Where
do
we
begin?!
The
warm
and
welcoming
greetings
with
staff
and
the
host
into
the
comfortably-lit
and
spacious
dining
room!
We
have
children
and
love
to
have
an
option
to
sit
with
other
families
so
we
don't
disturb
guests
who
may
not
appreciate
the
noise
of
young
ones
dining.
The
atmosphere
is
perfectly
approachable
with
a
comfy
flare
of
elevation
and
big
city
hip
vibes.
You
can
really
tell
the
level
care
and
management
in
a
restaurant
based
on
the
movements
and
attitudes
during
bustling
hours
on
a
Saturday
night.
Our
server,
Kristen,
was
a
class
act,
there
with
us
start
to
finish,
appropriately
attentive
as
could
be
at
the
perfect
timing.
On
point
with
suggestions,
helping
to
orchestrate
the
small
but
important
details
for
us
to
enjoy
our
first
experience
with
Local.
Great
smile,
authentic
attitude
and
super
efficient
and
proficient
in
the
details
of
their
menu.
All
other
servers
seemed
calm
and
confident
with
approach
to
a
busy
night.
They
all
help
each
other
and
visit
the
tables
with
smiles
and
genuine
care.
We
even
had
quick
visits
to
ensure
our
enjoyment
from
the
managers
and
chef.
Local
has
a
menu
that
can
please
any
taste.
It's
the
opposite
of
boring.
But
mostly
importantly,
their
execution
exceeds
the
expectations
of
the
words
typed
out
on
the
menu.
Unfortunately
in
such
a
tough
industry,
especially
in
"post
pandemic"
times,
the
food
falls
short
of
a
once-known
standard.
Not
Local!
It
was
a
breath
of
fresh
air,
truly,
to
be
able
to
order
inventive
dishes
that
come
out
with
evident
care
for
quality
in
mind.
Based
on
the
variety
of
food
we
ordered
last
night,
you
can
put
your
trust
in
their
menu
for
being
fine-tuned
for
a
deliverance
of
high
caliber
of
flavor,
freshness,
value.
For
appetizers,
my
party
enjoyed
the
crab
cakes
that
were
packed
with
huge
chunks
of
crab
meat
and
a
scrumptious
lemon
aioli
alongside,
as
well
as
the
tofu
and
pork
tacos
that
were
assembled
with
such
care
and
detail,
maximizing
balance
of
flavor
and
texture,
including
the
crunch
of
perfectly
pickled
red
onion
and
jalapeño
and
and
the
creaminess
of
avocado.
The
tofu
was
bonkers
and
loaded
with
flavor!
For
meals,
we
enjoyed
their
special
of
local
Mahi
over
rice
pilaf
with
crispy
fried
Brussel
sprouts,
an
oyster
basket,
the
fried
chicken
dinner,
the
hot
chicken
sandwich,
and
a
Mediterranean
salad
with
blackened
chicken.
Just
to
name
a
few
small
but
awesome
details-
the
crispiness
of
the
delicious
exterior
of
the
fried
oysters
and
fried
chicken
while
being
perfectly
cooked
on
the
inside,
the
perfectly
cooked
FRESH
local
Mahi
that
was
seasoned
to
perfection,
the
thin,
homemade
fry,
the
celery
seed
and
perfect
balance
of
tang
and
creaminess
in
a
bangin'
coleslaw,
the
freshness
and
variety
greens
in
the
cold
Mediterranean
salad
with
appropriate
amounts
and
placement
of
crunchy,
fresh
veggies,
topped
with
a
hot,
heaping
pile
of
perfectly-
cooked,
juicy
chicken
breast.
Then,
the
desserts-
a
fresh
berry
skillet
cobbler
with
crumbly
crunch,
perfectly
sweetened,
served
with
a
giant
scoop
of
vanilla
ice
cream,
their
chocolate
peanut
butter
pie
with
hints
of
bourbon
(looks
like
it
belongs
on
the
front
of
a
food
magazine)
and
lastly,
a
gluten-free
chocolate
torte
that
will
leave
you
rolling
your
eyes
back
into
your
head
and
needing
a
cigarette
afterwards.
All
with
a
wicked
local
beer
selection,
inventive
cocktails
and
really
nice
wine
list
covering
many
price
points
and
tastes.
Our
experience
with
Local
was
beyond
lovely
and
comfortable.
We
love
their
mission!
Simply
put,
they
serve
phenomenal
food
in
an
atmosphere
that
welcomes
all!
Go
try
this
gem
of
a
restaurant!
