In many ways, it did, but there was one area where it fell short. They chose an excellent location for this restaurant, right in the heart of one of the liveliest and most popular areas of Huntsville/Madison. We had reservations, which I would recommend, and were seated right away. Our server came by a few minutes later to take our drink order, but then we didn't see him again for a while. On the bright side, my wife absolutely loved the Shakshuka, and my fried chicken, macaroni and cheese, and fried okra were all very tasty. The food certainly lived up to our expectations! Unfortunately, the service could have been much better. Our server was rather blunt and not particularly friendly, and we felt a little rushed throughout our visit. Overall, the food and location were great, but the service left something to be desired. We've had wonderful experiences at their other locations, so hopefully this was just an off day. We would have enjoyed our visit much more with a friendlier, more attentive server.

I had heard plenty of great things about Boarhog's and finally got the chance to give it a try. I…read moregot the combo plate with brisket and smoked wings and for my sides I got the mac & cheese and the potato salad along with a piece of texas toast. The brisket was phenomenal. It was extremely tender and melts in your mouth! You don't need a knife because it falls apart on its own and it was seasoned to perfection. The smoked wings were delicious as well and paired perfectly with the white sauce. The mac wasn't the greatest but I enjoyed the potato salad. The Texas toast was a great addition and was perfect for creating a little bbq sandwich. My total came out to around $32 which I felt was a bit pricey when I had paid but after getting my plate I realized how large the portions were which totally justified the cost. At most BBQ restaurants I usually finish all my food but here I had left overs so I basically got 2 meals out of the one plate. Another thing I liked is that they have a variety of sauces and they aren't stingy with them. Overall this is a great spot with friendly staff that provides wonderful service. The food is delicious and the restaurant is clean and well decorated. I will definitely be back! I was told that Boarhog's is the best BBQ in Huntsville and I can now confirm that as true!

The fish was fresh, seasoned well and cooked crispy like I requested it. I love their vinegar slaw and the baked beans were good. Not going to lie, I was a bit shocked how small the pieces of fish were considering generous portions of other foods I've tried here. I ordered the 3 piece, thinking I'd have a little leftover for dinner, but nah. Lol. It IS enough for a lunch portion, though. Their loaded nachos are still my favorite thing to eat here!

Decided to give Field Day another shot. It was still disappointing, maybe not quite as much as last…read moretime, but still not worthy of anything higher than 3 stars. We were greeted promptly but didn't see our server again - I'm sure she thought that we were going to order from the QR code which was a very reasonable assumption, except the QR code didn't work - only part of the menu was available We finally tracked her down and placed our order. While we waited (and waited) for our food, my husband poured his beer from the wall while I waited (and waited) for my soda. I finally went to the bar to get my own drink. Coke Zero is kept in the back so the bartender had to leave the bar and walk to the kitchen to get my drink. Asking for a refill was wasting breath - I asked for one but never received it. We waited (and waited) for our food. A server tried to give us someone else's chicken tenders but gave up after the second try. We were able to track down our server to check on our food. About 5 minutes later, we finally received our apps - mac & cheese bites (husband liked, I didn't) and fried pickles (I kind of liked, husband did not). I usually really like fried pickles but these were undercooked and not hot. Even if I had wanted them redone, our server was once again AWOL. Our sandwiches came right after we received our apps. I failed to read my previous review. I reordered the Turkey Gouda which I didn't like first time around. This time it was toasted perfectly. The problem? It was literally dripping with the cranberry aioli. This spread was only aioli in name. There was absolutely no creaminess, it was just jelly. Way way way too much jelly. I tried to scrape it off but since it was on both sides of the sandwich, removal was nearly impossible. This sandwich is definitely on my "never order again" list. (But then, I don't plan on coming back). I ordered onion rings as a side. I was served a couple of onion rings that were good but the rest of the onion rings were not rings, they were clumps of rings welded together. I did send these back. The replacements were so undercooked that the onions were nearly raw. My husband ordered the Burger. He did enjoy his burger but agreed that the poor service and overall quality that two visits were two too many.

Good: Great place to watch sports…read moreKid friendly Spacious Indoor/outdoor Games: putt putt, axe throwing, etc. (We didn't play this time) Open late hours Beer wall w a lot of options including seltzer & wine Fun atmosphere!! Bad: Confusing when you come in --wasn't sure if we could just sit if we weren't playing games Slow service to start Busy Poor cocktails, sweet and syrupy. Didn't enjoy mine, but only tried one! Loud Dry wings-not enough sauce, does not come with sides Pricey for quality of food and cocktails Would like to come back to when it's not as crowded, overall great sports watching addition to HSV, fun games for adults & kiddos. Spacious indoor and outdoor seating. Wish we would've sat outside, I'm sure we will be back for a gameday again

The staff was SO nice, and our bartender helped me decide on the dishes I was stuck between. Those Sweet potato black bean tacos are INCREDIBLE!

My Sorority Sister and I went there after my hair appointment around the corner. Last time I was here, my group of sorority sisters enjoyed their house made BBQ chips, Montreal poutine, Asian ribs, and fries. The poutine and ribs were bit hits for our group of four. I recall the giant pretzel I had on my visit here with my coworkers. It came with the bro jo beer cheese dip that I recall being delicious and my Sister and I decided to order the Bacon Wrapped Pretzel Bites app., which is described as "bite-sized pretzel pieces wrapped in bacon with hot honey and bro jo cheese sauce." I typically don't like sweet anything, and I did not care for the "hot honey." If you don't care for sweet either, ask for the sauce on the side. As it was I could sort of cover the sweetness of the honey sauce with the cheese dip. The bacon was cooked well and managed to stay crispy, which was good! We split the Cheesesteak sandwich described as "thinly sliced grilled ribeye, sauteed onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms in melty white American cheese served on a toasted hoagie roll with a choice of side." We went with fries as the side and 86d the mushrooms. Thank goodness for the fries, which were good! This sandwich was a crime against sandwiches! If you've ever had the unfortunate experience of eating Steak-umms, then you know what I'm talking about! I think Ale's Kitchen86d all the toppings except the cheese so we had basically Steak-umm "meat" and some cheese. Ale's Kitchen is in a brewery, Straight to Ale, and I'm happy they do offer two wines: a chardonnay and a red blend. I again had the chardonnay which was, as I recalled from the last visit, flavorless. The staff were friendly, efficient, answered questions, ensured we had everything we needed, were overall kind, and our orders were promptly prepared and delivered to our table. The restrooms were clean!
