    Sweet & Spicy Mushroom Burger.  Normally comes with fries, but I opted for a side salad (not shown) instead.
    Leo G.

    Was a Sunday afternoon for lunch, so keep that in mind. Great food (and you best bring a healthy appetite, because there's plenty of it), classy place, fairly dim with good but not overpowering music. AMAZING service from Allison. Would make a great place for a date night! NOTE: Listed hours for Sunday are a bit off. "noonish to 10-ish PM"

    Bacon Cheese Burger on Crack

    Managed to get back to Chow a year later. Burgers are still phenomenal. Had the PB&J and the Bacon Cheeseburger on Crack. This place is well worth the stop.

    Really tasty burger and tots! The place is inviting and friendly staff. Almost a little overly intrusive if you want a quite dinner, but honestly, it's more of a "here everyone knows your name" feel type of place. I can't remember the burger I got, but my friend got the one with peanut butter. We both really felt like they were huge, and quality. We both agreed that there was too much cumin in the onion jam. We will probably ask for that on the side next time as it was a little over powering. The truffle tots were perfectly crisp! Next time we come we will share because portions are gigantic. Yumm! We'll be back!

    Black and blue burger. With extra crispy Cajun tots

    Great burgers, nice staff, reasonably priced drinks from a full bar! We loved the truffle seasoning on the tots!!

    Challenge excepted

    My wife and I just ate here on our date night and I thought it was review worthy. The food was delicious. The slow cook there bacon in a brown sugar glaze that turns it into some sort of all American candy. She had a burger with mushrooms in it and loved it. We also got appetizers-the blue cheese fries which had an awesome cheddar cheese sauce and bits of that bacon candy and- deepfried avacodos that were pretty good too. I got the wolverine#5 burger and it was awesome but HUGE! Probably would have taken a lot of it home but the owner apparently has a challenge where he has anyone who can finish it sign his bar with a sharpie soooo. Yeah I apparently had a 4lb dinner tonight, can't pass up a challenge like that. Must stop for anyone who's hungry trust me!!!

    Chelsea MAC and Cheese with Shrimp! HOLY CHOW!!!!!!!!!! My God, my mouth had a food orgasm. I'm not one to do Yelp reviews BUT this place and this dish was so effin deserving of my review! I was passing by after a long day of driving and Chows was the only place open. They sat me down 15 minutes before the last call and the waiter still took his time to explain the daily specials and I never felt rushed. I would highly recommend this place to anyone and if you live here then I'm jealous that you have a hidden gem!

However we tried to go a couple times during the remodel, and it seemed like it was always being pushed back. In fact, I told my husband if they weren't open now, I was never coming back, as I was tired of trying to find plan b for dinner when they were closed. I'm glad we found them to be open today. We went in around 6-ish in the evening. There weren't very many people in there and we were greeted immediately, which was fine. We wandered around, as there are two sides to the restaurant. It's not terribly exciting in terms of decorations. It doesn't lend itself to the Simpson's reference of Moe's Tavern. Which would be the precise reason my husband wanted to go in here, and made a reference to it when he checked in on Facebook. Our waitress was Chelsea, and she was such a sweetheart. My one annoyance was the menu is incredibly small print, and very hard to read. I need to remember to bring my glasses the next time I come in. I ended up with a headache due to trying to read the menu without much success. Luckily, the chef, Ted, let me use his. Which helped significantly, and I was finally able to pick something I actually wanted off the menu, instead of a basic burger. We started with the zucchini fries, which were delicious. I loved the breading on them. It was solid, and didn't fall apart. My husband wants to try the hellfries the next time we go in. I had the mushroom burger and my husband had the fondue stacker. I had tater tots and my husband had fries and we had garlic and Parmesan added to both. My husband loved his burger, and I definitely enjoyed mine. Both were ordered medium rare, and it was a gorgeous bright red in the middle. One of the things I love is they buy their meat from Bright Oak Meats, which is a local butcher shop, just a few blocks from the bar. I love supporting a small local business that works exclusively with other small local businesses. Perfect combination, if you ask me. This also enables us to order our burgers cooked to any temperature we want. I absolutely despise when I have to have a burger done to anything past medium rare. Here, medium rare is their standard, Which they tell you when ordering. I would definitely recommend stopping in here. It's very meat-heavy, like burgers with copious amounts of bacon. If you love your bacon, this is THE perfect place for you! My husband was wearing his "I love bacon" shirt when we went in, not knowing just how appropriate it was. Lol. I was thrilled I found a cute local business to get behind, that supports other well-known local businesses and makes the perfect medium-rare burger. I am sooooo glad that I ignored all the negative reviews from this place. It's definitely a go-to now for my husband and I! Review 86 of 2017.

