    Service was a little slow but it was a Sunday brunch rush kind of day. Food was amazing and very tasty. Drinks looked great but weren't strong.

    Trying out a new place. Not our intention to go here tonight, but the place we were going to had an hour wait time. The food was good, however, I don't recommend their homemade potato chips. Maybe it was just a bad night, I don't know, but the chips came out very brown and tasted practically burnt. Wife had the pulled pork sandwich and I had the spicy chicken sandwich. They were good. We also had the truffle fries. They were ok at best. The entire truffle fry appetizer was just bits and pieces of fries and not a lot of regular fries. Might give the place another try at some point, but wouldn't recommend wasting your time. The place is also very loud. It seemed as if everyone felt the need the scream to communicate. Try this place and decide for yourself, but I won't be back anytime soon. Service was also kind of slow in our opinion.

    First time back to the water shed pub in a while. Our Dinner Club decided to try something new and something local. We were not disappointed. We started out with a variety of appetizers - the deviled eggs, smoked hummus, harissa, honey, carrots, Trufle, Parmesan fries, and Karaage. Karaage- is crispy chicken thighs with Korean barbecue, pickled carrots, scallions, sesame seeds, cilantro, and buttermilk ranch. Hands-down, my favorite, but the harissa honey carrots came in right under that! We also tried a tomato pesto pizza. The crust was crispy, but some of the other appetizers had such great flavors that it didn't stand out. Some of the entrées that were ordered were the spicy chicken sandwich, smoked short rib, Thai, Ramen, harvest, ravioli, and honey walnut salmon. All got great reviews and were enjoyed. For desserts, the Mexican hot chocolate brownie stood out as did the different Fox Meadows ice creams. Our server was very attentive. We appreciated her, anticipating our needs. The upstairs area was a bit loud as we were seated next to the railing which looked over the first floor and across from the bar. We enjoyed our evening and hope to be back soon!

    Well we are back. I just got back after a year deployed to Africa. This is our first time since grand opening night. The menu is completely different. No more turtle wings. Our server Jennifer was very nice. Nice cocktails and beers brewed by Millworks. Upstairs and downstairs bar. Seating inside and outside. We started with deviled eggs. Yum. I got a roast chicken thigh and it was very good. My wife got a burger. We also ordered the karaage. Really good. Finished with the earl grey cheesecake. It was ok. But I was full. Will go back.

    Watershed was actually pretty awesome. Picked this restaurant thinking it would just be basic and generic, but wow food was phenomenal. Beet salad didn't have many beets, but the dressing was delicious. Portobello sandwich had a wonderful Smokey taste that added to the flavor palette. Staff was friendly and Hannah was a great waitress. Definitely recommend this place, and will return when I visit again.

    Delicious Brunch! Make a reservation ahead of time if you want to sit outside. Beautiful deck area. We came in as a walk in and were seated immediately inside. Drinks and food were fantastic. Truffle fries a must order! Theres something on the menu for everyone. Parking lot next to the restaurant or street parking.

    Chicken & Waffles
    John G.

    A little disappointed this time! We ordered the Chicken and Waffles and the Apple Dulce Waffle. My wife had a Mimosa and I had Coffee. The food was great tasting and the plateing was very nice unfortunately the temperature of the waffles was non- existent. My wife's chicken also wasn't even Luke warm. I am trying to be really fair with this review because other experiences have been outstanding at this establishment. We did bring this to the attention of our server MJ who I must say did an excellent job even while waiting on several other patrons. He also offered to have our meals replaced but we were traveling and were behind schedule and the meals already to longer than expected to come out about 20-30 minutes. My rating for food temperature would typically drop this review about 2 points and the fact that MJ suggested taking and replacing the meals would up it a half that being said I did round up because they discounted the meal. A disappointing visit is not a reason to not return because the record of this establishment speaks for itself it is usually a 5 star.

    Pulled chicken sandwich
    Steven B.

