We went for lunch on a Friday afternoon. Place was busy, we parked in the back. We were seated right away. I ordered a creamcicle crush which was good. To eat I got the Big Mike and fries. Its basically a big patty melt and it was delicious. The strawberry shortcake dessert was tasty as well. It was big so I took half home. All staff were very friendly and our server was was attentive and just all around great. I like that the menu isn't huge but has a good variety of items. My one friend got the Caprese flatbread and enjoyed it. My other friend got the pasta and said it had good flavor. Noodles were not as soft as she prefers but most people don't like pasta noodles overdone. I would definitely recommend.Parking: Park in back using common sense if parking on sides are full.

Secret sauce….ask for the hot sauce; FANTASTIC!!First time callers and had a great Saturday Brunch outing in the 1045ish timeframe with no wait. They offer a succinct breakfast selection , where the Chesapeake Eggs Benedict (bride) and biscuits&gravy (groom) were tasty and we were very pleased.As noted, with the requested hot sauce put everything over the top! *Looking forward to the future bottling and selling of this sauce.*

The Local is such a cute spot! The atmosphere is so homey and hanging with friends is so easy there. We got breakfast and the eggs Benedict, chipped beef, and breakfast burrito were all winners between my friends and I. Totally recommend with how friendly the service is and how good the food is!

Enjoyed my 1st meal at the Local tonight. Was pleasantly surprised at the neat clean contemporary feel of the place. It's not cozy in the traditional sense of the word but the atmosphere was warm and friendly. There are 2 seating sections, one predominantly a bar area with high table seating and a side room with regular height seating. While the tables and chairs are slightly Spartan, there is cushioned bench seating along the wall for those who want a more comfy seat. The wait staff were very attentive, refilling water at least 4 times while we were there. When asked , food suggestions and descriptions were provided. They had a specials menu along with what I would call a regular menu with a nice variety of offerings. Some intriguing appetizer choices included a soup flight, loaded blue cheese chips, and avocado bites. I had a BBQ boneless beef rib dinner with pasta salad and sweet potatoe wedges that were great. The desserts were extensive and the Pecan cake slice we shared was huge, delicious and supplied by a local baker. All in all, I would recommend this place. They even have some vegetarian options so don't hesitate on that score.Kid-friendliness: There are a variety of foods most kids would like
Had the beef bulgogi egg roll and french onion soup, both were spectacular and filled with flavour. Highly recommend!
