Based on the OpenTable menu, it didn’t seem like The Pom Court would be tapas-style, so it was unexpected when I made reservations thinking we’d be having dinner. Instead, we were served overpriced tapas that seemed like they might’ve been prepared in the microwave. That said, the customer service was excellent, and the bartender really knows how to make a great drink, which definitely enhanced the experience.

Excellent experience overall. Brandon (apologize for spelling if different) was great. He gave us a solid recommendation on the Chicken Biscuit. It was delicious and I highly recommend it! Food portions were good, and price was fair. Will definitely be back!