    First, everyone was very friendly and it is a great atmosphere. The pulled chicken sandwich had a ton of flavor and loved the spicy acidity. The smoked hummus was very yummy, maybe a little too much smoke, but the chili crisp brought a nice element. The bartender made a killer sushi9 martini, you could taste every piece of the sushi roll.

A summer morning where Mom drives you to McDonalds to enjoy the play place with all of your friends until lunch arrives. And today you're just old enough to get the "big boy" meal. A full burger, two patties, with cheese, pickles, lettuce, onion, and some magical sauce that will have you chasing the dragon for the rest of your life. I am overjoyed to get a sliver of that happiness back again. Thanks to the cook!

    I want to preface this with saying that this place used to be great. They had a seasonal menu…read more(still do) but almost anything you could order was really flavorful and yummy. We used to take the kids here, there was something for everybody and a fun atmosphere. Fast forward a few years and this place has really gone downhill. Three staff was all very young and seemed to be in a rush. OK - we can deal with that, although it wasn't even as crowded as usual on a Sunday night. We ordered the Nashville hot chicken sandwich (which was listed under handhelds), with the "chilli mango coleslaw" option. We also had a pork belly sandwich and smash burger for our toddler. We weren't given an option to get that medium and wete told "it just comes one way" "because it's smashed". Other restaurants always ask you how you want your burgers even if it's listed as a smash but ok - I can also live with this. The last thing we ordered we a Buffalo chicken wedge salad to share. It ended up being our undoing for the evening and the straw that broke the camels back. The "Nashville" chicken sandwich was a greasy, thin slice of completely unseasoned chicken. It wasn't spicy like it said, it was pretty soft and soggy instead of crunchy, and was totally unsalted. It was worse than when I was doing no salt from a high bp diet post partum. :( the bread fell apart and was sopping wet... I guess from some pickles and lettuce on the bottom of the sandwich? It was anything but handheld and so I ended up just scraping what chicken off I could and leaving the rest. My "chili mango" coleslaw had no mango, no spice, and was just regular plain, unsalted cole slaw. I recieved 2 teaspoons of this in a plastic cup on the side and regretted not ordering the fries instead, which looked to be a good portion size on my husbands entreé. My food order was terrible overall. 0/10 My husband said he liked his sandwich. The fries were a 6/10 because they were crunchy but they were cold. Our kids menu smash burger was all grease, and came well done. Our kid ate a few fries and they were less greasy. 3/10 The worst part of the meal was the salad... The Buffalo chicken was tasty, but the whole salad was onions and sopping in dressing. We then found a black molded rotten tomato and honestly we were sick to our stomachs after that. Like I was insisting the salad at that point and ended up finding that but what else did we already eat that was just totally rotten ?? 2/10 only for the chicken salvaging the flavor for this dish. When we told the waitress that this was distressing, like we came out to get our of the house with our baby and this was the meal (so disappointing) she did not automatically offer to take the rotten salad off the bill. We asked her to please remove it, and to her credit she did so after putting us in an awkward position to have to ask at all. We liked that this place supports local artists. For that, 2 stars For these reasons though above we will not be back here for dinner. Sorry Evergrain, we will miss you!

The reason I haven't been going for the past three years is that the last time we ordered a Reuben, it was the most disgusting sandwich I'd ever received. The meat tasted terrible, and the color was "off." The time before that the Blarney bread was undercooked and had so much mayonnaise on it that it was inedible. Two weeks ago, it was undercooked and cold in the middle. The more well-done pieces I was able to eat, but the little pieces I could not. The following week, we decided to try the newly opened section on the corner inside the old Arooga's. Two bartenders working, the bar was not that busy but one of the bartenders closest to us didn't even acknowledge or let us know that she'd be right with us. It took the other very attentive and excellent bartender at the other end of the bar to notice my eyes looking around for some help when she came over to take care of us. She was great! The petite blonde was absolutely the worst and I wish I knew her name so I could call her out in this review. I used to love this place and my previous review is five stars. It's definitely not the same as it was before so I'm not sure we will be visiting this establishment again.
