Food was solid, cute outdoor seating on a nice summer night. Inside looked bright and clean. Quick service. Great 90s soundtrack playing. The menu I looked up online was very different from what we were presented upon seating so I'm not sure if I somehow looked at the wrong thing. Prices were a little high for what I would have expected but felt like a premium for the nice, new area. read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch. I ordered the protein Cobb salad and my husband got the pot roast dip sandwich. Both items arrived quickly. I noticed my avocado was missing from the salad so the waitress went to check on it. She soon brought a dish of a half avocado. The salad was also supposed to have mixed greens but had romaine...small details but maybe they're dealing with supply issues. The salad was OK, nothing amazing about it, but nothing bad either. Husband enjoyed his sandwich. There are lots of other places to get food of this caliber. It was good, so if we're in the area we'd stop in, but not really a place to make a special trip for. read more

After getting soaked at the farmers market, we sought refuge here. I was cold and hungry so everything on the menu sounded amazing. A nice bowl of warm soup was on my mind so I ended up trying their house soup. It reminded me of a minestrone with the beans and veggies in a tomato base except the meat was beef pot roast. I heard amazing things about the fig n awesome burger and if you like that sweet/salty combo then this hits the spot. My burger had the right amount of fig jam and with the salty burger meat and caramelized onions, it all worked perfectly together. The sweet potato fries are nice and crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle. If you've never dipped sweet potato fries into some honey mustard then you're missing out because it's such a good combo! I was so famished, I ate most of my food except for maybe a handful of fries. That's how you know this place really hit the spot! read more

Pot roast dinner was shredded beef with gravy. Not 1 chunk of meat. I asked the server and he said you had to ask for more solid. I said I did ask for a nice piece of meat. Plus it c as me cool after sitting there 10 minutes before he picked it up. Just horrible. I'd give it a zero if I voild read more

I can see the potential in this place. The food was very good and the drinks were awesome. It was a pleasant surprise to see we still arrived while happy hour was taking place. I'm sure it gets packed during the weekends too. The staff was very friendly and was there for us whenever we needed it. I look forward to going back some time read more

The atmosphere is pleasant with music, tv's, a bar, and tables. It looks clean. The menu has variety but isn't huge. The service was good, not great, but it was a Friday night, and 10 of us had a reservation at 715. Our table was ready, and a fairly manageable flow of people came in and out during our stay. The food was excellent with good quality ingredients and good flavor. Portions are large. The Veg wrap (I added chicken) was seasoned well and plentiful. I would have ordered another drink, and some at our table would have had dessert, but we were ne ver asked. They just presented our bills. I would absolutely return and look forward to doing so to try other menu items. read more

Words are not enough to express the kind of value this gem really is in the area. From the outside it may not look like a big place but the minute you walk in is the minute you realize that we should never judge a book for its cover. The place is very very accommodating all tables are spread out evenly throughout the floor, booths are in great areas for families or even a date night! The staff is amazing! And the food overall is excellent! George is such a professional gentleman. Definitely making this a regular in my list read more

Not many places offer pot roast on the menu, we were drawn to their comfort-food menu. What we ordered: pot roast flatbread (a little burnt), spicy hot cheeseburger, caprese chicken wrap, and pulled-pork Mac-n-cheese. Seriously, we shared everything and seriously everything was delicious. Especially yum was the burger and Mac-cheese. Yes! I would recommend and yes, go back for more. Cute area too with out door seating, music Thursdays, and an ice cream nearby. read more

AVOID THIS RESTAURANT. oof. In all honesty, this has got to be the worst experience of my life attending a restaurant. My "server" was a women, and during the times we spoke I could sense her hostility. I chose to disregard it because I was waiting on family to arrive, we were celebrating a special occasion. Once they arrived, we were ready to order. We went over the order with her 4 times before the tickets were sent to the back, as one of my siblings has a dietary restriction. Keep in mind, the interaction was very minimal and straightforward. She never relayed they were understaffed, apologized, or smiled. No customer service, NOTHING. At first we didn't mind, I explained to my siblings that things happen and to sit patiently while we wait on the food. Our food was brought out to us incorrectly. I'm a foodie so, again I didn't care. I ate it as it was, even if it was incorrect. However, the food I ordered for my sibling with a dietary restriction was also wrong, so I politely called her over to discuss the issue. Omg, she was livid and it made us all uncomfortable but regardless of her poor behavior I kept my cool and reassured her mistakes happen but he simply couldn't eat it and if it could be fixed. SHE brought it out a second time and again it was wrong. BROUGHT IT A THIRD TIME AND WRONG AGAIN mind you it was just a burger with two patties, pickles, lettuce and his side of fries. Every time she came back she was more angry and she started throwing the food to the table. I asked for the check after the third time and we didn't even finish our dinner we got it to go because the vibe had shifted to where we no longer felt comfortable staying. When she brought the check I asked her why the burger was included in my bill if it had been done incorrectly three times mind you I only spoke up because not only did she ruin our dinner but her behavior for a grown women working in a costumer service based field was disgusting. She addressed me with an attitude and said something along the lines of I'm losing money it was brought out to you three times gaslighting me to think I was the problem as the PAYING COSTUMER. So I asked for a manager, PLOT TWIST, This was the manager. She never shared her name. She never apologized NEVER COMMUNICATED or engaged appropriately with us. I told her if this bill reflected her service and she said yes. I told her ok and paid the $89.91 for food we didn't order and couldn't finish in the restaurant. Later on she felt embarrassed and sent an actual server to pick up the check and HE APOLOGIZED on her behalf. Once home I saw the reviews and realized this was a reoccurring issue. Overall place was trash and won't be returning. Also I would love to give credit where it's due and Miguel you did a great job addressing her aftermath as it was never about the my bill more so her professionalism that was giving cheap. read more

