We met two friends for dinner to celebrate my upcoming birthday and one of their belated birthdays…read more From the moment we walked in, the service was friendly and attentive, and our server was excellent throughout the night.
My wife started with the daily special, a dragonfruit mojito. It was a beautiful purple color, but unfortunately, it looked much better than it tasted. It had almost no sweetness and was honestly pretty bad. Two of us tasted it when our server came back to see if we wanted to order the same thing, and we both immediately declined. Our server took it back and worked some magic to improve it, which we appreciated. My wife eventually switched to a different drink later that was much better. The rest of the table's cocktails were fine, but nothing really stood out.
We split the L'Cobb salad as an appetizer, and it was amazing. It was easily one of the highlights of the meal, and both my wife and I agreed we would order it as a meal in the future.
For dinner, my wife ordered the Country Captain Salmon and said it was excellent and something she would definitely order again. Both of our friends ordered the filet and complimented the flavor and preparation.
I went with the L Burger, and unfortunately, that was the disappointment of the meal for me. The meat was juicy but lacked seasoning, so the burger depended heavily on the bacon jam for flavor. There wasn't enough of it to carry the burger. I asked for some extra to cover the areas that had been missed, and adding more definitely helped, but overall the burger was still just mid. I would try their regular burger next time because I think traditional condiments could have easily taken it from mid to good. The fries, however, were cooked perfectly and lightly salted.
We finished by ordering three desserts to share: the pecan pie, peanut butter pie, and crème brûlée cheesecake. The peanut butter pie was delicious, extremely rich, and HUGE. Two people could easily struggle to finish it. The crème brûlée cheesecake was also delicious and was a more average-sized dessert portion. Our friend was disappointed with both the taste and portion size of the pecan pie.
Overall, there were definitely some hits and misses with the food and drinks, but the service was excellent. Our server was friendly, attentive, handled the issue with my wife's first cocktail without hesitation, and took great care of us throughout the evening. The L'Cobb salad, salmon, filets, and desserts were the standouts. I would come back, but next time I'd skip the L Burger and try something else on the menu.
