    Morning Glory Pizza
    Tia R.

    Service was a little slow but the waiter was attentive and helpful. The inside is very modern and the booth where we sat was near the patio. The patio looks like it would be nice on a warm day but today was to cold. The parking lot was full due to construction so it took a while to find a spot. I tried the shrimp and grits, man mosa, ice toddy, chicken fingers, morning glory pizza, and the ice tea. I recommend the drinks, morning glory pizza (with pepper and salt) , and chicken fingers. As for the shrimp it came out overcooked. The sauce was great and the grits, not as creamy as I wanted them to be. Ranch sauce is also a nice touch and I was thankful to the waiter who gave my daughter options without being asked too. I don't know if I would come back but this wasn't bad. I'm just not sure what I'm interested in trying next.

    White Sangria
    Erica V.

    I was brought here on a lunch date and was not disappointed for a first try. Parking can be ehhh but we found a spot in the conjoining parking lot that could be validated for 2 hours. Warning, you must start the parking session and then get the code to comp. the time. Of course, I'm going to get straight into the drinks + food because that's what we are all here for! :) To start, drinks: White Sangria: 7/10 (not super potent but the flavor was nice, sweet, and almost creamy as if a nectar or natural purer was used) Rosemary Paloma: 2/10 (now this was strong which I don't mind, but there were no real notes of rosemary or grapefruit. Almost like a club soda) Georgia Peach Mojito: 6/10 Love that it was a natural peach flavor versus a thick syrupy additive but nothing special Now on to the food which was where they shined more in my option: 1. Sunday Breakfast Plate (scrambled eggs, breakfast potatoes, chicken sausage, and a biscuit): 7/10 2. Crispy Brussel Sprouts: 11/10 (THAT MISO SAUCE WAS PERFECT AND HAD SUCH A RICH UMAMI FLAVOR PROFILE) 3. French Fries and Housemade Ranch: 9/10 the ranch was stellar and so tangy 4. Red Fish Ala Plancha: 8/10 ( The fish and potatoes could have a bit more seasoning and I believe even doing it as a whole fish would add the flavor back in) 5. Fettuccini Alfredo w/ Fried Chicken: 7/10 (I love the texture of the noodles and the creaminess of the sauce but needed some seasoning. Also was a fan of the light breading on the chicken) All in all, will return to try more but seems a little seasoning might go a long way to make it a repeat in my arsenal. Hope to see you soon Howell!

    Mango Margarita(sans spicy) and Old Fashion
    Vena F.

    Stopped in on Saturday after a few hours at Bobby Jones. We must have been the first few customers for dinner service, we were seated quickly. Big shout out to Josh, our server-he is fantastic! So patient and considerate with our first time questions. Started w cocktails: Mango Margarita(sans spicy), and an Old Fashion. The smoked mozzarella sticks were a hit with our teen! The smash burger and tavern burger were also very good. BYO Pizza was decent, a lil pricey when you add up the $3 per item charges. Save room for the chocolate lava cake! So good, not overly sweet..perfect! We loved our first time experience and will be back to enjoy the spacious patio area.

    Pho egg rolls
    Jevons L.

    Great place to sit and eat dinner with friends! If you're in the mood for a classic North American gastropub environment with solid food this is the place for you, ample seating and good options. I liked the pho egg rolls! A different (larger) take on a classic spring roll. I also enjoyed the salmon here! Nice and tender, juicy, over a bed of curry-like sauce with veggies (to make you feel healthier)

    First time checking out Howell's Kitchen and Bar. We came for brunch to celebrate my mom. The interior is beautiful. Very spacious and open. Our server Dre was great. My family is full of talkers and Dre did a great job of popping in to be helpful while being respectful of our conversations. The food was really good. I enjoyed the hangover hash. Could've used a little ore flavor but it was still good. The espresso martini was great. The bread pudding with the ice cream was the highlight of the meal. Dense, moist and full of flavor.

    Bloody Mary!

    Clicker chicken was fantastic sandwich with good amount of slaw. Very important to me! We come to this place all the time and the service, food, ambiance is great. Outside courtyard area with fans and tvs is fantastic for summer time. The pizza is always hitting the spot I usually get that and this time we got calamari. I was very impressed- the batter or breading is crispy and cooked to perfection. They did change parking so you need to get it validated because it will cost a few dollars if you do not. They will give you a code at the hostess stand

    Philly cheesesteak pizza
    Timia W.

    I'm writing this review for the pizza and the pizza only!!! OMG the Philly cheesesteak pizza is the BEST pizza I've had probably in my life. The flavors were so unique (there's spicy mayo drizzled on top) and blended together so well. It was light and refreshing but still filling. Creamy as well. I had to go back 2 days later to have it again. This was a seasonal pizza but I pray to the Heavens above that they make this a regular menu item. The service was also great and I enjoyed the atmosphere in the building. Quiet and slightly cozy but still spacious.

    Tavern Burger
    Presley B.

    I went to Howell's for lunch while I was in town and had a great experience! I got the chicken cordon blue pizza which was on special, my sister got the herb grilled chicken, and my friend got the Tavern burger. All of the food was delicious and very well priced. The total for my meal after tax was $13, it is so rare to find a well portioned lunch for under twenty dollars. Additionally, our server was very attentive while not being overly imposing. I would highly recommend this place for a quiet, affordable lunch.

