We had a short wait at the bar and met another couple who we ended up seated next to. Laura was our server and she was OUTSTANDING! We had such a tough time deciding, it literally came to a coin toss. We chose the fried Brussel Sprouts, which we'd heard so much about and the burger, served with homemade chips. There was never a time when this place was not busy and everyone was on their game. The ambiance was wonderful and the food came out very quickly. The sprouts were served in a black, cast iron pan with pork belly and an amazing glaze and that burger was to die for! Both dishes were absolutely delicious and we couldn't finish them, unfortunately. I look forward to returning to the area and would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Brian's Landing if you're ever nearby.

It was a nice comfortable feel indoors with a cute outdoor patio. There were two steps to the dining area so it was a bit difficult for my parents to navigate with limited mobility, but doable. The food tasted really good. The only improvement would be to make the yolk more runny on the eggs benedict and the potatoes were SUPER crispy. They could have cooked a touch less but all in all very tasty and good portions. The potato cake on the benny was crispy on the outside and creamy inside. The dijon on the croque sandwich was the perfect sharpness to cut through the rich cheese and bechamel. The carmelized cook on the breakfast skillet veggies was nice, and the bacon was perfect. The best cook on bacon I have had when going out to eat.

We decided to split an appetizer and 2 entrees. The Wedge salad was delicious with a homemade blue cheese dressing that a wonderful taste. It came with marinated onions, cherry tomatoes and real bacon crumbles. We had the Breakfast Burger, pink inside and it came with nice thin cut fries. We also got the Grits bowl with an added fried chicken cutlet and added sauteed vegetables. Everything was nicely prepared and plated. Our server checked back with us several times, refilled our water and made sure everything was going well. I love all the eclectic decorations, mismatched plates and glasses and vintage items all over. I'll definitely be returning. As a nice touch one of the items on the table lists upcoming special events.

The service was so friendly and accommodating. We brought our son who uses a power wheelchair, and the staff helped us get into the building and down to the dining area. We wanted to eat outside and they made that happen too. And then my son wanted to order something slightly off menu, and without any hesitation, our server said she would check if they could do that, and came back and said yes. We had a really delicious vegan meal, with exceptionally friendly and accommodating service. THIS is why a person goes out to eat. Can't recommend more highly!

My boyfriend and I were starving and looking for dinner. I saw this place on Yelp and we decided to…read morecheck it out. We dined in and both ordered the blackened chicken alfredo. The dish itself was beautifully plated, and we both loved that it had tomatoes in it, it was just a little bland. I wish it had more flavor. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. The sauce was bland. I do think the service was somewhat slow, the restaurant didn't appear to be that busy, it was a Tuesday evening and one of the World Cup games was on. The server was nice though. I thought the decor was cool.

The dining room was spacious and clean and bright as were the servers and the bartenders who expertly served us. They have a happy hour from 5 to 7 that varies each day so on this Thursday was half price on selected appetizers as well as $2.50 domestic select drafts. We got there about 10 after five and the bar quickly filled up, which seemed to be regulars, which was a good sign. We decided to linger a little bit over our first drinks and ordered deep fried cheese curds with a delicious margarita type tomato sauce. I had never had fried cheese curds and they were plentiful and came out steaming hot topped with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese, unfortunately I did not take a picture as we were hungry and dove right in. When it was time for our second drink, I pondered over their wine list, but decided that with my Reuben and mac & cheese dinner a cold draft would suffice. My husband ordered the Philly cheesecake sandwich and onion rings. The mac & cheese and the onion rings were up charges of $2.50 and they were worth it. The cheesesteak sandwich was not shaved beef, but wonderfully thick pieces of beef on a perfectly toasted bun type with cheese and peppers. The onion rings were generous as well as crisp and not overly breaded. My Reuben was perfectly toasted on a delicious rye bread with just the right amount of sauce to not make it soggy. The star was their mac & cheese served in a steaming hot crock! It was creamy, not too cheesy, but cheesy enough to know that you were digging into a delicious bite of mac & cheese.. well done kitchen! All in all the meal was so large we could only eat half of it and brought it home for another day. We would certainly return as we enjoyed every bit of our evening. The patio looked invited and will be opening soon. They also have live entertainment to enjoy.

At first the location seems less than promising, but inside the little touches of decor make for a charming, if not polished experience. It is still largely a bar that serves food, but the food is impressive in both quality and low price. The little details like in-house made desserts, house ranch dressing, and hand cut fries are a pleasant surprise. The organization behind staggered brunch seating lends itself well to good availability of items, freshness, and service. The menu includes frequently updated seasonal choices. This is also a LGBTQ+ bar. Brunch menus are regularly posted on Facebook, and the process for text message based reservations is convenient. Possibly one of the most surprisingly good restaurants in the greater Syracuse area.
