We ended up sitting at the bar instead and our poor bartender was way too busy, while many of her colleagues were chatting, moving really slowly, etc. despite her asking them for help at least 4 times while we were there. Also, someone else helped us with our drinks, and he told us that they don't do samples of tap beers? I've never seen that before but that was incredibly lame, so we didn't get beer. The food was good, but it didn't blow us away. We enjoyed the gig pizza but it was super heavy, actually too much cheese and bedding to freshen it up. Cheese curds were super good ones, though the chimichurri way practically invisible in the aioli and needed much more. We'd give it another shot, but would be cautious in doing so.

I was driving through this time on my way to Chicago and stumbled upon Fork & Fable Crafthouse. Wow. Just wow. From the outside it was pretty unassuming and after walking through the outdoor seating area to go inside to the host stand, we opted to go back out and grab a table outside since it was beautiful. The inside of the restaurant looked a little like a sports bar from what I saw and the outdoor space was small, but had four nice tables with umbrellas. I wish I could remember our server's name because she was one of the managers for the front of house and was so friendly, knowledgeable about the menu, and attentive. These brussels sprouts were unlike any I have ever had. They were deliciously crispy, like I have had before, but these also came with grapes, candied pecans, whipped feta cheese topped with an olive oil and a hot maple drizzle. The Ahi tuna salad was pretty straightforward, but they elevated it with a seaweed salad on top of the greens and it came with a house made wasabi vinaigrette that packed such a delicious punch. My only regret was coming here for lunch on a road trip so I couldn't indulge on one of their craft cocktails because they sounded amazing. Before I left, I got to chat with the owners and they were great guys. It definitely reinforced the need to support local businesses like this that are doing it well. I appreciated the whole experience and I hope I get an opportunity to come back again soon.

They had some where's Waldo prints in each booth and some 80s trivia cards. The food itself was average. Nothing spectacular but decent. I had the pancakes with the yogurt.

Le Cave was quite busy so it took a while for us to get our two drinks. We finally got our food after a little over an hour. My husband got the lamb wellington but they didn't have lamb and offered beef instead. The sauce was overly salted. So i couldn't try more than the tiny bite i took. I got The lobster risotto. It had mixed reviews but i thought i would try it and have my own judgement. It was also the waitresses favorite. I will say, the herbs in the risotto was over powering and the lobster which was supposed to be poached tasted grilled and was over cooked. Like many other reviews, i couldn't cut it with my butter knife. Perhaps a steak knife would've helped. But it still doesn't help the fact that it was over cooked. The side of butter was unnecessary as everything was too flavorful. And the edamames were just a tad bit too much. Escargot was over cooked. The herb butter was flavorless. We were very disappointed as this was what we were looking forward to the most. Fois gre was ok. $200 dinner and we were not impressed. But it was worth a try.

The restaurant was clean and chill the entire time we were there. We appreciated the tapas menu, as it displayed variety without being too big. We went with the chips, salsa & guac; chicken salad with pita chips, and bang bang nachos with carnitas meat. We enjoyed the dining room, food, and drinks: all were solid. The dings were for how hard this place was to find, and that our waiter Brady was like a human icicle in personality and didn't check in with us after the food was delivered.
