    This place is such a blessing. After losing two of our three hounds in a year, our lone dog left, Titan, was feeling a little lonely. We had been anxiously awaiting this spot to open and am so glad we did! Titan has an absolute blast there, and we do too! The staff are friendly, especially the ruf-erees who know Titan's specialty is butt rubs. The dog owners here are responsible and are obvious dog lovers. The park has ample space with plenty of spots for humans to sit, and the outdoor TVs are a great touch. We have made friends here and Titan has too! Thank you Drafty Dane for opening in Marietta!

    The drafty Dane is the best place ever! The staff are extremely friendly and the bartenders are fantastic! Love having a local, safe dog park to bring my pup to! They host a lot of fun events like taking pictures with Santa, trivia, and specific dog breed events! We love it here!!!

First off, I love the history of this building... 1800s, supposedly the jail at some point long ago. You can just feel the history and imagine what took place in there as you sit and wait for your meal. The staff are all fun and attentive, and our server -- who was also tending bar that day -- was amazing! We were there early enough for the half priced apps, and weren't hungry enough for a full meal. I ordered a side salad with ranch, and we split the smoked nachos. When they came out, it was a huge portion and enough for both my wife and I. The only drawback is that they didn't have any sour cream that we could add to the nachos... It may seem trivial, but I've never needed anyplace that didn't have sour cream for the nachos. Because of that, I will give this a 4.75 stars. We will definitely be back!

    I've been wanting to try this place out since last year and my family and I finally decided to go…read moreon a random Friday night. It's located in a shopping center (there's a racetrac sharing the area as well) but it's easy to find with the standout signage. We could tell from the parking lot that it wasn't super busy and once we walked in, we were greeted and taken to our table. The waiting area has all sorts of license plates, merch, an area for local businesses to leave cards and kinda gives you a colorful glimpse into the restaurant itself. We were seated in the Front Yard and my kiddos immediately fell in love with the vibrant colors of the decor, the bus that they could see which is located behind the bar area, and they each got a pack of wikki stixs that kept them occupied throughout our time at the table. The decor makes the space super fun, there are plenty do tvs around, and this was just a really family friendly place. Our waiter was attentive and took great care of us. While I was stuck between getting the MMY Patty Melt, I decided to go with the Totally Tubular Turkey Club. My husband got the Buckin' Buffalo, one kiddo opted for a cheeseburger and the other kiddo wanted chicken tenders. It took about 15 mins for the food to come and when it did it looked sooooo delicious. My club was fresh and tasted really good. Bacon, turkey, white American cheese, lettuce, tomato and I guess their house sauce all on sourdough. I loved it and I opted for onion rings instead of tots or fries because I really wanted some and really enjoyed them. The onion rings were not greasy and tasty so good. Everyone enjoyed their food (the kiddos mentioned their fries being a bit salty and after I tried one I agreed) but we were near the pinball room soooo after they finished they were asking if they could go okay games. Before we left the table, I got a cookies n cream milkshake which was sooooo good and came with whipped cream, Oreo crumbles on top and gummy worms. We did visit the pinball room and the kids had a blast. Bring cash to play most of the games but it was fun to see everyone having fun playing games and enjoying their Friday night. Really enjoyed this place and want to come back to try some other items on the menu. Such a cute place!

Unfortunately, as someone who has eaten burgers all over the world the Trucker Burger was disappointing on many levels. First of all, it felt like a misleading description to describe the burger as having two "smash patties". These were definitely not smash patties under the traditional definition in my opinion. The bun was good, but the burger patties themselves were far too plump, lacked bounce, had no caramelization in the edges and were not juicy on the inside. It tasted like a burger you'd find at your neighbor's backyard BBQ with a general lack of flavor and course texture like the lean to fat ratio was off and the burger was cooked on too low a temperature. The staff was very friendly and the food came out quickly. Unfortunately, the burger was a let down and extremely overpriced. You're better off going to a fast casual spot like Freddy's where you can get a great smash burger for much less.

The standout for me was easily the jerk chicken eggrolls. They were packed with flavor, perfectly seasoned, and had just the right amount of heat. Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, they were one of those appetizers you end up wishing you had ordered two of. If you're looking for a chill spot to grab drinks, catch a vibe, and enjoy some good food, Bar 44 is definitely worth a visit. I'll be back for those eggrolls alone.

Upon selecting our own seating, we were informed that they were NOT serving brunch and they were out of eggrolls. Additionally, our server is stuck in traffic, so we have to wait until her arrival. While waiting for our server to arrive, we were "entertained" by an unaccompanied child a few times. There were 6 women in our party. All enjoyed their food and drinks (which were strong). I ordered the Rasta Pasta with no protein. I wanted to order the Cajun Pasta with Vegetables but was informed by the server that they don't really have vegetables and that she does not recommend that order. I appreciated the honesty. The Rasta Pasta was good - B+. When we finished our meal, we requested little plates to serve the birthday cake. We were brought plates. Shortly after, to our surprise, the other party that was there had a birthday song along with sign and sparklers presented to their table. Our table did not receive that treatment. I asked our server why we didn't get that treatment, she stated because they had their cake stored in their kitchen. This was an unacceptable response. Our server was well aware of our table's birthday celebration as she commented on the cake when she first arrived and asked whose birthday it was. To receive no acknowledgment felt very disrespectful. To add insult to injury, the other party was an all-white crew, while my party was an all-black crew. The food and drinks were good. However, the poor service and accommodations, lack of brunch and acknowledgment for our birthday girl, has made my decision to never return.

According to Marietta.com, the restaurant was originally named "Local on North," but changed to "L On North" to avoid confusion with another Marietta Square restaurant, "The Marietta Local." There are two sister locations in Canton and Duluth, both named "Local on North." I had the following: * Chicken Banh Mi Spring Rolls ($15.95) - Springer Mountain Farms breast, pickled carrots, jicama, sweet chili, jalapeno ranch, micro herbs * Pan-Roasted Grouper ($26) - grouper, yucca pancake, mango and local tomato salsa, jalapeno cream Everything was fresh and tasty and plated nicely. We visited on a Monday and business was unsurprisingly slow. For a place that was dead at the time, the food was still pretty good. Service was great. Our server was friendly. I wish I remembered her name so I could give her a shout-out here. Live music every Thursday-Sunday. I could see this place having a decent bar scene. Dining room is in the back. Atmosphere is casual. You can park for free on the Square, on nearby streets, and in certain lots/decks. Just be sure to pay attention to signs for hours and/or time limits. There are pay lots in the area too. I believe L On North opened in December 2019.

Kennedy was patient with our 1st visit questions & explaining the specials. We got a couple drinks (reasonably priced at $10-$12 these days) - a whiskey sour for me. Wife didn't love her raspberry caipirinha but I thought it was very good. Main course - scallop special over coconut spinach risotto for me was delicious & wife loved her seared ahi tuna (way too rare for me). One gripe - bathrooms are unisex so the men had apparently made a mess of the one my wife visited, which was gross for her. But everything else was very nice. With the two drinks & two entrees, we were out for $100 + tip. Be aware, menu warns of a splitting charge & there's also the now common 3 1/2% charge for credit card use. Gee, the more I write, I'm tempted to take back a star but I won't due to the otherwise nice time.
