    FLAVORED LEMONADE (Blueberry)
    Samantha A.

    I was a little apprehensive about this place considering the reviews... But, either it was a bad night or they made adjustments based on the customer feedback, because I didn't have any issues. I have been here 3 times now. Once an hour before close on a Tuesday night, once in the middle of lunch rush on a Friday, and once around dinner time during the week. All 3 visits I was greeted & seated immediately. I chose to sit in the dining room, since I don't drink. But you can sit in the bar, they have high top tables. My server Diana C came over within a few minutes and took my drink order. Came back promptly with drinks, and took my food order. She was attentive and friendly, and the food came out pretty quickly each time. The food was prepared correctly, seasoned well, and portions were generous. They have a great variety of items on the menu to choose from and cover breakfast through dinner. The experience was great, and I had no complaints. So I went back two more times, and the service, food, and vibes were consistently good.

    Came here after my niece did her band concert at school and this was the right place for a quick nosh. Got a cup of clam chowder which was just enough food. The niece got a burger and she seemed fine with it and my sister in law inhaled her tacos. Mom tried the fish and chips, but she was already done in by the clam chowder so she made me eat it. It was a little greasy and airy, so it wasn't my favorite. What I liked was the quick service and our waitress was very friendly and helpful. She also put our drinks in a to go cup since we barely drank it as we stuffed our mouths, so that was a nice touch.

    Boneless wings partially filled from what i normally get. Inconsistent on the chefs behalf numerous times.

    The food is basic burger fare. The service is usually good. Ambiance well is ok. Not easy to have a private conversation.

    Is this the type of place that a person could have lunch casually by themself earlier in the day, maybe whip the laptop out and get some work done? Or is it mostly pretty busy, noisy, etc during the early afternoon?

    It is pretty busy and noisy.

    Had a very nice happy hour experience this week. It was my first time coming here and was told it…read morehad a great happy hour. There are. Handful of small plates available for happy hour with the purchase of a drink. I got the onion burger, shrimp skewer, and asparagus. The burger was juicy and a great size. It also came with a handful of matchstick fries. I really enjoyed the shrimp skewer as well. My friend tried the lobster bisque. The soup was delicious, but it was more of a tomato soup with chunks of lobster. Will definitely go back for dinner some time. They also had a great selection of whiskey. I also really enjoyed the ambiance.

    BRING YOUR WALLET... 2 at 5pm no reservation. Hostess wasn't…read morepresent but a kitchen staff, taking a break, jumped up quickly and warmly greeted us - the hostess came right after. She was pleasant and sat us in the sunshine on the patio. I was sad to see so few patrons. I will review the best part first: THE COCKTAILS: The spirits and craft cocktail selection was huge / the beer & wine not so much. My Old Fashioned was perfect! Food: Seafood Rosé Pasta (bay scallops, shrimp, northwest manila clams, rosé prosecco cream sauce, grilled bread) -- inconsistent cook on the different seafoods & the sauce was meh. Not worth $42.00 Grilled Romaine Salad (white balsamic bleu cheese dressing, gorgonzola, cherry tomatoes, aleppo toasted hazelnuts) -- plenty of romaine, could've been grilled longer / not much quantity of tomatoes or toasted hazelnuts -- basically a "side salad" for $15.00 Lobster Bisque (house smoked tomatoes, roasted red pepper, cream, butter poached langoustine lobster) -- tasted more like roasted tomato / red pepper soup (no lobster or seafood flavors) - there were 4 small pieces of poached?? langoustine lobster on top - I question poached because the pieces definitely had a bite to them. Worth $15.00 -- no. Due to reviews we had the Baklava Crumble (pistachios, honey, vanilla ice cream) -- basically cut up (very chewy, not crispy) baklava tossed over ice cream for $14.00 -- maybe a bad night for this dessert? We like to support small Olympia businesses and will go back for cocktails but the food costs are too high - we don't mind high costs IF we come away satisfied - unfortunately the food didn't measure up to the cost. As we drove away, we saw the "Budd Bay Cafe" was very busy - I think next time we'll have cocktails at Cynara, then cross the street for food and wine. We were intrigued with the "Clam Chowder Entrée" which is served à la minute (Washington manila clams, bacon, cream, celery, roasted potatoes, grilled bread) -- is it a deconstructed chowder?? $33.00 Sorry no pics.

    The ambience is beautiful inside…read more The best part of the Baked Eggs dish was the cheese. The cheese was so flavorful, creamy, and delicious. Next best was the bread - it was perfectly soft inside with a crispy crust. Between how oily the dish was and my nose running from the increased spice as I continued eating, I wouldn't return for this dish. The eggs weren't noticeable in appearance or taste- I had to search for them. The "creamy grits" were creamy, but the black pepper taste was STRONG. Definitely ordered the side for the "creamy" factor, hoping when the server said harissa in the eggs would have a mild spice, that the grits would calm my mouth. The amount of pepper made this unsuccessful. But if you like black pepper a lot then you'll enjoy them. My son enjoyed the beignet's. The server was also the host and he was kind. It was easy to get his attention when needed. I didn't see anyone with a grin on their face after taking bites of their food. I looked around quite a bit out of curiosity. So for ambiance, kind and prompt service, and the possibilities of the menu I gave it 4 stars. We only tried the few things I mentioned. I did also appreciate the bottle of water ready on every table. Note that there is no kids menu and it's mostly table seating. So maybe try on your own or with other adults, and leave the kids at home?

They don't charge an arm and a leg for the 'burg, either, like SOME places do. Beer selection is good, especially the ciders. Something for everybody. There's live music pretty often too.

    I want to give them 3.5 stars…read more The atmosphere here is great. Very much a local Olympia pub. Fits the theme of some sort of lodge/club. The table we sat at was on a slight slope, but not annoying enough for us to move. There was only one server working. All orders went through the bar. Great selection of beer and ciders. The menu was limited. It is pub grub. Went with a smash burger fries and onion rings. Food came out and it looked great. The fries and onion rings were lukewarm warm to cold. I have been told many times that their smash burger is the best burger in Olympia. I don't see it. It's the 2nd time I have had it, the spices are stronger than expected. Edges of my patty were burnt, and it relies on the sauce to make up for taste. It's not a bad burger, but it isn't amazing either. My wife was not impressed at all, and told me she won't be needing to go back. For me, I won't be disappointed if I end up back at this place. But I also won't be making the choice to go back. Maybe for beers...
