How have I not eaten at JF before?! I feel like I have been missing out. I visited on a Saturday…read morefor lunch and sat at the bar. The whole place feels quaint and local, yet refined and classy. First off I love that it's a full service bar and eating at the bar is no problem. Second I absolutely love they sell pitchers of beer. Not many taps, but still pitchers. And it's mostly local beer. I was with my husband and we wanted to try several things and took recs from the bartender who was awesome. We ordered the pork dumplings, the scallion pancake and the spicy sichuan hot karaage rice bowl. And we made it a combo with miso soup and an egg roll for $4. The pork dumplings were SO good. I could eat a meal of those alone. They were dense and flavorful and the dipping sauce was slightly spicy. The scallion pancake was a surprise delight. It was crispy and not too greasy again with a delicious dipping sauce. The miso soup...chefs kiss. It looked like ordinary miso soup but there was something extra that we really loved!! And the egg roll was big and juicy and fried and wonderful. It's a veggie egg roll but don't let that fool you. So much flavor and again the sweet chili dipping sauce left us drooling. Most of those sauces are too sweet but this was the perfect blend and the perfect spice level. The rice bowl was full of flavor!! The spice on this is quite a lot so make sure you can handle heat if you order the "hot" version. But again lots of flavor not just hot. Thank god we didn't order anymore food because this was plenty for the two of us to leave full and honestly we could've had leftovers. We will 1000% be visiting again and fully understand the hype around this phenomenal restaurant!!

Asian food traditionalists will think I'm blasphemous for saying this, but I liked the food at…read moreJackrabbit Filly. All the dishes we ordered, from the miso soup and pierogis with salsa macha, to the karaage-don and peanut noodles, were savory and satisfying to eat. The texture and appearance of the chicken for the karaage-don bore more of a resemblance to General Tso's chicken with its battered and crunchy exterior, and it didn't quite have the tender and juicy interior I was hoping for, but I enjoyed the lemon mayo pairing which resulted in a flavorful finish. The Peanut Noodles reminded me of certain iterations of Dan Dan Noodles and certainly tasted fine on its own, but adding the thick chunks of bacon/pork belly was essential in elevating this dish to the next level. The restaurant was very lively on a Thursday afternoon, and the staff very warm and inviting throughout our meal. My drink hit the mark for me, and I found the cocktail menu fun and creative. In fact, I would say "fun and creative" summed up our overall experience at Jackrabbit Filly. Just ask my daughter, who started dancing the entire lunch the moment she saw the disco lights in the bathrooms.

So I know we came during RW so I will not be judging this place based on the pace of service bc it…read morewas VERY busy and that would be unfair. Despite the longer wait times, our server was very nice and doing her best to take care of us. My review is solely on the food because the whole point of RW is to bring in more business during a slow month to invite more people to try more places and showcase their food. I appreciate that they had GF options since my hubby is celiac. We got the Tom khá (coconut soup) - I do prefer mine a bit more savory so a dash of fish sauce from the spice caddy made it taste better. 4/5 Chicken Larb- I didn't remember if this dish is usually served on the colder side. But the temp of the chicken was below room temp. Which for me I didn't mind bc I prefer my food not hot lol I know it's weird but perhaps for someone else it wouldn't have been as pleasant. I thought it was packed with flavor and the lettuce cups were refreshing with it. We didn't get that many larger pieces so it kind of turned into like a Larb salad towards the end with the inside pieces. 4/5 Panang curry- I do prefer my curries to be a bit more creamy, but this one was a bit loose. We did squeeze like 3 limes and added more fish sauce to it bc it lacked that depth of flavor we're used to in a curry. That first bite of curry usually tells us if it's right on point or needs a bit of this or that. 3/5 Beef Pad Thai- this was one of the best pad Thais I've eaten. I was pleasantly surprised and couldn't stop eating it. I like the type of noodle they used which was a bit thinner but the texture was perfect as well as the flavor. 5/5 Again, I do want to give this place another chance on a normal day but it was still a decent experience despite any delays. I would want to try some different dishes off their regular menu next time.

