My first time here and it was quite good!…read more We ordered calamari and it was calamari strips and not calamari rings. It didn't matter to me as I like all calamari but I do wish I knew it was served with green peppers - I get acid reflex from green peppers and the calamari just sitting on them is enough to start acid production. Thankfully I snagged the calamari on the top of the mound and hubby ate the calamari touching the peppers. The dipping sauce was kind of odd and I was not a fan. Hubby got French onion soup and enjoyed and I really liked the salad (forgot the name of it - it had dried cherries and pine nuts among other things). The bread was bread. Hubby could not stop eating it, I picked at a piece...but that is our bread relationship. Hubby got cedar plank fish for dinner and it was seasoned well. Delicious! I opted to just get another appetizer for my dinner - the ahi tuna with seaweed salad. Overall, everything was good and I would come back!

Their happy hour menu is thoughtfully curated, with a great selection of wines by the glass and cocktails at very reasonable prices. The absolute standout, though, was the burrata appetizer. It's a showstopper - generous portions of creamy burrata drizzled with balsamic, surrounded by marinated artichokes, roasted peppers, bright cherry tomatoes, tangy pepperoncini, and toasted bread. Every bite was perfectly balanced between rich, fresh, and tangy flavors. It's big enough to share, though honestly, you may not want to. Pairing it with a crisp glass of white wine from their happy hour list was perfection. The staff was attentive, friendly, and made sure our glasses never went empty.

I added the French onion soup for $11 and it was the perfect lunch. The soup was excellent, except there was way too much cheese! Half the bowl was cheese. I love that the flavor was there yet I had more broth than onions. Oddly enough, French onion soup is one of my favs, but I don't want to eat the onions! They have a great selection of coffee drinks. I got the iced sweet and salty with no vanilla syrup. It had a salted caramel cold foam atop of cold brew. I mixed it all up and had a deliciously creamy drink!

You may be wondering why we chose a restaurant about 60 miles away for our review this…read more month. The answer is simple, because its darn good. Mrs. She-Ate and I are excited to share our esteem for this place with you. I first became aware of The Laundry around 2014 when I was leading a series of professional development workshops with the Flint Community Schools. A good friend and colleague who lived in the area suggested we have dinner not too far south of Flint and my taste buds have been blown ever since. The quaint bedroom community of Fenton has been benefitting from not just good food and libations, but also the cultural hub that The Laundry has become. Having first opened over 25 years ago on a site that was a former laundromat, the restaurant is embedded as an anchor in the downtown development and as a stalwart in supporting community initiatives- public schools and art, libraries, charities, and the chamber of commerce. They are as proud of that work as they are the James Beard nominated chefs who grace their kitchen. When you visit the bistro, with its locally sourced ingredients and on-site vegetable garden and beehive, you immediately know you're in a place that takes their food seriously. Craft cocktails and scratch-made meals are a hallmark, and while you may have prolonged anticipation while somethings arrive at your table, they are often well worth the wait. My very first meal years ago at The Laundry was a pork shank Osso buco that is still one of the best plates in my life. They also offer a cheese spread know as Gorg Dip that continues to be a hit whenever I recreate it during the holidays- cream cheese, leek, bacon, apricot, gorgonzola. Trust me, these people know what they're doing with flavors. Oh, wait, I forgot to mention they also double the fun with a bakery as their sister company, Crust, and a coffee house, Side Door, which is quite literally the Side Door to the restaurant. The baked goods are phenomenal, and rumor has it that leftover pastries are captured for the next day's bread pudding- which again is some of the best I've ever had. What's Really Good My Much Better Half stole away for a midday excursion to Fenton and enjoyed a "late brunch" at the Laundry. The coffee is a prime example of an exercise in patience- super slow in the advent but spot on once we were able to sip the hot, frothy Nutty Professor ($6.25. This is an espresso-based drink with house made caramel and macadamia syrup. For a sweet starter, we shared Jeff's Pull Apart Bread ($5) which is a single loaf shaped monkey bread. Packed with sweet notes of caramel and cinnamon and then smothered with a house made cream cheese frosting. Near perfect. What's Superb I must make note of the friendly and knowledgeable service we received. We were made aware of potential delays in plates and drinks but were also never an afterthought as our server checked on us multiple times with a genuine joy you only find when people really like where they work. We were both highly impressed and that was before she told us about her FIFTY-SIX hours in labor last July as she and My Much Better Half traded birthing stories. On the food side, I was torn between two items and our server asked how hungry I was. She then encouraged me to order the #125 The Money Maker ($17) and I was very much enchanted. A grilled brioche bun holds a heaping mound of hot honey butter braised chicken that is topped with applewood smoked bacon and a house made pimento cheese spread. The meat was tender and the kick from the heat was remarkable but not overblown. The pimento cheese spread is so good it also belongs in a jar to be purchase on the way out. I also ordered the Roasted Potatoes($3.50) which were just okay, to be honest, but there was enough flavor in the sammie that it didn't matter much. Best Bite My dining mate is a lifelong pursuit of the perfect French Onion soup. She ordered the House made Soup and Sandwich ($25) and I think she got as close as possible. Not to be relegated to second billing was the Petite Croque Monsieur with layers of ham, Gruyère cheese, and a traditional croque sauce. Yet, the star of the show was the unctuous soup with broiled Gruyère and croutons and slivers of onion that have been carmelized and stewed in a succulent beef broth for longer than you or I would have patience for.

A recent takeout order consisted of the koshary and the tomato kibbee…read more First off, the bread included with the order leaves a lot to be desired as it was dry and bland. Fortunately, the toum was good enough to make the bread edible. The koshary was well prepared and tasty but needed a bit more sauce and fried onion. The tabbouli was good but soggy because there was too much liquid in the bottom of the container. The tomato kibbee was very good but it was definitely not worth $14.99 for the amount we received. It looked like such a small amount in the container that I weighed it on my kitchen scale. $14.99 for 12.3 ounces is not a good deal. That equates to $19.50 per pound for bulghur, tomato, green onion, a bit of spice, and one Kalamata olive.

Great combo of sweet and savory! We had the blue tuna tapa and it was soft and delicate. We shared but I really think it's a one person dish. The steak with romesco sauce tapas was OK but not my favorite. The meat was too chewy for me. Good size to share The tiny starters: glazed pineapple on goat cheese crostini was good but not worth re-ordering. Yes- shareable. The star is the oxtail paella!! Wow, rich, crunch, juicy and the vinegar from the peppers was a great compliment. Good drinks and wine selections. Next time I'll stick with the seafood selections and the oxtail paella.
