    Half the beer fridge!
    Katie N.

    Great selection!! I was very impressed and liked the ambiance. It was nice and spread out. We picked up 1 to drink there and 1 to drink at home. Can selection impressed me more than what they had on draft. I would return.

    What a great venue for casual drinks and bites. A group of us came here after bridal dress shopping, and it was the perfect place to celebrate with friends. They have quite the extensive beverage menu, great tacos, and a variety of seating areas perfect for groups or couples. Their ordering process is unique - you place orders on your phone, and they bring the food to your table. IPhones seemed to have more problems with this process than androids, but their service was fast and friendly.

    Such a great concept. A bottle shop, bar, indoor and outdoor restaurant. We sat outside in the back. There is a QR code at each table, you order your drinks and food, and a server brings them to you . Our server did explain the entire process to us. You can order various sizes of drinks, even a 1 ounce. We also ordered food, a Rueben sandwich and tacos ( corned beef, carne asada and shrimp) The food was very good! The corned beef was prepared so well. They have a large selection of drinks and hundreds of beers to purchase. You can purchase a single can/bottle for onsite consumption. ALl of the servers we encountered were super nice and informative. Highly recommend.

    Such a great bottle shop that opened! Their tap-list is tremendous with a well-curated, high-quality variety of beers, seltzers, and ciders. They had beers on taps from well-known breweries not commonly seen on draft around here, so that was such a treat. I met Tom, Jay, and Felicia who were all friendly and great to talk too. There's a huge refrigerated section for there or to-go and I'm excited to come back to try their food! The place looks very elegant, smells woodsy, and a wonderful place to stop by.

    Our second visit here. The service was fine. Nothing to complain about at all and still cute inside, especially for fall The chicken tacos were very dry. Not very good and the quesadilla was just lettuce no cheese. It was very yucky and not good at all. They were very busy and it was hard to track Anyone down. This visit was quite disappointing. Not sure if we'll be back. It left such a bad taste in our mouth. It's sad to say that Taco Bell would've tasted better than this

    Came to Bottle Theory on the 2nd day they were open. You would think they've been open for years! Great service. Amazing beer choices. Great food.

No complaints about parking or the walk. Boom, we were there. Now, where it gets interesting. You walk in the building's front door, and it opens up to a room where you can access several businesses. Josephine's is straight to the back. It's very dark, smelly, and loud. This totally reminded me of a dive bar on a college campus (maybe worse?). There's not much seating, especially when it gets crowded. The bar has limited seating, and the seating on the floor is even more limited. The chairs and couch are stained with who knows what. The song books for karaoke are sticky and nasty. From a great perspective, I was sitting in a chair and went to move and felt something poke me. It was a pair of random scissors! The drinks are 2/5 and prices are extremely expensive. I had a root beer float martini, and it was "meh". From a karaoke standpoint, it was decent. Lots of different people singing. Some good, some bad. It was entertaining, and some people were pretty brave, haha. Try this place if you dare. Get here early to get a seat. I don't think I'd come back. Once is enough.

    Lunch Review! I've loved coming to Lucia Rose for dinner…read morebut recently visited for lunch. Their standard menu is still offered as well as lunch sandwiches and a prefix menu! What a great idea for $23 to get a singular portion of an antipasta, salad, and smaller entree. I got the meatball, baby gem caesar, and spicy rigatoni pasta. I came hungry and left with leftovers. The caesar salad and pasta were amazing! The meatball was good but ricotta was served room temp where meatball was served hot. My friend and I agreed the temp difference was off. She got the meatball, roasted beet salad, and chicken parm sandwich. The beet salad wasn't her favorite as the arugula kept getting stuck in her teeth. The chicken parm sandwich had great flavor and was a large portion! I love this idea of a prefix menu for a fun lunch out. Highly recommend dinner OR lunch at Lucia Rose as you won't be disappointed.

Love the ambiance, Kathy was great as our server it was that the pizza just wasn't on par with what I've had in the past. I ordered the pistachio pizza, my friend ordered the Margarita. I wanted her to try the pistachio as it always had the ability to roll my eyes with every bite. I was shocked when she said it was just ok. She was right! The pistachio cream didn't have the same taste, actually it had no taste. The cheese wasn't melted, but formed hard ribbons on top, and there was so much sausage the taste was just sausage and salt. Even had my husband taste it when I brought some home and he agreed. No eye roll. My friends margarita was equally as disappointing. The cheese wasn't melted, the middle was soft and sat in a puddle of tomato water when you opened it up. We were planning on meeting back again for dinner with our partners, but both agreed we're going to find someplace else.

He added that it's not uncommon for regulars to visit a local restaurant and just bring their food with them to enjoy their wine. There's also a selection of craft beers and spirits to choose from.

Bonus that there was some sports ball to watch. Double bonus that they had live music (which was amazing!) as well. The brewery itself is beautiful, with multiple TVs, a spectacular upper level and just a great ambiance. The beers here are excellent and there is a wide variety to choose from. In addition to that, they have a full bar and their speciality drinks should definitely be looked at. We didn't eat a lot, but did get some snacks and everything was delicious. The best was the service. Really awesome staff all the way around. If you're around, you need to go here!

It's a good burger. Nothing remarkable, but it did the trick. The fries were good. Avoid the pretzel bites. $13.99 for burned and flavorless chunks. A total disaster. Similarly, skip the Pit Stop Potatoes ($13.99). The potatoes have no seasoning and the melted cheese immediately falls off when you touch it with a fork. Just a greasy mistake. I may give 93 Octane another shot, but I'd need a lunch special or something to bring the price more in line with the quality.