    Interior seating

    As we approached the restaurant, we noticed the parking lot was very small. Thankfully, they offer overflow parking nearby--located by the McDonald's and the post office. We had to do a quick U-turn when leaving the main lot, then made a left toward the overflow area. It's just a short walk from there to the restaurant. From the lot, the door we saw looked more like a side entrance, but we gave it a try and were able to walk right in. Inside, we were a little confused about where to check in, but we eventually found the host stand located near the center of the space, close to the bar. I let the hostess know I had a reservation for 11:30. Although we arrived about 30 minutes late, she was incredibly accommodating, acknowledged the reservation, and led us through the dining room. We were stopping in for a quick bite before heading to a beer festival and requested an outdoor table. They had plenty of patio seating with a well-thought-out layout. We were seated in a great spot--ample shade provided by a large umbrella, perfect for the warm day. Our server, Brandon W., greeted us promptly and gave us time to look over the menu. He mentioned he'd be happy to answer any questions we had. The drink menu featured several specialty cocktails, an unexpectedly solid beer selection, and some creative food options. Wifey ordered the Margherita pizza and a Howell's Lager, brewed by SweetWater. We ended up sharing the lager since we knew there were more beers to come later . I went with the Clucker Chicken Sandwich, sweet potato fries, and a water. The food came out quickly. My sandwich was delicious--crispy chicken, great flavor from the mayo-mustard blend, and nice texture from the slaw. The sweet potato fries were nice and crunchy. Wifey really enjoyed her pizza--the crust was crisp and well-executed. Brandon W. was fantastic--friendly, attentive, and clearly knew the menu well. He made sure we were well taken care of from start to finish. We will definitely return to Howell's to try some other menu items.

    Smoked Mozzarella Sticks and Grown Up Chicken Tenders
    Candyce V.

    Can't believe I haven't reviewed this business yet! I've been to Howell's numerous times and every visit has been pleasant. Ironically, the last time I had food from there was after ordering via UberEats so these are the only pics I have for now. The menu consists of elevated bar food and delicious pizzas, beyond your ordinary options. The cocktail menu is also well thought out. For my delivery order, I kept it simple with a Caesar salad, mozzarella sticks, and chicken tenders. I always come here for my mozzarella stick fix because I like the slight smoky flavor and how these are more like logs than little sticks. Really, all the food is solid. And I love the ambiance...not too stuffy but far from a hole in the wall. And everyone's been super friendly every time I've been here.

    I've been to Cypress Street Pint & Plate a few times and just realized I never left a review, so…read morehere we go! We stopped in for a team lunch and had a great experience. Our server was fast, friendly, and kept everything moving smoothly. I ordered the Cypress cheeseburger and fries, which is actually my go-to here. The burger is consistently good -- not huge but not small either, just the right size to leave you full and satisfied. The fries? Nothing fancy, just good old basic fried potatoes. But they came out hot and crispy, so no complaints from me! LOL. The real highlight of the table was the blackened redfish. Two people in our group ordered it and both loved it! Overall a solid lunch spot with good service and tasty food. I'll definitely be back. Strong 4/5 for me.

    My friend, Angie, lives close to this restaurant and bar, so we are frequent visitors to Cypress. I…read morealways have delicious food and drinks, so it gets five stars. The bartenders are always on point, while the servers aren't always as attentive as I'd like, but this place is usually packed, so I give grace. There is a variety of seating at Cypress: patio seating, regular tables, high-top tables, inside bar seats, and inside tables or high-tops. If it is Christmas time, there is a fantastic pop-up in the back, near the restrooms. Always check out their special menu as it changes, and if the pimento cheese balls are on it, then you must get them as they are our favorite! We love to come here on Wednesday night for the best deal in town, Pie and Vine, in which you get a pizza and a bottle of wine for $20. Yep, that is not a misprint $20. I love the mushroom pizza, but my meat-lover friends like the one with peperoni and sasage. If I'm eating at Cypress, then it is hard to pick what I get because they have so many options. To start or be my meal would be the KIMCHI BRUSSELS SPROUTS, CRISPY TUNA RICE, or wings. I am a big, huge fan of their salads. I like them all and add grilled, blackwned, or buffalo chicken, salmon, or grilled shrimp to them. I have never had a burger, but my friends love them. I need to try the black bean one day. I enjoy their SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN TENDERS and the BUFFALO CHICKEN sandwich.

    I'm thrilled to share that I finally stopped by Brick Store Pub last Friday! I've visited Downtown…read moreDecatur Square countless times and walked past this spot over and over but this time, I got lucky and made it in for a drink. Brick Store Pub is an incredible place. The staff are fantastic, personable, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. They really know their craft and are happy to share recommendations on both drinks and food. The ambiance adds so much to the experience, I recommend you to come and relax on the patio or grab a seat at the bar. There's such a great vibe all around that makes you want to stay awhile. If you're in the area, definitely stop by, you'll enjoy every bit of the atmosphere that Brick Store has been giving all this time. I will be back!

    I was recommended this pub by so many people. I was in DT Decatur with some friends, my wife, and…read morebrother after my birthday dinner, and wanted a place to go, to continue the fun. Brick Store was literally not even 100 feet from where we went for dinner, Iberian Pig. We went upstairs to have a drink. The vibes are super cool inside this pub! In my opinion, this might be one of the best beer pubs that I have ever been to. The upstairs feels very rustic and almost like you're in a castle of some sort. In true fashion, of course I got a glass of Guinness. It was perfect! Our server was super friendly and very attentive. She even provided some suggestions based on what the others were looking for. Her name was Olivia! Brick Store also has a full food menu too, but we just came for drinks. The food menu is tradiitonal pub type food, so fish and chips, chicken pot pie, etc. It honestly looked really good! I will definitely be back here in the future!!