It's less than 1% of the places I visit that are true beer clean glassware astute. There are many that do a good job, but when you see the lacing on glassware that I saw tonight, you know you're in rarified air. FOOD: ok I know most people don't need out over glassware the way I do so let's discuss the food - I went more unique with a lamb sausage and a boar sausage, plus my new friends next to me shared their fries. My opinion? Awesome. Well executed sausage, the fries were really good - crisp on the outside and still perfect potato texture inside while being hot with a fry sauce side that perfectly complemented Service was great, met regulars, had tasty food - but the whale in this adventure was the care for the glassware. This is special - the owner truly cares about your experience when they nail the small details a lot of folks miss. I didn't miss this detail because it's massive in the nuance on your beer but takes special care and pride to get right. Bangers takes pride in giving you a beer in a properly maintained glass, and that's uniquely special. Applause to Bangers for attention to detail!

Great place to grab a drink and hang out, just be prepared for slightly higher food prices.

I had the Marry Me chicken meal, which had a delightful cream sauce with spinach, broccolini squash, and sun-dried tomatoes. The cream sauce was deliciously sweet and the chicken was as tender as I've had in almost forever. I also had a green salad with blue cheese dressing, which was very nice. A couple of my friends had cocktails and they thought they were very good. Other meals to my friends included the Poutine Fries; The breaded pork chop (schnitzel) and the shrimp pasta. One person had the hard cider and enjoyed that, and then of course, at the end of the meal, they have these delicious little chocolates two of us had them and one person had the chocolate pot re crème. All of us loved every bite. And they have done away with including the tip for the meal. Our server, Ross, managed five gabby women, each wanting a separate check, with aplomb, grace and kindness.

I've lived here for around 5 years, and another 15 years up in Salem and this little restaurant is a gem in every respect. I've been to Rye at least 4 times since moving here. I had heard about it from friends and so my partner and I first tried it out and were highly impressed with the food, the servce and the ambiance. The menu is just a bit limited but between the specials and the menu offerings, there was plenty to choose from. Above all, what they do, they do very well. I and my partner ate at Rye three nights ago and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience in every way. AMBIENCE... The dining room is terrific. Lots of dark wood. The lighting of the room is especially conducive to privacy but not isolation. Inasmuch as it was raining to beat the band when we arrived, entering felt like a welcoming respite. The patrons' chatter was subdued but clearly they were having a great time. FOOD... We ordered cocktails (I enjoyed a Cocchi Rye whiskey cocktail which was delicious. The French onion soup I ordered was also very tasty and loaded with mozzarella atop the cup. I then dived into a "special" plate of a Chinook salmon fillet, finished perfectly and sitting on a bed or pureed squash. Excellent, I thought. Afterwards, we shared some sort of fruity pastry, sharing with two forks. SERVICE... From where I sat I could watch the bar activity, even the service window into the kitchen allowed me to watch all the activity. Our server was very efficient and cheerful and engaging without being overbearing in any way. AFTERTHOUGHTS: I will be coming back, of course. Rye is where you want to go to have a very good time eating out. You're not going to spend an arm and a leg to eat there but Rye is definitely not Denny's. I think this was my fourth trip there and all four times I felt thoroughly satisfied in every way.
