Ordered two burgers during dinner time but they were getting cold and dry when finally on the table. Obviously they were done and stay someplace for a while. Don’t think this is what a nice restaurant would do.
Well I don't even know what to say, except all 3 of our MINDS ARE OFFICIALLY BLOWN! Today was our first time here. The flavors, the tastes, the aromas, the textures, the shapes, the crew, the presentation, the prices, the environment! How does one even begin to describe, the extreme pleasure of the exquisitely prepared food here? One doesn't describe it! SO, get yer doggone selves over here & support local, support quality and support your deserving palate! I have one word: Phenomenal ♡
Nicely decorated brew pub near the U of O campus. Friendly service. We had the catfish po boy with fried pickles and the Nashville hot chicken sandwich with fries. Both were excellent. Be warned, though, the chicken is hot, hot, hot! The beers were good too.
Have driven by this establishment numerous times but every time my husband and I go out to eat it just falls off my radar. As I've stated before in another review my MIL is part of the foodies group on Facebook and she saw a few posts where this establishment was being recommended. So one day my husband, MIL, and me decided to eat here.Menus are available at the front upon entry and you choose where you want to sit. There is seating inside and outside. No smoking inside or outside, which we appreciated very much. Upon sitting after looking over the menu you head back inside to place your order at the counter. They have a taplist, cocktail list, and whiskey list as well as other options that are non-alcoholic. We just chose water and there is a self serve water station inside.After looking over the menu, everything literally sounds amazing but I had never had a Reuben before, always wanted to try but never did. Elkhorn's Brewhaus Reuben is mouth watering goodness. House smoked and cured pastrami on toasted caraway bread, with melted Swiss, remoulade, and purple stout kraut with a side of smoked pickles. All burgers and sandwiches are served with house chips but I wanted fries which is an upcharge of $2. For sauce I got ranch and I don't know what they put in it, but I want a bottle of it, it's amazing! My MIL got a side of their stout BBQ sauce and it's amazing too, reminded me of my father's homemade BBQ sauce.Please come here; bring your family, kids, friends, a date, or yourself. Great service and amazing food that will leave you full and satisfied.
The Elk Horn has a really good Catfish sandwich!! Great atmosphere in side, really a fun place to go with friends.
We arrived at 7p on a Saturday and even though they were only about half full, they said it would be 35 a minute wait for food. As we discussed whether to go elsewhere, a family of 4 came in and placed orders, and that sent our wait time to 1 hour. We decided to stay and wait it out, not realizing that it would actually be 90 (NINETY) minutes, for burgers, in a place that was not full. Definitely the most inexplicably long wait for food I have experienced outside of New Orleans during Jazz Fest. They do have a lot of games and tv's to keep you occupied, the food is ok once it arrives, and the beer is very good. If you are a UO parent visiting your child and want to spend the maximum amount of time with them, I would recommend bringing them here. Otherwise, just no.
First time ordering, tried the gumbo, red beans and rice, slider trio with dirty fries and catfish po'boy with fried okra. Really enjoyed everything. Happy to find some good Cajun food mixed in with other offerings. Will be back.
This place has so much potential! I looks really cool on the outside and the inside is almost just as cool. A few things were bad though.The staff was really nice and explained what to do when we got in. Take a menu, find a seat, come to the window to order. Most of the menus I picked up were filthy, so I settled for the best I could find.The ordering process was smooth and they gave good beer samples to help me select. However, after ordering we waited probably 30 minutes to get the food. Enough time to play some phone games lol. We were a group of two with only another group of 4 who hadn't ordered food yet.As we waited, we enjoyed the music and vibes in the space. The game shelf and arcade games seemed a bit of an eye sore, but I'm sure the owner gets some players in order to make enough money to incentivise keeping them. As we were listening to music, the audio suddenly changed to very loud football color commentary. Unnecessarily loud for probably the 1 person who wanted to watch in the restaurant at that moment (a worker?). We had to talk very loudly to hear each other. I didn't care about the game so it was pretty annoying lol. Those who want to watch should be able to by watching it muted with subtitles. That's what most places do. Again, that's just my preference.When we got our food, it was all cold to the touch. Burgers, cold. Fries, cold. Chips, cold (you'd think fresh house made chips would be warm). I assume it took 30 minutes to get our food to help let our food cool down. Unfortunately, I like my food warm.The elk burger I got was also pretty pink. I don't mind, but when the menu says medium rare, I don't want rare. In their defense, it was only half the burger (which I'm not sure how that is possible).We also had no napkins and no water. The water was probably my fault as I ordered beer at the counter. You'd think they'd ask if they saw someone at the table without a drink as they drop off the food though. Getting a water and napkins meant I had to stand in line for 10 minutes in line (now long) for simple items. Most breweries where you get up and order at the counter have big water jug to help ourselves. Sometimes napkins are out as well. Just some little things.All-in-all, this could be a fantastic place. I probably won't be returning unless it's a good daily deal and the food is warm!
There was a line with some folks taking forever to order their food. Tara from behind the counter asked me if I was waiting to order. I said yes and she said I can take your order at the other register. She helped me with my drink order and made time to share the special they had going on for their brews. Sounded like a great deal and I was pleased. This place has a great comfortable feel and will definitely be back. Thanks for the recommendation Tara.
Amazing food! Great atmosphere! It was our first time and a young lady Cora assisted us. She had the most incredible kindness and customer service!! So down to earth. Because of her we will be back!
