I went on a Wednesday night, which every other Wednesday is a bingo charity night. You purchase a card(s) and any wine or anything else you might like and play bingo for a couple hours with the funds going to a local charity. And if you and your group are interested in playing board games, they have every imaginable goal board game, dating back to the 60s and before, as well as as a Scrabble table game and a Clue table game, where you can see all the rooms and place your people and weapons in the room of your choice. Definitely a really fun night out with wonderful employees and other guests having a great time. Highly recommend!

It's fun, but the band brings their own amp/sound system, and the acoustics are not great. - They have a glass polisher, and it's very loud; it's about as loud as castanets. They run it all the time, including while the live band is playing. WHY? It ruins the sound from the band. I left. I tried a few glasses: - 5/5: The Dezzani sparkling red is great. $13 - 3/5: The Quady Orange Muscat $12. OK, but lacked complexity.

Great Food, Great Service & a Manager Who Actually Says Hello!…read more Loved this place! My bride and I had a fantastic experience from the moment we walked in. This restaurant has an incredible indoor and outdoor space, a great menu, and an atmosphere that somehow manages to be both chill and professional. You'll find a wonderfully diverse crowd here, and everyone seems to fit right in. Now, let's talk about the food! I highly recommend the meatballs--they were fantastic! And the garlic bread? Fabulous. Honestly, I could have made a meal out of the bread alone, but I exercised some restraint...because I'm an adult. My bride ordered the hamburger, and she loved it. The salads were excellent, the bread was outstanding, and the dessert selection was enough to make someone suddenly forget they were "too full for dessert." Our server was incredible--attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. And then, as if the experience couldn't get any better, the manager actually came out and welcomed us! You don't find that everywhere. That personal touch says a lot about how this place approaches hospitality. Everything was clean, the service was excellent, the food was delicious, and the ambiance made us want to hang around longer than we probably should have. One warning: Parking can be a bit of a challenge. But trust me, this is one of those places where you circle the parking lot a few times and say, "Lord, give me a parking space!" Yelp Elite verdict: Absolutely worth the hassle! Great food. Great people. Great atmosphere. Great service. And apparently, great managers who actually come out to meet their guests. My bride and I will definitely be back! #YelpElite #FoodieFind #DateNight #GreatFood #GreatService #Meatballs #GarlicBread #DessertLovers #RestaurantReview #WorthTheHassle #FoodAndFun #FiveStars

Really enjoyed our first visit to The Hideout! We had the fried chicken sandwich with sweet potato…read morefries and the prime rib. The sandwich was delicious, and the chipotle aioli was especially good--creamy, flavorful, and one of the better ones I've had. The sweet potato fries were crispy. My partner really enjoyed the prime rib, and the portion was large enough for leftovers. Service was quick, attentive, and friendly. We sat outside with our pups, which we appreciated. The only suggestion would be to update the patio layout a bit. Our table was directly across from the waiting area, so it felt like we had very little privacy while people waited. Other than that, we had a great experience and would definitely come back.

Super friendly, honest, and made sure we were well taken care of. For food, we got the rib eye steak that was cooked to perfection with a side of garlic mashed potatoes that were addicting. We also tried the fish tacos (average) and the chicken wings (a little bit dry and overcooked). Not on the menu but we wanted a side of fries and that ended up being the best part of the meal. The kitchen's only open until 10 but the bar serves until 12 on a Friday so we didn't feel rushed at all. A variety of drinks on the menu and pretty good as well! Lots of dessert options too if you have a sweet tooth.

There's such a whimsical, intimate feel to the space--you get a beautiful view of the garden and the cozy feeling of being at home. Honestly, it feels like dining in the backyard of someone's beautifully curated home. The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable, and the food was DELICIOUS! One of my favorite parts of the experience was getting to watch the chefs step out into the garden and gather fresh ingredients for the dishes. Everything felt so fresh, thoughtful, and special. I would highly recommend adding this restaurant to your list! Just keep in mind that it's located in a residential neighborhood, so there isn't a dedicated parking lot. You'll need to find street parking, but honestly, that just adds to the charm and uniqueness of the experience. Absolutely a 10/10!

Flavors were okay and portion size was very small for the price point. Trivia was adorable and wholesome. Three rounds of multiple choice and winners with a small prize each round.
