Best Live Music Restaurants in Evendale

We happened upon Jags by pure happenstance tonight, the night before Thanksgiving, while traveling to family for the holiday. We were stuck in traffic on 75N and decided we didn’t have it in us to make it all the way to Fort Wayne. 11 hours for a normal 6.5 hour trip is just ridiculous. We booked the Staybridge and I booked a bar reservation at Jags thanks to reviews here, not even realizing it was in the same parking lot! What a fortunate surprise! From walking in the door, to our experience with Dan and his colleague, a lovely gal with rooster earrings, but I can’t recall her name for the life of me, everything was absolutely phenomenal!! The crab bisque, filet and crab cake, the sides, the CARROT CAKE! The espresso martini the Weller CYPB…all of it top notch! Don’t even hesitate or question it. Just go!

As always a fantastic meal at a great place. Food was delicious and although one steak came to the table cooked incorrectly, it was replaced within mere minutes. Hardly noticeable. The sides were equally delicious and the service was spot on from the valet to the wait staff. Enjoyable night for my family of 5!

Our brunch was delicious and it was wonderful to hear a quartet playing in the next room. It was our friends first time in Brew River and they totally enjoyed it.

The food quality was excellent, per usual. We were a large family group (myself, my husband, my teenage & young adult children, and my mom who is visiting from out of state) and everyone loved their food. The seafood night on Tuesday is a great value! Our server, Taylor, was attentive & friendly. Some of us shared a giant slice of carrot cake for dessert and it was one of the best desserts I have ever had. I thought my teenage son was going to lick the plate!

The grazing board was divine. Really good pimento cheese spread and fresh meats. The salad is enormous so plan accordingly. The Amish chicken was very good. Broccolini was scrumptious. Mashed potatoes were full of flavor. Cocktail menu could use some non whisky options. My husband had an old fashioned which he enjoyed but felt it was a bit overpriced. Our service was great!
