaurants and nice offices nearby. Overall: not a great happy hour deal, food was eh but location is great and no complaints about service.

So I made my way to the hotel where my staff was staying, and we were seated at the restaurant inside. I flipped over the menu and saw "Hartley Kitchen & Cocktails." I was instantly excited.

I can't say I had a favorite starter or side because they are all full of flavor and cooked perfectly. They made my in-laws evening one to remember with the anniversary stamp on the menu, the coaster and even going the extra mile to celebrate (17) the year of furniture with cute chairs made from champagne top. THANK YOU TO EVERYONE that made the evening special!! We'll be back very soon.

It was fairly easy to make a reservation on Open Table but they also had seats available when I arrived. The first night I sat at a table by the oyster bar. The second night I sat at the bar in the main dining room and has great experiences both times. Despite it getting busy and full after I arrived, service was quick and attentive. The dining room is large so it can get pretty loud when it's busy. They have lot of seafood options to choose from so I sampled a few different items each time. It is definitely on my list of places to return to when I'm back in town. P.S They also have a small 3 hole mini golf outside to enjoy m.

My girlfriend came for pizza. I believe she had a Margarita pizza maybe "beam me up Scotty" I'm not sure. I came for what I remembered to be seven lamps's old burger. Or at least something similar. My burger came with a Caesar salad which I love. I also enjoyed an old-fashioned. Our server was lovely and informative. However, my old-fashioned was yummy, but on the sweeter side. Next time, and I think there will be a next time, I will ask if they can make it less sweet. Also, the cherry was completely wrong. At least it wasn't good. I take my cherries very seriously in my old-fashioned. My burger was good and the Caesar salad was delicious. However, it just didn't hit the way that I had hoped. The restaurant was also out of Tabasco. They gave me a buffalo sauce which in my opinion was gross. I hope this restaurant finds its bold audacious way of telling the neighborhood who they are and what they offer. I feel like they're trying to figure out what the neighborhood wants. I'll give it a few months and come back. I work in the area. I was Just disappointed by the lack of WOW.

On a cold afternoon, I finally decided to give it a shot, and I'm glad I did. I ordered the 50/50 burger and a Caesar salad. The burger is essentially a smash-style setup with onions, bacon, two patties, and cheese. I was genuinely impressed. I didn't put it down once I started. After that, we shared an 8-inch Margherita pizza, which was the perfect size to split without feeling overstuffed. I washed it all down with their house-made lemonade, which was so good a refill felt mandatory. The service was friendly and quick. The dimly lit dining room sets a cozy tone, yet you can still catch the game on one of the many TVs. Everything felt organized and well run. I'll definitely be back. .