The food was pretty good, definitely bar food. Service left something g to be desired. But overall a cool place to eat with the family or grab a bite and a drink. Tried the chip nachos, Cuban sandwich, burger, grilled chicken sandwich, French dip, and the cheesecake and chocolate cake. Delicious. read more

The Cubano sandwich was delicious. Ordered a loaded baked potato, and my potato wasn't cooked long enough, and there was a strange yellow condiment that might have been margarine, but definitely wasn't butter - not my favorite. read more

It's a bit pricey but so delicious. The pot roast hamburger was amazing! They also offer gluten free buns for all theirs burgers/sandwiches as well as many entrees that are gf. read more

I believe this restaurant opened up not too long ago, and thought to give it a try! We went for lunch around 2:30pm on a Saturday to avoid dinner rush, and it was fairly quiet. The staff was very kind and attentive, checked in on us often. The cheese curds were delicious. I had the pot roast dip sandwich with sweet potato fries. The fries were probably my favorite, nothing beats a beautifully cooked sweet potato fry. The sandwich was great, although I feel like it was missing something. It was good nonetheless, and the pot roast inside was great! read more

First time here. Went for mid day lunch and the food was great. My mom had pulled pork I had a chicken club on. GF bun. The chicken was tender and not like most overdone sandos. The service was super friendly and the vibe in the place was fun. Ellie our server was super nice and was a fan of the food. Always a good sign when the servers love the grub!!!! Can't wait to come back read more

Great chicken fajitas, turkey burgers, regular hamburger and baked potato. Excellent service and clean environment.

My husband and I decided to try Meat & Potato Urban Kitchen after a recommendation from a friend. What a great recommendation it was. With a name like this we had to try the meat and potatoes. As an appetizer we ordered the spud nachos. This is a take on traditional nachos but with homemade potato chips instead of nacho chips. They come loaded with queso cheese sauce, bacon bits, tomato, sour cream, and green onions. You can add meat, but we elected not to. The chips were crisp and the toppings did not make the chips soggy, even after half an hour. The toppings tasted great, overall this dish is a winner. The nachos were pretty filing so we decided to share the Mac Daddy Burger. This burger had bacon, mac n cheese, cheddar cheese, BBQ sauce on a brioche bun. The beef itself had an amazing flavor on its own. The additional toppings just added to the overall flavor. It was like getting another side of bacon mac and cheese on top of your hamburger. It also came with French fries, which were crispy and flavorful. I wanted to try the sweet potato fries but was overruled. The service was quick and friendly. The prices were a steal for the quality and quantity of food that was served. We didn't have any room for dessert but will come back to try the dessert menu (the pictures on Yelp look amazing) as well as other offerings. This is a great place to go out on a date, or to watch the game, or go out with the family. Hoping that they will be around for many years to come. read more

Food was decent. The service however was terrible. I had a shamrock green cocktail spilled on my white sweater. The waitress didn't offer to comp the drink or even offer to get me extra napkins to clean up. The person I was with wrote a review with this experience and the owner blatantly lied with his response on here saying he "checked the cameras" and I was given a replacement: there was NO replacement, I ordered two drinks and paid full amount for both, nothing was comp'd or given as a replacement- How unprofessional of the owner to lie! The place was empty during busy dinner hours, so that says a lot. We won't be returning. read more

Can't say enough great things about M & P. Not only is the food delicious, and we have never had a bad meal here, but the staff is AMAZING. I've been in hospitality for 25 years and trust me, I notice everything and I'm hyper critical. We recently visited last Saturday night and all our favorite people were working. Saul and Ruby are the absolute best. They go out of their way to make us feel so welcome. It means so much! Top notch customer service. And they were not even waiting on us on that night.....Ashley was our server. What a caring, hospitable individual she was! Great personality, so genuine. Beyond fantastic! BTW, that pot roast sandwich is no joke... melts in your mouth. We are bringing our extended family on the next trip in. I'm sure they will love it as much as we do. Thanks M&P!! read more

Very nice, good food, and the atmosphere is pleasant. Service was good. I would highly recommend this food. Very good!

