The restaurant itself is bright, colorful, clean, and really well designed. I loved the clever bench seating, the bar was well stocked, and there's outdoor seating plus an upstairs area that looked really cool. They also have a walk-up taco window outside, which is a fun idea. We sat in the bar area, and the service was amazing. Everyone was friendly and attentive. The food, though, was really underwhelming. Almost everything we tried lacked seasoning and flavor. I ordered the chicken enchiladas, which had very little chicken and were pretty bland. I did like the very thinly sliced jalapeños on top. The rice was nice and fluffy but didn't have much flavor, and they serve black beans, which just aren't my preference with Mexican food. The house-made salsa was surprisingly sweet, and I was disappointed that the chips didn't seem house-made. If I'm going out for Mexican food, fresh chips are one of those little things I really look forward to. My husband ordered tacos at $6 each, which felt pretty steep considering we're used to excellent tacos in the $2-$3 range. His carne asada was cooked closer to medium rare, which wasn't what we expected at all from carne asada. The queso was another disappointment. It tasted very similar to Rico's cheese sauce you can buy at the grocery store. Overall, great service, great decor, very clean and a fun atmosphere, but the food just didn't match the setting or the reviews for us. At these prices, I expected a lot more flavor. Unfortunately, we left pretty disappointed.

The menu offers a lot of delicious options, and both my husband and our friend loved the Buttermilk Fried Chicken. I ordered the Salmon, which was okay. The Spanish Coffee was one of the best I've had. Unfortunately, the biggest disappointment was how my food allergies were handled. I had included my dietary restrictions in our reservation and also called the restaurant the night before to make sure they could accommodate me. I was reassured after they checked with the kitchen that most items on the menu could be modified to work within my restrictions. Based on that conversation, I felt comfortable keeping our reservation. Since we were dining with others for a birthday celebration, I had hoped the information from my reservation and phone call would have been communicated to our server so I wouldn't need to go through all of my restrictions again at the table. Instead, I had to explain everything during dinner. Because the restaurant is extremely loud and the tables are packed closely together, our server had to stand across the table from me, which meant having to discuss my allergies loudly in front of our entire party and the surrounding tables. It was an uncomfortable and awkward situation. What was most frustrating, however, was then being told that my options were essentially limited to a protein and green beans. This was a far cry from what I had been told the night before that the kitchen could modify most items on the menu to accommodate me. I completely understand that not every restaurant can accommodate every allergy or dietary restriction, and I don't expect them to. My concern is that I specifically called ahead for this reason and relied on the information I was given. Had I been told beforehand that my options would be so limited, we simply would have chosen another restaurant where I could enjoy a nice meal along with everyone else for my husband's birthday. For anyone dining with significant food allergies or restrictions, I would recommend getting very specific information about what can actually be accommodated before making a reservation.

As for the zukey melt. They brought it out with the disclaimer that it only looked burnt bc it's rye bread. Sure tasted burnt. With hardly any cheese or onions. Basically a meat Pattie.

I feel cottage inn pizza in Brighton has come some way. Before in the past I have ordered carry out from there and it was just ok. This week I heard new owners took it over so I figured I would check it out. Let me tell you, I ordered a inn club sub a small cheese pizza an order of bread and an order of cinnamon sticks. My sub was the best sub I have EVER had from any pizza place. The pizza and bread sticks just so good the kids ate it up. All food felt like it was definitely made with love! The cinnamon sticks just topped it all off with just the right amount of sweet. Keep up the good work.... read more

Locals really like this spot, for good reason. It's comfortable, clean and service is fair to good. I placed an order for a carryout pizza and bread. With the busy bar it took a few minutes to catch the bartender to order; expect that placing an order might take a few extra minutes, so if you're in a hurry it might be best to just call ahead. I came in to grab a pizza to take home and ordered a large square ($19 for deep dish versus $17 for hand tossed) with 3 toppings (pepperoni, caramelized onions and Kalamata olives). I have to say, they have some top shelf toppings that you won't find at Jet's. Each additional topping on a large is $2.50, fyi. After looking at the menu online, I was considering ordering a 1/2 and 1/2 large but the pricing for each additional 1/2 topping was still $2.50. Maybe that was a website glitch but that would've meant that I was spending double the price to top a large pizza?! Anyway, I ordered the large and topped the whole thing the same; it was $26.50 for the 3 topping pie. I will give them props for their large squares!.. they are big...bigger than a Jet's larges (14x10), measuring 14x14. I liked that! They topped it with a good amount of pepperoni and a fair portion of the olives, but they chinced me on the cheapest topping, the caramelized onions. There were hardly any : ( Moving on, I ordered a feta bread too. They included both Ranch and pizza sauce, which I appreciate! Their pizza sauce is pretty good, the Ranch is standard but serviceable. Overall, I think it was a pretty good pie and bread for the price. I did see a ton of great items on their menu so I'll need to try them again.
