   Excellent food, everything we had was delicious. Very nice place, parking can be a bit tough as their lot is very small but there is street parking available. We were there for a Friday lunch and they were very busy with lots waiting for tables. So reservations a must.

   Great night! Kayla and Lauren got us set up with Keith. It was a great night with wonderful food, fun, and fellowship. Keith was outstanding, always giving us our weekly dad-joke to start the night off great. Grateful for how The Block treats all their guests!

   Service was excellent and the broasted chicken was delicious. I had a lemon drop martini that was perfectly made. Not too sweet and not too tart.

   Kayla was able to turn our table for 4 into a booth for 6. Thank you so much for making that change at the last minute! Due to that change, the 6 of us enjoyed a night of great food and fun trivia! We heard grumblings that the teriyaki green beans are going away, which saddens us yet the idea of new items coming intrigues us! Always fun to see and try the new ideas The Block puts together. Thank you to Keith for once again being an awesome server and an amazing person. You guys at the Block continue to give us our own version of the tv show Cheers. "Sometimes you wanna go where everyone knows your name, and they're always glad you came..."

   Mike, thank you so much for your continued support and for sharing your experience! We're glad Kayla could make that last-minute switch so you could all enjoy a fun night of great food and trivia. We’ll pass your kind words to Keith—he’ll love hearing them! As for the teriyaki green beans, we know change can be bittersweet, but we’re excited for you to try what’s next. It means so much that The Block feels like your own Cheers—we always love having you here! See you again soon! -The Block Crew

   Love the “Pawtio”. Food was good a”and reasonably priced. Our server could have checked on us more often, I needed a refill on my pop but she wasn’t available. Other staff were very friendly and fawned over the dogs, which always makes a good impression.

   Another great night. Keith was a superstar once again. Always fun, helpful, attentive, and kind. We love the teriyaki green beans, as they are such a great appetizer to start the night. Thank you to all the folks in the front and in the back for providing another amazing night!
