    The absolute best service was on display at this restaurant. Our waiter, Jules, could not have been more friendly, more courteous, more engaged or nicer This is 5 star service and would be the reason we keep going back. Jules is a treasure at The Local.

    We attended as a group of 10 on Sunday afternoon. The service was good and the food was excellent. Some ordered sliders, eggplant parmigiana, pasta Alfredo, salmon, tacos, and the meat lovers flatbread. To the person, we all said our food was delicious. I can speak for the salmon dish which I requested be cooked medium. It was perfectly cooked and flavorful. The risotto was cooked deliciously and the carrots and asparagus were good too. The sangrias and sours we got were really good too. We were surprised to see that they serve BRUNCH from 10-2 because there’s no mention of it on their website. We all looked over the BRUNCH menu and can’t wait to enjoy that. The selections sound mouth-watering. (Not sure if it’s just Sunday Brunch or Daily Brunch). Overall we would come to this place again and again and again because of the great food, ambience including the fact that the place was nicely decorated inside and out and looked and felt very clean (including the restrooms), and prices. Don’t overthink this place. Just GO!

    Great service. Good selection of beverages. We shared the calamari and carnivore flatbread. Good portions and very tasty. Trivia night was just starting when we were leaving and it seems to be a popular event as a number of people came in just for the trivia.

    Went on a Friday evening. Enjoyed wine and an appetizer of Roasted Brussels Sprouts which was outstanding. Moved on to main courses of salad with steak - both were very tasty. Dessert of chocolate cake concluded a lovely meal. Service was exceptional, they even made sure we knew Happy Hour was ending so could refresh our glasses at the lower rate. We will return.

    Was not impressed with our evening after inviting friends to join us. Started out asking questions about the wine. The male server was not very knowledgeable about the wine, either red or white. I was asking if they had any white wine bottled in stainless steel. He thought I meant served in a stainless steel glass. I explained, no it’s the bottling process & it’s not contained in oak. He indicated he had never heard that before. I asked him to check with the manager about my request. His answer, no one will know the answer. Our guests asked questions about different reds, again not real knowledgeable. Two guests had the the prosciutto fig pizza which was over done with the fig jam. One guest had the nachos, they were just ok. Service was slow & we heard others complaining as well. Will not go back!

    Another great night at The Local. We had the Ahi Poke Stack & Tuscan Flatbread. And, of course, wine! All were delicious. Tonight was Trivia night. We didn’t officially play, but it was still tons of fun!