Nice ambience but below average food. We ordered the veg burger, flatbread both were not good. Husband liked his grain bowl. I will not return read more

I came here because I was in town on business. I used yelp to find a spot with a good vibe, good food, and beer. But I was not expecting this gem to deliver the way that it did. The service was incredible. The avocado flatbread was delicious. And the clientele was great. read more

I had a really great experience here at MP Kitchen & Bar. Their staff gave me an awesome treatment and made my whole stay so fun! had a patty melt with a veggie burger patty and a basket of fries. The patty melt was delicious and filling, and the fries were fresh and salted just right. The service was courteous and accommodating and the atmosphere and decor were top notch. It was a great experience overall and I'm looking forward to a second visit! read more

We finally tried it here and was not disappointed. We've done take out 4-5 times now in a couple months. Everything is delicious ! The appetizers especially the spud nachos were to die for. The Meatloaf Sandwich I've had twice now and is excellent. The Mac Daddy burger is another excellent choice. Food is always hot and delicious when we get it. I will definitely be ordering again. I recommend this restaurant to everyone. read more

We stopped in on a Saturday for a late lunch. There were a handful of occupied tables, but throughout our time there was a steady stream of customers. They were short on staff, one waitress, and one hostess but they get an A + for service. We started out with the cheese curds. They were lightly fried . The chipotle ranch dipping sauce had a slight kick. I had the meatloaf sandwich based on several reviews. The meatloaf sandwich was very similar to a Salisbury steak. It was topped with thin, fried onions. I also had sweet potato fries, I always get a bit upset that there is an upcharge for sweet potato fries. My husband had The Burger. It came topped with ketchup, mayo and other condiments. I liked how the entrees were presented in a cast iron like skillet. The food was very good,, service was great and an added bonus is they were broadcasting Marquis sports network, the Cubs v Yankees game ! read more

I'm not really sure what they do to make the burger standout from others in recent memory but the "Burger " I ordered to dine in was exceptionally tasty. I like the bun too. At first I thought the size was an apology for mediocrity but I was so wrong. It's flipping delicious. The environment is very clean and friendly. I would not hesitate to come here again or recommend it to anyone. My server Madisyn was just the right mix of being attentive, professional, and kind. read more

We were a bit late for lunch, but our server was still very friendly and helpful. We ordered the turkey burger and Buffalo chicken wrap. Both were promptly served and were delicious. Our server was attentive, checking on us regularly. We'll be back. read more

MP Kitchen is our favorite neighborhood restaurant! We were there again last night and the food and service were exemplary! I had the meatloaf for the first time and it was outstanding! Thanks George for continuing to provide quality food and drinks at affordable pricing! And your service is always outstanding! We'll be back soon! read more

Damn this place is TASTY. Kinda pricey but sooo good. Honestly the best meatloaf I've had - super juicy and so much flavor. Delicious with the mashed potatoes and veggies and comes wrapped in bacon. The Fig N Awesome burger is probably my favorite. The fig jam, caramelized onions, havarti, and burger patty really meld together into a perfect sweet and savory meal. You'll end up really sticky, but it'll be completely worth it. I've also had the pot roast dip and it was really delicious. A bit too much for me but really savory and decadent. If you love pot roast I'd definitely give it a try and if you've never liked pot roast, this might turn you into a believer. Haven't had the chance to dine in, all of our orders have been for carry-out, but we've been impressed with every single order and are more than happy to come back over and over. Going to drop in for dinner at some point and check out their drink menu as well. If you're looking for a place to eat in the downtown Wheeling area, I would give this a shot before City Works even though it might seem more appealing. It's definitely tastier and worth more for your money. read more

Decided to finally try this place out, and we will definitely be back! The owner and servers were super friendly! The interior was well decorated and the food was great! We had wings, loaded baked potatoe, and the beefd up burger that was recommended. Everything was great, would definitely recommend. Cheesecake is a must try! read more

I have passed this restaurant many times commuting to work and I've always wanted to stop in. F*** that! There were multiple dark hairs in my food and my bread bun looked shriveled up with green specks in them!! FYI I'm definitely not a brunette. I asked for the manager and I believe I spoke to the owner? If you can call him that. Very cold and didn't even comp me or reimburse me or even offer anything. Would NEVER recommend this restaurant to anyone I like. The reason I'm posting this is because of their sup-par performance, not compensating, the owners rude approach, and for the taint smell you are bulldozed with when entering. How can you even call this food?! Recommend your enemies...warn your friends. read more

The food is good and they have a lot of options. But the staff always acts like we are a bothering them when we are just there to pick up the food! Not one person has ever been friendly to us on our 3 times there! read more

This restaurant really surprised me; the food was warm and delicious, the drinks were awesome, and the service was amazing. The food arrived in a timely fashion, the service was great - our waitress was super kind - and the small selection of beers really impressed me. My friend and I split the potato skins (there's only 2 pieces but they're good!), and we also enjoyed a Buffalo chicken wrap (a bit of a kick). The flourless chocolate cake was the best part... I was most impressed by the spaced out dining room and service. Definitely coming back!! read more