It's a great trendy location on the edge of Park Circle, conveniently has a small parking lot in addition to street parking and a tiny city lot close by, woman owned, and decorated super warm and inviting. So I really really wanted to like this place. Maybe it was the day I chose to go. I used YELP to reserve a spot on the waitlist, and met a friend for brunch before going into Highwater. Maybe they were unusually slammed. I ordered a Buzzed Donut, coffee rubbed bacon, with an over-easy egg on a pop biscuit doughnut with a side of shredded hashbrowns & mocha dip. Sounds amazing and unique! But the one I was served was burnt, hard, and had obviously been sitting under some heat too long and was past the point of being served. I politely brought it to my server's attention both dark coloring, hard texture, and burnt taste were affected, and while she did inquire, the answer was that it was the last one so a re-order was not an option. I was not trying to make a stink to my server or make my friend late to the festival, and they couldn't rush a new item, so I ate around the hard/burnt part politely. When the bill came, the server informed me she took 15 percent off that item. Everyone has off days, and I really wanted to like this place but the more I think about it the crazier it is to think I paid 85 percent of a meal that shouldn't have been served. When I worked in food service, I would have never served an item in this condition. I would have simply apologized that I didn't realize the kitchen was out, taken the item off the bill, and brought a replacement item or dessert at no charge. I had excitedly announced it was my first time trying this place when the server first introduced herself, and I'm just disappointed it wasn't 100 percent wonderful.

I ordered the duck BLT with fries cooked in duck fat, and wow--easily one of the best meals I've had in a long time.

We also tried the wings, which were just as impressive--perfectly cooked with great flavor and just the right amount of kick. To top it all off, their rotating cocktail was creative, refreshing, and paired perfectly with the food. The vibe is laid-back and fun, the staff was friendly and attentive, and everything came out quickly. It's the kind of spot you go to once and immediately start planning your next visit. Five stars all the way.

The shrimp and crayfish porboy was large and tasted so good, man the seasoning on the fries was so good. The batter on the fish was amazing as well. We left with food to spare and already planning on what we will get next time we're in town. And only 15min from the airport. Great job Lola!!

LOLA does crawfish boils on Tuesdays, and we went specifically for that. They offer a few different…read moreoptions--$17.99 for one pound, around the mid-$20s for two pounds (don't remember exact), and $39 for three pounds. The crawfish was cooked well and had great flavor. The only thing we noticed was they were a bit juicy--we think they may not have soaked in the boil as long, which usually helps absorb more flavor. My husband really enjoyed them (this trip was mostly for him!), but they were a little spicy for me. I ended up getting a Caesar salad with fried crawfish tails instead, and it was huge--I only made it through about half. We also got margaritas during happy hour--both were really good. I had the lychee margarita, and my husband got the mango with a Cajun rim. Service was very good--our waiter was attentive and friendly. The only small downside was that we did feel a little rushed. It does say on the menu that they ask guests not to stay longer than 1.5 hours, so just something to keep in mind. They are pet-friendly, and we sat outside. There was plenty of outdoor seating, and the tables had umbrellas, which was nice. The only other thing we weren't thrilled about was the credit card surcharge--it was around 3-3.5%, which feels a bit high, especially since most people don't carry cash anymore. Overall, a great spot--especially if you're a crawfish fan!

I've been eating at EVO for over 13 years and will continue to do so. In the category of what I…read morerefer to as fancy pizza, they are my favorite. The salads are great, the pizzas are great, and my favorite pork trifecta still hits the spot every time. With that being said, I have noticed some changes over the years. The meats on the pork trifecta have all changed and in my opinion, to a slightly lower quality. Obviously, prices and suppliers change over time at a business, but I do miss the old way they used to make it. I also have been getting a different cook on it each time. Sometimes it's got a heavy char all around and sometimes it's too light and no crunch. As I started with, I love EVO and will continue to go, but I hope they can get some consistency back to how they do their pies. It's not cheap and for that reason I expect a superior product.
