The bartender, Austin, was on it! He made us amazing drinks, welcomed us, and made us feel at home, right away!!! We were traveling all weekend and ending up here felt like such a wonderful gift. I would highly recommend this place! Brandon, the manager, was also so helpful. They ran out of the ingredients for what we ordered and he did everything he could to make us happy. This place is customer first!! Well done east end grill! If you are in town and want a great experience - go here!!!!

The Bryant is a solid, mid-to-high tier spot that delivers the look, feel, food, and service…read morequality I usually associate with larger cities. Everything was excellent. The space looks great, it's clean, and the staff is genuinely friendly. Service was very fast, even with multiple large groups in the room. Noise was completely reasonable. If anything, it may feel "a little loud" to someone whose baseline is the quieter side of the Lafayette-area dining scene, but compared to bigger-city restaurants it was fully fine and well within what I'd expect. Overall, The Bryant would fit right in in a market like Oklahoma City, Dallas, New York, or Pittsburgh and wouldn't feel out of place at all. Highly recommended.

A few locals recommended this restaurant, so I thought I would give it a try while I was passing…read morethrough. Upon entering, I was promptly seated, and the decor and atmosphere are stunning. I thought I was underdressed, but the dress code seems pretty casual. Water was served in a cold milk bottle. I could not decide what to order; everything on the menu looked absolutely delicious. The menu described the items well, and when I asked the wait staff for their preference or any recommendations, she told me five different favorite items that are often ordered, which was nice, but was not what I asked. I finally decided on the strawberry-and-brie cheeseburger. I ordered it medium well with fries. I was really disappointed in the French fries; they tasted old and cold, and when I cut into the hamburger, it was bloody. I sent the burger back, and this time they brought it out well done. The staff argued that it was medium well, with blood coming out of it. And before anybody thinks I'm confusing the strawberry jam on the burger with bloody pink meat, please see the picture. Upon receiving the new burger, which was cooked well done, I found it to be very good. It was tasty and juicy. As I was finishing my meal, a young family came in, and their child was making a lot of noise. A gentleman told them that if the child did not calm down, they would have to go outside. When the family tried to speak with the gentleman further, he continued walking away and did not stop to answer questions. I was not sitting close to this table, and yet I heard the gentleman talking to the young couple. Had I not already received my food and been getting ready to leave, I would have gotten up and gone with the couple in support. I understand setting standards, especially when the restaurant is bustling, but at this point, as a server, I could only observe two other tables in the entire restaurant, and one of them was preparing to leave. If I ever returned to this area, this restaurant would not be one I would return to.

I have always loved this place, I visit often, mainly for breakfast, I have always found the…read moreservers very friendly and nice! , however this time I had a weird experience. First off, I have always picked where I want to sit, the part about "server is busy, and that table is served by a specific server" is nonsensical, they should really change or add a server to the seating area that customers prefer (near window, more lighting etc) rather than having the customer sit somewhere else for their servers convenience. Secondly, I picked up the glass for water and it smelled like an egg, I called out the server (who already seemed annoyed to change of seats) and told her about the glass and the response I got was "we wash our glasses in vinegar so it must be that", well first off, I know the difference between vinegar and egg smell, secondly, it was disgusting and I cannot drink water in it, instead of arguing, she really should have just changed the glass, it's not that hard.

Flavor Country is a spot you definitely need to know about, or at least research in advance to find…read moreit. It's tucked away inside a building that has two separate entrances. The entrance on the side of the building can be tricky to notice, so don't blink, otherwise, you might miss it. Since I'm not from Lafayette, I looked it up ahead of time on Google Maps and zoomed in to see exactly where it was. The restaurant is medium-sized and kept clean, with generous portion sizes. I ordered an Impossible burger with fries, which was fine. My friends ordered shrimp linguine, which they enjoyed, while another friend got gyros fries and nachos; she thought her meal was just okay. Overall, my experience was average, but everyone around us seemed to be enjoying their meals. If you're in the area, I would recommend checking it out, it's worth a try!

Flavor Country is a new restaurant in downtown Lafayette. I'll start with the good. The side mac n…read morecheese was good and a decent portion for $6. The sandwiches were very good. We had the grinder and the fried chicken sandwich. The grinder had great flavor. The fried chicken breast sandwich is brined and the meat has a pink hue that has caused some people to think it's not cooked thoroughly. But that is not correct according to the restaurant. It's due to the brining process for the chicken. The prices were good. The service was good. The not so good, the fries are hand cut and thin. They would have been great except they were lukewarm and seemed to have been sitting out awhile. The onion rings were terrible. Also hand cut but the breading fell off all the onions. They did not have good flavor either. I recommend coming into the building by Nom Nom if you have people who have trouble with stairs. The other entrance has two steps but there's no railing. My 81 year old mother had trouble with that. We learned of the other entrance and used that one when we left.

For a return trip it was everything ai expected and more. The server was on top of it from start to…read morefinish, the food top notch and the portion size HUGE. Right across the Indiana state line on the West side of Indiana sits this little gem that serves up awesome hamburgers made with local sourced beef and many other items such as fish, steak, and chicken. We ordered two appetizers of onions rings, fried green beans and when they arrived we realized at that moment we were never going to finish either of them. The portions were huge and the freshness and flavor were great! They have many specialty hamburgers to choose from and the standards as well. I went with the Ellie burger with grilled onions and bacon jam. It was massive and delicious. My partner chose the mushroom and Swiss for a home run. The burgers come with your choice of fries, chips or Cole slaw. We both chose fries and they were really really good. We could have did just fine with the fries as our side but we splurged. The interior of the place is a little dark but warm and comfortable. There are even a few slot machines to entertain you if you desire. We also noted that there is a time change once you cross the state line so keep that in mind.

We all finished every bite of our food. The service was exceptional. I highly recommend making reservations. We will be back!

Wow what a find!! Thanks YELP!…read more Went here for a business dinner on a Wednesday night. Only a few tables occupied. So the place was not noisy at all. Also no blaring music in the background which I really liked. We were waited on by Sarah. Just an awesome individual. So friendly and attentive. Also cute as a button as the old folks say. :-) She guided us through the menu and also made a few suggestions which we went with. We started with an app - cheese curds served with a sriracha dipping sauce. There is no way I was in Indiana. :-). The cheese curds were legit! They have a solid drink menu. We got the bare knuckles porter and an espresso martini. The martini was fantastic. No actual espresso so no caffeine. Not bad! My main was a BYO Burger. A top 10 burger for me. Smashed style and cooked perfectly with the lacy, crusty edges. I got the following - cheddar, bacon, grilled onions, grilled mushrooms, fried egg, jalapeños and fried egg. Absolute money! For a side I got the truffle fries ($5 up charge) but well worth it! So damn good. This place is a gem and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. I hope to be back to the area to try it again.
