"A good place is defined by it's ambience, people and their food.And this place offers you all the at it's best.We had to wait close to mins for a nice table fit for the of us.FOOD food was really good. They know how to cook their meats well. The sauces used were perfect.MUST TRYs br/>NY Style Beef SteakFish ChipsMexican SaladBlack Bean BurgerShrimp TacosBEER/Drinks many beer options. This place is a treat for Beer lovers.I love fruity ale beers. I loved Allagash, Blackberry and Pear Lager Beer of all the beers we tried.AMBIENCE ambience. It's amusing to see the range of beer taps serving fresh beers of different brands on each tap lined up behind the bar. The place is low lit, and creates a calm ambience for itself. This place is mostly buzzing with people all day. They also have a Game section in the basement and a Music section where you would find bands playing some exciting music.SERVICE the place was crowded it took a while for the staff to attend us. But, once the orders were taken, the staff was very polite and on her toes. She was patient enough to give us all options basis our palate requirements and served us with the right food and beverages. The staff here hence needs a special mention.VALUE FOR MONEY not cheap, yet not too expensive. But, the huge list of Beers available here can tempt you into spending a lot.Come on here for a fun night with your friends for a great time.Happy Beer-hopping to You!!!"

"My first opportunity to try their food was a sampler platter from the Fairfax fall festival and the food then was a solid 4 stars. So when our dinner plans on Sunday we’re canceled the ale house was my immediate go to thinking we’d have decent quality food. However the food was unsatisfactory. We went around 6:30PM on Sunday and ordered a variety of dishes:Schnitzel crispy but dry/chewy meat the fall festival schnitzel was juicy and a good serving of pork)Golonkal lamb shank) was literally alamb shank on mashed potato, no sauce or beets. And meat was very chewy and dry, lots of gristle. We had to ask for some au jus.Burger and sweet potato fries Ok but literally gave like 10 fries so didn’t seem like enough food.Zurich Ragout with mushroom, spinach, onion spatzel was just bow tie pasta. Flavor was good and meat was juicy. Probably the best flavored dish of what we ordered.We had a dairy allergy so they served only the ragout without the pasta bc the pasta came prepared with butter I believe. They did provide it on the side when I asked but weren’t able to provide just noodles without butter. I’d think pretty easy to boil)Fish Tacos 4/10 on quality and taste.Sadly I don’t think we’ll be returning but hopefully given all their positive reviews it was just the chef that night.Server did his best to accommodate and food came out in a decent amount of time."
