Side salad done right and a burger that stands above.
Chris C.

I've been here twice this. The past five weeks and honestly, I feel like I'm going to make this a frequent place on my list of favorites. That's a pretty difficult list as I hold high expectations to put five stars down on a review like this. So let's start with the why. It's simple, this place cares. It begins with the greatest to the servers and the cooks/head chef. They are so friendly and pleasant. You cannot walk in or out without receiving a gracious welcome or thank you for joining us. Smiles are abundant and just people that love what they are doing. The attention to detail on plating outshines many restaurants with much higher price points and it is at all levels of the food menu. Wings are stacked elegantly, not piled on a plate. The side salad was beautiful. Yes, a side salad. The bun of the burger was toasted wait cross hatch grill mark. Not everyone pays attention or cares about this stuff. But whoever the chef here is cares a lot. Back when this place opened years ago its menu was very limited and lacked inspiration. Boy have things changed. And yes, the food tastes as good as it looks. Honestly some of the best wings around. If you like crispy, look no further. Looks great, tastes great, and priced reasonably. And the beer on draft is amazing. Draft beer is special. Less carbonation and more flavor. So many great beers here. And then the bourbon and whiskey . Even the loft upstairs for an after dinner drink is lovely. I can't say enough about this place and what they have created. And so impressed by the chef and their passion. You rock!

Decent food but sub par service. We were sat and forgot about. My gf had to get up and request a server. Once the server came over, she did take our orders. For an 80 degree day, it was very hot in the restaurant and I had felt the heat blowing. There was black stuff on the ice in my water. The breakfast burrito however, was very good and the prices were reasonable.

Breakfast sandwich
Shannon S.

Service was prompt and friendly. The shrimp and grits were good. They were served in a sweet style with maple syrup. They had bacon and a bunch of shrimp with green onions. I think I would prefer them more savory. The ham breakfast sandwich was fresh with an egg, lettuce, tomato and onion on a brioche bun. Good brunch spots with some nice cocktails.

House cab and Bitburger Beer (in the appropriate mug!)
Meredith R.

If I have my druthers, I almost ALWAYS choose Chinese food. But today, living in the fast lane -- yeah, right -- I decided on a gastro pub for lunch. 3.54 stars! T ordered Bitburger, a beer he hadn't had since visiting Germany. I hate beer. House cab for me. He went with fish and chips. I chose a small salad and calamari. (We rarely splurge on all this fried stuff!) The greens had more ingredients than typical. If the croutons were homemade and the ranch dressing more descript, I would've loooooved the salad. There was a lot of calamari on my plate. Even with T helping out, I brought a fair amount home. The calamari needed a little something extra, but the rings and tentacles brought my rating up .54 points. (I'm nothing if not precise!) T's fish was fried with a thick coating. The cod was flakey, but like the squid, needed zing. Even though tables overlook the parking lot, it was pleasant to sit outside. The staff is very nice. While I probably won't come back, if you like gastro pubs, Iron Abbey sells everything a pub should sell!

Croquets. Yum.
Jason S.

I LOVE going to the Iron Abbey when in the area. I was there on a Wednesday and it was burger night. I like to go here bc they have a large (30) tap menu of great beers, including one of the only places that has Russian River on tap. Tonight I started with the happy hour chicken croquettes and had the absolutely amazing juicy thick pork chop with potatoes and asparagus as my entree. I like to get one of their cask old fashioned during happy hour. Tonight I had 2 great tap beers and headed up stairs to grab a beer to go. Service is always very attentive at the. Again it's a bar. It's got more of a European feel and ambiance is basement cellar which caters to European soccer fans with the televised games. My only complaint is parking, it's behind the restaurant. I have NEVER had a bad meal. I travel alone for work and usually there are friendly people around the bar to talk to. Love coming here.

Filet mignon and Pork Schnitzel

The pork schnitzel and filet mignon were to die for! They were both cooked to perfection! Our server was also very good! They had a good playlist and atmosphere... even saved room for desert! 10/10

Fried Chicken Sliders
Neferteri G.

The food was good. I guess I expected more seeing as how it's right next to the NaBrasa. There could have been a little more flavor in the chicken sliders, but the ribs and salmon were really yummy from what my family said. I reallllyyy enjoyed the brownie, it was surprisingly 10x better than the cake. The inside is nice, plenty of seating, and the bar is pretty big. The drinks were made very well, 8/10. Our server was quick and efficient. They bring the check in a little box, which I thought was neat. I would try this place again.

Entrance
Cesar G.

Great ambiance for English premiere league games on the weekend especially if you're a Liverpool fan. Went during the week and enjoyed their poutine appetizer. Chicken and dumpling dish was gnocchi that I really liked. The seafood pasta was okay, strong seafood taste. The staff was very welcoming.

Country setting with horse and goat to entertain. Food was impeccable, and each course was presented with an elegant flare. It does take at least four hours. There is so much food. Service was excellent and a tour and history of the Cavallo's and restaurant founder Shirley Cavallo, had a charm to it. It's hard to believe that this wonderful establishment has been around for 50 years. This is not your grandmother's restaurant, this is an experience. I really appreciate the fact that it is BYOB, we saved money on a bar tab. Finally the kitchen is the cleanest I have ever saw in a restaurant. Congratulations to Chef Brondo.

From the moment we sat down, it was clear this wasn't just dinner -- it was an experience. The bread alone was award-winning quality. The squash harvest soup was absolutely amazing -- rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. It was a five-course meal, and every course delivered. The cheese and cherry ravioli was an incredible sweet-and-savory combination that had me savoring every bite. The roasted duck had unique, complex flavors and was definitely delicious. I also tried a bit of the shrimp -- even though I passed most of it off -- and it was excellent. And dessert? I don't even know exactly what it was, but it was outstanding. What really sets this place apart is the full experience. We were given a tour of the property and learned about the incredible history of the building. Barry, our waiter and tour guide, was absolutely incredible -- attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the restaurant. The private tour and the information he shared made the night even more special. We also had the privilege of meeting the owner and chef, Brondo. He was a pleasure to meet -- very cool guy and an exceptional chef. Everything about La Locanda Del Cavallo is on point: Great service Great atmosphere Great people Must-try food While the food was fantastic, the entire experience is what makes it truly unique. Highly, highly, highly recommend.

You may have to fold your mirrors in to hit cars, I'm not exaggerating. I had envisioned a larger restaurant but this was small with maybe 7 tables. We sat at one with padded wooden benches that was comfortable. We were the only customers when arrived for lunch. The menu is limited and the waitress was as authentic as the food. There were some lunch specials posted but we opted to try three things: mushroom cheese bread, potato pancakes and the blueberry pierogies. The pierogies were definitely handmade and on the larger side as soon as you cut it open, the blueberries rushed out. There was a sweet sugary sauce on the top. That was unexpected. They were served cold and not warm. They were sweet. There were two of us and we each were only able to eat one of the six that came in the order. The mushroom cheese bread was drizzled with ketchup, which was unexpected that cheese was melting and gooey. Our favorite item was definitely the potato pancakes. They were cooked to perfection and the sour cream was the perfect condiment. They do have limited drinks here, including bottled water, cans of Pepsi and diet Pepsi, and some unique bottled drinks like birch water. The biggest drawback for the spot was that I just didn't think it was as clean as I would've liked it to be. It is authentic and as you eat, there is a man in the back that you can see making pierogies by hand. I'm glad that we tried this, but I'm not sure that I would return.
