Stopped by Trojan Grill on a Monday night and the place was totally dead, which honestly made for a…read morenice quiet dinner. The service was really good -- friendly, attentive, and we never had to wait on anything. We started with the Bavarian pretzel and Brussels sprouts, both solid choices. My wife got the southwest salad and I had the Fire Alarm burger with fries. Burger was messy in the best way and had a nice kick without being ridiculous. Also, shoutout to the strawberry margarita because they used real strawberries instead of sugary mixer syrup, and you could absolutely taste the difference. Now for the funniest part of the night: the crab dip. Look... it tasted good. But this was less "crab dip" and more "pimento cheese with a small hint of crab There was just the faintest hint of crab in there somewhere fighting for its life. Overall though, the place has potential. Good service, decent food, relaxed atmosphere, and with a little refinement on a few dishes, I could definitely see this becoming a regular spot.

I was tasked with phoning in the reservation (thankfully the meal went better than that debacle)and since we were dining early it wasn't an issue. First of all, there are two places in the property; the Tavern and 5 Fields pizza and beer. We dined at the Tavern. GORGEOUS garden lining the old farmhouse! We went in and were seated inside right away. As it was almost 100 today it was ideal seating. The decore is well.... different. Where we sat was a truck grill from 1928, and there was more of a sports motiff. (If you go and sit in the same room, let me know if you can spot the crooked pic!) Once again, my curse at remembering names of the servers has hit again which is a real sham because she was beyond AWESOME. She was VERY patient with my extremely frustrating mum which was nice. We both got this truly genius idea of an appetizer to start; a veggie boat with a ranch style dressing. Omg it was perfect. Warm day, cruciferous veggies, ice cold drinks. Heaven. Next came the burgers, she got the Tavern burger, I got the Charles City burger. The Tavern has cheddar cheese and bacon, the Charles City has bree cheese and this creamy mojo ajo aoli along with fried shallots....there is probably more but all I know is that I feel like an idiot never having triple creme bree on a burger before. I have to take a moment to also inform you that they make the BEST Cosmo outside of NYC. Perfectly blended and chilled, and just strong enough to celebrate a Friday night. Yowza! One.more thing. They tempted me with a scoop of their home made butter pecan ice cream. I just want to move in and become one with this place it was so good. I haven't had butter pecan this good in 50 years!! After this essay I guess you could say that I HIGHLY recommend this restaurant. It's in a beautiful area, lots of parking, great food & ambiance. I couldn't find a single fault.

The menu also has so many food options, making it easy to find something for everyone. The food overall was great and very enjoyable. However, I would not recommend the brownie and chocolate sundae dessert. The brownie and cookie were cold and hard, which made the dessert disappointing. On the positive side, the carrot cake was huge and definitely worth sharing -- easily enough for 3-4 people. The service was excellent as well. Our waiter was very attentive throughout the meal and made sure everything was taken care of.

My son and I chose to dine early to beat the rush. We got here at 5pm and we're seated right away. The kids menu has a great selection, but my son chose the cheeseburger and fries. The cheeseburger was very plain, void of any vegetable or topping. They use ciabata, and it was very tough. My son asked to use the parmesan roll and said that was better. I ordered That Nutty chicken with broccoli, subbed the Mac and cheese for the mashed potatoes. That decision I regret. The Mac was very boring, bland and not homemade. One would think with the upcharge, the quality would be better, but no. The chicken was okay. I liked the flavor of the chicken, but the portion size was small and the serving of broccoli was even smaller, about 3 pieces. Our server was great and I enjoyed the atmosphere! It is a little noisy, so if that bothers you, just be prepared.
