    Very trendy atmosphere and good food! Quite an intriguing take on the deviled eggs as well.

    The best pub food we have ever enjoyed and in a clean, comfortable and well lighted, woody, modern setting. Their pork shank was beautifully plated, swimming in cheesy grits and tender to the point of not requiring a knife, perfectly spiced and prepared. We split a large side order of mashed potatoes as appetizer which was cheesy, creamy excellence. Their eight ounce filet was likewise perfectly prepared and delightful. A pleasing wine list includes The Federalist red on tap and splits of a wondrous French sparkler! Our waitresses always have been superb during many previous outdoor visits and yesterday for our first indoor experience. By far our favorite restaurant. We gladly drive for about an hour specifically to visit Maevery.

    My fiance's family and I went to meet her sisters boyfriends family here and we had a decent sized area set up side for us. Upon walking in the area isn't too bad, however I noticed it is quite crowded. Conversations are right next to you and there isn't much personal space. We started off with artichoke dip which was really good, however the pita chips were like stale pita bread that had been left out for a week. We then moved to getting a burger which I got medium rare. It was too rare and ended up falling apart and ripping, there was also no sear at all with minimum flavor. Her sister got chicken and waffles with a side of bacon and it came out very dry and overcooked on some parts as if it had been in a warmer. Their house made ketchup is mid at best and overall the experience in terms of food was not something worth writing home to. Lastly, the service. The lady we had was showing visible signs of holding back from the annoyance of the requests I had given. My fiance is pregnant and requires certain things and also to have things not be around her. Overall this was an unenjoyable experience, for literally the entire group. Most people didn't even touch their food after a bite. We will not be back. That being said, the orange juice isn't bad.

    Here for a Navy graduation & made an impromptu stop after receiving a recommendation from a previous employee. So glad we came by Laura M. and her colleagues were so warm her menu recommendations were spot on delicious😋. Also received info about the block parties and other events around town. Will definitely return!

    We picked Maevery last minute for our son's navy graduation dinner and it didn't dissapoint. They accommodated a last minute reservation and put us in a corner great table for easy catching up. Service was great (which we didn't experience in multiple fine dining restaurants downtown) and food was yummy and a good selection. .. they had awesome recommendations and treated us wonderfully! Didn't rush us and from 5-6pm we nearly had the place to ourselves before the dinner rush! Highly recommended by this out of town visiting family! Thank You (from Southern CA) We will be back if we are in Chicago again!

    The food was amazing and on point The atmosphere is OK not really good acoustics but there is a cute little lounge area outdoor seating and cute general dining area. The service could be better. They brought the wrong substitute that I requested. The service was slow then me and my friend was sitting to wait to pay Hard to enjoy food, it was a stubborn fly that kept buzzing around. Tons of flies, which made it very difficult to enjoy the food I had to continually swat, flies away I partially recommend this location based on the service however, I enjoy the experience, and I would NOT go back

    Best food I’ve had in this area, but definitely hit or miss on some items. The gnocchi is the reason for the 4 stars. Add the sausage and it’s wonderful! Tried it with chicken too, but the chicken didn’t have any seasoning. The saffron shrimp is very bland with no flavor. The Brussels sprouts were good enough for me to order twice, but the second time it didn’t live up to my standards. Tuna tartare is awful- wouldn’t recommend.

    The atmosphere of the restaurant is cozy, lively, and aesthetically pleasing. The food is really tasty especially the fish and chips and the Berkshire pork shank. The brunch is also delicious and the mimosas are well made. There is a good selection of cocktails and overall they are pretty good. However, for the price I was left wanting. Most of the time I have had great experience with the staff being attentive, helpful, and friendly. The community it is located in is beautiful and has a wonderful park right across from the restaurant where events and folk can always be found enjoying the space.

    The cocktails were really good. However the food was a big minus for me. I ordered the burger and cajun fries and to be honest the burger seemed like there was zero seasoning. No salt or pepper or anything. Asked for cajun fries and it came out with flaky salt, hardly any spice. Service was still good, the waitress was very attentive but it all felt rushed and scattered. I'd come back to have a drink at the bar because the cocktails are that good, but the food for the price seriously needs to be elevated. 18 bucks for a unseasoned beef patty is too much for anyone.

    Was in town for a weekend and stopped by for a meal at the bar. Had a tasty stuffed pork special with a great old fashioned at the bar. The staff was super friendly and the place was cozy. I liked it so much I made sure to come back with my family before I left just two days later! Awesome place, great food, great service, really friendly place. I’d highly recommend it!

    The restaurant is small and very noisy. To be fair it was a Friday evening but the noise level was so much we could barely hear each other talk. The ambiance was nice and lively. I was very worried as a WOC but the staff was friendly and personable. The artichoke dip and pita chips amazing. The deviled eggs, not so good. Tasted very tart and vinegary. The dish I ordered was not what I was expecting. The flavor was very much lacking but the server offered to bring me something else which I was grateful for. It was the burger and fries. I’m not a beef person at all but this burger was absolutely delicious, juicy and seasoned well. The menu leaves a bit to be desired for me though. Seemed too fancy. I just have simple tastes and that’s ok too.
