    Beckley Brewhouse

    • Food: 3/5

    In the year since I wrote my last review of this place, they've added a veggie and black bean patty to the menu. However, the service tonight just went another notch down.

    Between the main server being slow to even acknowledge me sitting at a booth waiting for a menu and the other servers being so caught up in bar conversation they, too, were slow to respond, I already knew what this experience was going to be like. To sum up, the food was decent, but my server was barely cordial. I doubt I'll return after this. Too many other choices in the Cliff now serving similar or better food to go through that level of service again.

    Five Guys Burgers and Fries

    This joint is new, and with any new place there are kinks to be worked out. Overall the people are friendly and the place is clean.

    Being a veggie, I had the veggie sandwich, which is basically the "fixins" of their burgers without the meat. Now while they brag on how fresh their beef is, you would think they'd apply that same freshness to their mushrooms. The mushrooms on my burger looked and tasted like they came from a can. I believe we can do better than that. So, if you do the veggie sandwich, skip the mushrooms. For $2.69 plus tax, you still get a decent sandwich.

    The natural-cut fries are good, salty, but good. If you do the cajun seasoned fries, prepare for next-level saltiness!

    Always great to have the vegetarian migas or the angel hair pasta with veggies and feta cheese. Yum-ness!

    While it's a splurge to have the pizza here because of the dough (read=$$$), extra cheese with red onion and feta just tastes so much better here.

    Christin and I ate there last night and it's soooo good to be able to eat anything on the menu. She and the taco salad and I had the "Big Taquito". Deliciousness all around.
