Great pretzel as an appetizer--disappointed that no mustard was available (we were told they were out), as only one of us could eat the tasty cheese dip (lactose intolerance). Bison meatloaf is always good, but this time it needed a bit more of the gravy (meatloaf was moist, but needed some for potatoes). One of us tried the New England corned beef dinner for the first time. Flavor-wise the corned beef was far, far better than your standard corned beef, though one slice was tremendously fatty to the point of there being more fat than meat (I expect fat in brisket, but this was more than expected). Sides (carrots, boiled potatoes, and cabbage with a bit of spice) were flavorful and well cooked. Overall, would order the New England dinner again. Unfortunately, as usual, there was no room for dessert--maybe one of these days....

Awesome design as soon as you walk in the door it feels one of a kind! People were amazing and so kind, the food was to die for and so filling. The drinks were so good and everything was as affordable as going to a chain restaurant- Overly satisfied and will return often❤️

Very interesting menu with lots of appealing options. Our party of four picked all different dishes and everyone enjoyed. The pretzel was a great appetizer to share. Gina was a super friendly and attentive server. We had a great time.

The new menu has a few new things as well as some tried-and-true favorites (the diablo dish!). The bar continues to put out good cocktails, wine and beer at reasonable prices. The staff is helpful with specifics, like tequila options. We went on a Saturday at 730pm and were at the tail-end of a reservation for 45 post-kids' soccer tournament...it was loud but only lasted until about 8pm. We very much want EK to succeed, so were THRILLED to see them so busy despite the temporary inconvenience.

My mom and I had brunch at Everyday Kitchen and I highly recommend it! The food was fantastic, servers were friendly and efficient, and the restaurant atmosphere was beautiful. Can't wait to return soon and try more dishes!

Food was excellent, drinks were very good and more unique. Very attentive staff. We were an hour early for our reservation and they accommodated us no problem. Would definitely go back when I am in the area, much better than anything you'd find on campus.
Very good atmosphere and food was delicious. Really good cocktail menu and some great local brews. Service was a bit relaxed, so allow yourself time to dine. Will dine here again for sure!

Great brunch. Made a mistake in trying a breakfast sandwich shop at the university recommended by yelp. One look at the menu and we make the decision to choose Everyday Kitchen, which was the right choice. I had a bacon egg and cheese sandwich and my wife had the eggs Benedict. We shared a Brussels sprouts with tomatoes and onions and everything was delicious. If you see a recommendation for “Cracked” - change you mind and get a real brunch at everyday kitchen.

I was really looking forward to the juicy pork chop, but was sad to learn it was no longer on the menu. However, we ordered the Prime Rib w/ Potato Brie Tart instead and it was unbelievable. The brie made the potato tart so creamy and smooth. Just outstanding and will become my favorite dish there.

My husband had a bourbon Manhattan and it was made perfectly. He had the turkey horseshoe and I had the salmon tacos. Both meals where flavorful and seasoned well. Having the pickled vegetables on the salmon really gave it an extra boost. Looking forward to our next time.
Apparently, it was the first day with their new menu, so they had run out of several items. Server seemed inexperienced or overwhelmed. However, I love the concept of this place and the food was very tasty. Mac and cheese OMG! I will return.

We ate here for lunch on our way to drop our daughter for a summer camp in nearby Monticello. The staff was very friendly and engaging. The food was fantastic. The burger stood out, and crab cake was also very good. Only comment is the portion on the crab Benedict was on the small end for a brunch menu. But overall the experience and food quality offset that.

We weren't really impressed with the decor in the restaurant. When the food came, it was good but it was not $91.00 good which is what it costed for two people, two meals, two drinks, and an appetizer. I can go to a higher end place like Baxter's or Ribeye for that price and get better quality food.

We had lunch here in honor of my daughter's college graduation. We enjoyed the ambience, and the food was very good. The menu selections were varied and creative. I would highly recommend Everyday Kitchen!

The food was good, no complaints on the flavor. Made to order so it is fresh when it arrives at your table. The background music was relaxing. The price of the items was a bit higher than I was expecting. Overall it was a good experience and I will be back in the future.
