    Portobello mushroom appetizer
    Marge M.

    The food was overall pretty good. We started with appetizers-fried calamari was a generous portion, contained tentacles (yum) and fresh; the artichoke and spinach dip was delicious and served in a large fried tortilla bowl; the portobello mushroom was okay. The skirt steak was good, and we chose rice and veggies. The swiss mushroom burger was good but different. It was a portobello on the burger with Swiss cheese on top of that big mushroom cap. I didn't care for the bun, but I was already full so it worked out. The place is decorated so cute with a beautiful Christmas tree, nutcrackers, and decorations and lights galore. We were the only ones in the dining room which was nice. The outside tables and bar were full and there was only one server. This made the service a bit slow to order and not overly attentive. Our server was pleasant but we felt bad as there was only one person for the whole place. I give her credit that she didn't loose her cool with how busy it was for her being the only one with alot of tables to get to.

    I came here on Friday night with friends for the first time. This is an absolute gem. The portions are very generous along with the price point. Service was great and there was even a live band. I will come back here again when I am in town.

    Heard about this place and my wife an I decided to try it today for lunch. We are local and are always looking for new places to eat. Evolution is a hidden gem set in a strip mall which is easily found. Atmosphere is warm, service was great. Met one the owner's Joe who greeted as and explained the restaurants concept and menu. We had two appetizers the rock shrimp and chicken siracha meatballs. The shrimp were freshly breaded and cooked perfectly. The chicken meatballs you can tell were made from scratch. Both were very good. I had a nice Caesar salad . Very fresh and delicious. My wife had the pulled pork sandwich which she said was good. No scrimping on the portions. Fun vibe . They offer wine nite, happy hour, live music, bar bingo nights. Seems like a great place to hangout with friends and enjoy.

    Don't pass up this spot that's a hidden gem in a strip mall on browertown road!! All of the food at Evolution is amazing, and the drinks never disappoint! Their regular menu is phenomenal, but the weekly specials and happy hour are where they shine. I haven't been anywhere that has such great happy hour deals since before the pandemic! Portion sizes are huge for the prices, and the service is always amazing! Love all of the bartenders and servers here! You can tell it's a family owned business because they always make guests feel like family. There's always something going on like live music, wine & paint nights, karaoke & dj's. It's such a fun night and it's on my regular rotation for places to go each week! Definitely stop by and don't be afraid to order the specials that Chef Dan & Chef Joe are offering!!

    Never thought I could have gourmet artichoke dip. OMG. Divine. Must try to Malbec too. The music, the vibe, the staff... Magical night. I have had the bass and the Ahí Tuna here too. Just amazing.

    Sesame seared ahi tuna with seaweed salad, so good!

    Checked out Barrow House after a farmers market visit and it was packed for a Sunday right at noon…read more Every room has a different vibe which makes the space feel really cozy and interesting instead of just one big dining room. We didn't have a reservation, but they were still able to seat us in the dining room as long as we could wrap up before 1:30, which we appreciated. I wasn't super hungry so we shared the crispy cauliflower and lamb ribs from the appetizer menu. The crispy cauliflower was excellent -- hot, actually crispy, and not drowning in sauce which I really appreciated. The lamb ribs came over labneh (a yogurt base) and the first plate arrived with the lamb cold. I asked our waitress if that was intentional and she said only the labneh should be cold. They immediately replaced it with a fresh order and handled it really well, which I appreciated. Great service recovery and overall a really enjoyable brunch spot with a lively atmosphere.

We dined at the bar as we were seeking a drink and a light snack. Calamari was GF and delicious (wish it was more crispy tho)! We also ordered the GF dry rub wings. Amazing, crispy, flavorful! Ambiance: 10/10 Drinks: 9/10 Food: 9/10 Parking: 10/10 I wish the bar staff smiled. Though they were great at serving us and providing us our items accurately, most had the energy of a deflated balloon. A smile could have went the wrong way, or even a proper greeting. I'm going to assume it was simply a long day, and hope to see them in the future hopefully on a better note. They still received a 22% tip for their service.

We did finally get drinks and shortly after we're told a table was available. It took quite a while before our waitress showed up. Since we already had drinks she was ready to walk away but we wanted to order a pretzel. She took the order, pretzel arrived more than 15 mins later, but it was delicious. It was good we had something to munch on cause our dinner, 2 burgers and a flatbread, arrived 45 mins later. The burgers were wrong, she said she had 2 Cali burgers. My husband ordered a cheeseburger, I did order the Cali. I took one, they sent the other back for correction. Once I went to eat mine I realized it was not a Cali burger. That had to be returned also. Both burgers were ordered medium rare, they were cooked well done. My friend did enjoy her flatbread. The manager did come by with a half hearted apology. She offered free dessert, we're not dessert eaters so did not accept the offer. Looking back, we should gave taken dessert to go. I wouldn't go back. I felt not one employee offered good service.

While visiting the American Dream mall for my son's birthday arcade pit…read morestop, my daughter and I were waiting on the side while the row of wines caught my attention. We walked over and were delighted to see the enomatic wine dispensers, with lots of wine in them. We started doing our own little wine tasting and started to like the wines we were tasting. Given that this was my son's 21st birthday and now legal to drink, I called him up and told him to finish his arcade experience. Since he doesn't really like drinking (I've tried to educate him at home at times) the tasting would be a good entry into wine. We had him drink a sweet moscato which we all liked. This is now his favorite wine . Not bad for a first timer. Elvis, I think he was the owner, heard our celebration and offered a bottle of Prosecco for the group. We all enjoyed a good toast and continued to go down the rows of wines. I love tasting flights of food and drinks so this place really was heaven to me. If you're thinking of hanging out and not sure of what wine to drink, definitely check out this place. You won't be disappointed.

I would give it 5 stars. Our waitress Swe, was delightful, kind, happy, described the dishes, gave suggestions, she is what you would expect from a waitress. Even the food runners were excellent, smiled and said hello when they approached the table. The service was definitely 5 star. The Food, presentation was excellent. The flavors, just weren't there. We started with these beautiful onion rings which were house made. Big, beautiful and fried to a crisp golden perfection,yet taste, there was none. absolutely nothing. the most boring onion ring ever. Then the wedge salad, chopped and soggy. If your going to reinvent a classic salad, it better be good. I had the seared yellow fin tuna, again what happen to the flavor. it had a carrot ginger puree, that was more for color than flavor. the best part was the arugula pickled onions and tomatoes that came on the plate. My dinner partner had 16 oz prime dry age rib eye, which he did not enjoy. I am not a meat eater but tastes it and was not impressed. this steak was so thin. they took 16oz and spread it across the entire plate, taking away the true essences of a steak. I was pretty disappointed in the food but the cocktails were very good as well as their wine-selection. I beautiful place with great staff, which i would go back maybe just for happy hour. One other disappointment is with being such an nice steakhouse and all of the staff dressed and all so professional why isn't there any type os dressed code. Why are they allowing people to dine in sweatpants and messy t shirts. They should have a requirement. most diners were dressed so nice but allowing sweat pants. my two star rating is based solely on the flavor of the food.
