Served sizzling in the pan, juicy to the bone, fell apart like butter. Those wood-fired grills, imported from Italy, fire up everything: pizzas with dough stretched daily, crust blistered just right; breads warm, crusty outside, pillowy in. Pure comfort overload. Oh, and the bolognese--silky ragu clinging to fresh pasta, slow-cooked forever. Every bite screams Italy: the aroma, the way it settles heavy on your tongue. Makes you forget you're not actually in Naples. Their food isn't just good, it transports you, straight to someone's nonna's table. Wood fire, imported grills, honest bread--it's all so true. And the wines! They don't just hand you a glass--they pair. Every dish, every sauce has a buddy tucked in their list. Spaghetti and meatballs with a crisp Chianti, veal with Barolo that cuts right through the richness. Hell, even asked for a random white once and they nailed it. Feels like the grape was chosen months ago just for that exact forkful!

What happened?!!?…read more Let me start by saying this place used to be AMAZING! Beautiful wine list, long list of Italian liqueurs, beautiful seasonal menu done expertly, and an attentive staff. It knocked our socks off and we raved about it to everyone who would listen. My husband and I went back for a nice dinner after a period of 6 or so months and were appalled at the changes. It's a completely diff restaurant. Now they have a very small menu printed on computer paper of basic (boring) Americanized Italian dishes like spaghetti and fettuccine Alfredo and pizza, only a handful of wines (like basic red or white), no more after dinner liqueurs, a short basic cocktail list, and to be honest, service was not great. Our food took an hour to get to us and was cold. The kitchen looked like they were working without a head chef and was staffed by a couple of young boys who looked straight out of high school (no ageism intended but clearly they were misguided and are not professionals). The tomatoes in our Caprese salad were mushy and over ripe. The eggplant parm was dry and cold. We complained and were able to get some money off the bill but we are so extremely heartbroken by the drop in quality! For the prices they are charging they are smoking crack. We likely won't be back unless they go back to they restaurant they used to be. I won't be surprised to see this one go out of business if this is the route they continue to take. :(

My wife had the Smash Burger while I enjoyed the Fender Melt. We both upgraded our side to onion rings. Both which I recommend. Our only concern was the EXTRA 50 cents for the extra pickle my wife ordered. This was very surprising. As far as ambiance, Fender's is a Retro 50's Diner. Nice bar and grill scene. Check it out if you get the chance.

I got the tender bender, the chicken was okay but as previously stated, the mashed potatoes tasted like industrial soap with gelatinous cold gravy. The ambiance, ah, that is the question. You walk into a dark bar and turn left and you are in a 1950's style diner but with stylized pictures of 1970's entertainers with some unknown music playing (not music indicative of the 50's). It breaks my heart because this use to be a wonderful diner.

In addition, their coffee drinks make other baristas at "stary shop bucks" embarrassed by comparison because Yonah's are so creative and icily delightful. A toothsome treat to be certain! Quite a variety of yummy concoctions therein. All Yonah egg dishes rock, as does the turkey Club Sandwich. I'm particularly fond of all the varieties of Eggs Benedict- especially those with spinach or avocado. This place stars Tasty pancakes, French Toast tastes great too. Homemade buttermilk biscuits just can't be beat. We highly recommend this brunch bistro and barista's bar. All the servers are young, attractive, and exuberant. Thumbs up! Nice quiet atmosphere too.

We walk in, see that maybe 75% of the tables are occupied. We wait in line and place our order. I get chicken strips and fries, Megan gets a smash burger and fries. Then we sit at our table and wait. The decor is interesting, it is a random yet thorough collection of Americana memorabilia. We have a good opportunity to study it while waiting. This is the type of restaurant where you get up and refill your drinks at a fountain for soda or a pitcher for tea. I get up and get a refill. And another refill. And another refill. When we sat down they were serving number 2. We are number 16. Hamburger and fries, how long can it take? So we look around, slowly orders are getting delivered. Still waiting. About a quarter to three our number comes up. Yes, that's 1:15 we have been waiting. Chicken strips are a little overcooked and bland. Fries are good. Megan's burger is pretty good. There are other things on the menu that look interesting. I don't really want to wait that long though.

The service was exceptional. Our entrees took a very long time to come out, so the assistant manager visited our table, apologized and asked us if she could give us anything. We appreciated the customer service but didn't request anything additional. The in-house Sourdough bread was very good. - B+ The Peach Burrata was really good, except for the peaches (but I am not a fan of peaches). I really enjoyed the flavor of the cheese and tomatoes. - A The Mushroom Risotto was bomb! Only thing I would change is add more mushrooms (but I am a super mushroom fan). - A+ Lastly, the Brussel Sprouts, they were seasoned perfectly and my partner stated they were the best he's ever had. - A+ Everything here is served in shareable portions. The night we went there was live music. The ambience is romantic and eccentric. Staff is polite and willing to take pictures of you, and give you hints of the best backgrounds. I highly recommend Community Brew & Tap.
