    We had three very good meals. The portions were more than ample if not a bit overpriced. Since we live in Trilogy, we eat here fairly often. While the Foundry has had some serious management changes in and outside the kitchen, it was not noticeable during our meal. We had an exceptional server, Noah, whose attention to details at our table was admirable. I am a soup person so I regularly order soup with my meal. Unfortunately, I felt $9 for a cup (not a bowl) of soup was excessive and my biggest complaint is that the soup was not served piping hot . I have mentioned this problem before and was assured it would be fixed. Unfortunately this was not the case once again.
    The Foundry at Trilogy® Lake NormanResponded on 9 December 2024
    We are so sorry to hear about the soup issue Harold. We have been trying to keep it hotter without burning it and giving it the burnt taste. We do appreciate you coming in and supporting us as you do. We are building a strong team and together we will be stronger. Noah is actually our F&B Manager, he was serving tables for one of our servers as a reward. Thank you for coming and we can't wait to see you again. Sincerely, Bobbi Christopher F&B Supervisor

    The restaurant was quiet but it took more than 15 minutes for our wine and beer to come. When we asked, we were told that the bartender was busy filling orders at the bar. When we needed something during the meal, our waiter was nowhere to be seen.
