Our group stopped by New Amsterdam after an event nearby on a Sunday night, and we were blown away…read morein the best way. There was only one bartender working when we arrived, and despite the size of the crowd, she absolutely killed it. We arrived before most of the rush, and instead of offering us a cocktail menu, our bartender asked us our preferred liquors and what kind of flavor we were looking for. I opted for "something sweet with vodka," and wound up with an espresso martini with added chocolate liqueur. It was phenomenal. New Amsterdam also appears to have updated their menu, and our party was very pleased with the selections. Most of us finished our food so quickly that we didn't even take pictures! I went for the cheeseburger egg rolls, which were the perfect late night snack. The house-made burger sauce was a perfectly tangy pairing. Others in the party opted for some of the mac and cheese options, and everyone had overwhelmingly good things to say about the flavor combinations. Our food also came out very quickly, so we were very happy. Looking forward to going back to New Amsterdam when the rooftop opens back up in warmer weather, and excited to see what other delicious cocktails they'll craft!

Heard good things about the food at New Amsterdam! I saw their food truck they had in front of…read moreVelum Brewery, and the food looked and smelled amazing. They had a heated rooftop and DJ at the bottom. There were two bartenders working when I went. At the front, they had a wheel you could spin for $8 for a randomized drink. They also do trivia on Tuesday I believe. I got the curry poutine fries, which I've gotten from another restaurant before and they were amazing. I think this place puts a lot of sauce and cheese on but I think it would taste better if it had the curry on the bottom and had crispy fries to delay the time they get soggy. It was topped with green onions which was nice and a good fresh flavor addition. It's a huge platter of fries for $16 though - great to share for a group. I think their wing deal is worth trying - 10 wings for $15 and a MYRIAD of flavors to pick from.

Growing up in the area, Park Valley Lounge was a place that I always drove by, but never stopped. I…read morelive closer to here now, and I have been coming more frequently over the past two years. It is a great local bar that has a solid flow of regulars located in South Park. There is ample amount of parking, as the old beer distributor building that was next door was recently demolished, and thus provides a lot more parking spaces for this business. I have never once had to wait for a table to dine here upon arrival. It does get busy at times, but even then I am always able to find a space either at a table or at the bar. They have various food and drink specials each day, but we almost always come on a Monday for the Wing Night. Wings are $1.30 each, and you can order them in whatever type of quantity you wish. They are not the largest wings I have had at a Wing Night, but they are not breaded and made-to-order. So, they take a little longer than other food items. However, they always come out hot and fresh. Some of our go-to sauces include the Sweet Teriyaki, the Garlic Parmesan, Honey BBQ, and Buffalo. Typically, we always get an appetizer as well. Have tried several of them over time, but we have been getting the Trio Platter lately. This visit, we went with the Zucchini Planks, Provolone Sticks, and Mini Tacos. It comes with three sauces, so we got Ranch, Santa Fe Ranch, and Marinara. The Zucchini Planks are smaller compared to most restaurants, but not bad. I like that the platter not only comes with the choice of the appetizers, but also the sauces. Another favorite of mine is the Grilled Cheese. This particular time, the cheese was not very melted and I was not asked if I wanted tomato or any additional toppings when I ordered. I usually am asked, and I usually enjoy this item. This might have been a one-off, but this particular time it was sub-par. The prices here are fair, for the most part. Depending on what you get, the value may not be there. Additionally, they charge extra for Ranch if ordering it with the wings. When we first started coming here, there was a bartender who always worked Mondays, and we loved her. She was friendly, always remembered us when we came in, and really took care of everyone. I do not believe she is with the bar anymore, and the staff seems to rotate on Mondays now. We have not had the same level of service with any of the new Monday staff. Not that it is necessarily terrible, but makes us miss the bartender who took such good care of us from prior visits. I would recommend stopping at Park Valley for a bite to eat or to hang out. The crowd is never too large, and everyone is friendly. Plus, it is a chance to support a locally owned and operated business.

We showed up for a Saturday lunch ahead of a snow storm, and the overall experience was good. The staff were friendly. There were clearly some number of regulars around. The space is a bit old and drafty, but that just adds a level of character. In terms of the food, we ordered a few salads and a half reuben (part of the lunch special), plus an Italian flatbread. Nothing was exceptional, but everything was nicely prepared and presented. The vegetables in the salad were fresh and crisp. The flatbread was good but not particularly noteworthy. My partner liked the rueben, but thought it could use a little more sauerkraut. The Guinness was fresh and nicely poured. All told, this was a good experience. Understand that this is more of a neighborhood hang than a destination, but it excels at filling that role.
