Everything was wonderful, if there was one thing could use more choices of beer styles to chosee from for a flight. We enjoyed the food, atmosphere and beer we chose.

The only feedback we have is Facebook said you were featuring Flatrock Distillery drinks for Sunday brunch. We ask our server about this and he was unaware of the distillery offering. Furthermore he did not check into the availability after we ask him about it. Would have been good to have a sheet of paper or something about the distillery offering. We were in at 11 am to noon Sunday.

1st time patrons... Made a reservation weeks in advance only to arrive and the staff having no record of our existence. The only reason we were able to be seated was due to checking in under another name we just so happened to see on the wait list. Very chilly inside but the food was amazing! Only bummer was that you couldn't order drinks from the brewery while in the restaurant... that should be clearly stated on your website, especially for those who have never been. I think it would be a more successful business if all parts would collaborate as one.

I come twice a year when I'm in town to visit family. I keep waiting for the old, uncomfortable chairs to be repaired, reupholstered, or fixed. I've yet to sit on a comfortable seat in the restaurant. I get the vibe you're going for, but it's time to bring the seating back to life with a facelift. Additionally, I had an excellent mojito, however it was a tiny serving. My glass was filled to the rim with ice, leaving little room for the drink. The price didn't reflect the portion size. Your staff is great and I enjoy coming. Keep up the good work and kudos to you for looking for ways to keep improving. Best wishes for continued success!

Slightly disappointed by the food. I ordered the steak and it was VERY salty. My husband was disappointed with the portion size of the salmon. But it was a beautiful ambience and service was great.

A lot has changed since I was last here (I believe it was November) and it wasn't really for the better. Last time the food was divine, the best I've ever had, and the wine list was phenomenal. This time my salmon was undercooked and my partner's beef was undercooked. The menu changed to have a lot more options, but none of the original dishes. It's a lot more mainstream now (burgers/sandwiches) and they really downsized the wine list. There weren't any options from Italy anymore. The staff are extremely nice and they now have creme brulee which was really good. We will go again, but overall we'll have to reduce our expectations compared to our first experience.

Gave our appetizer to another table. Three pretzels appetizer option is redundant. Not much selection need to have a more in line priced steak, need fish, and pasta options. Steak option is $57 but other meal options are under $27. Are you guys a real high end restaurant or a high end restaurant. Need a steak option more at the $30 mark. Beer was phenomenal as I loved the amber ale and porter. At this point FJ is a place I would only visit about 1 time a year other than just coming for the beer. Please adjust the menu as we would like to come here more and we love to support local.
