    Green beans with the meatloaf were very under cooked. Chef needs to go to green bean cooking school.

    At 5 pm the bar was VERY crowded - glad we made a reservation. Sat upstairs and it was so soooo noisy, it was difficult to hear my partner and we were yelling throughout our dinner. Service was good, but not enough servers to make the service run smoothly. We had good Angus Bergers and split a roasted beet salad. I love this bar and frequently choose it for Happy Hour, but the noise chased us outlast night. We left early after eating.

    We went for lunch on MLK Day and the bar was quiet and the perfect place for our birthday gathering. They were out of a couple of the drinks on the menu which was unusual for a bar, but the overall experience was a very nice one. Food was excellent and good portions. Service was OK - our server did comp a dessert for us since we were celebrating a birthday.

    Unfortunately, we had a poor experience at The Corner Bar after having several great experiences in the past. We ordered and appetizer with our drinks. The appetizer took 40+ minutes to arrive. During this 40 minutes our server did not get us silverware nor did she offer to refill our drinks. We ordered drinks but they never came Our appetizer came out about 2 minutes before our food. When the appetizer and food arrived only 1 of us had silverware. The cook who delivered our food was kind enough to get us all silverware. The server came by and we again asked for more drinks. Eventually, the bartender delivered our drinks to the table. My water glass ran dry. I saw a water pitcher nearby and opted to help myself. Unfortunately, it was empty. We were hoping to get a quick bite. unfortunately, the dinner took several hours of waiting. On our drive home we all commented on how this was the worst service we had seen in years. We won't be going back.

    it was very noisy, but its a bar. Food took forever, but it was Dec 26 so i am sure you were swamped. It was good, although a little cold.

    Always love this place cozy on a winter night. Note there are stairs so not a great option for everyone. We had a lovely Christmas day meal and everything was delicious. Service was excellent.

    I loved the potato skins and the trout. The gluten free chocolate torte could have been better, but the coffee was outstanding. My friend enjoyed the steak frites. She said the steak was very tender. I would have preferred the main restaurant, but we couldn't get a reservation at the time we wanted. The Boulderado is very popular, so you have to make reservations far in advance for holidays, especially for the mezzanine.
