    Food was great- accommodated the need for a GF bun- the Nachos with the pulled pork is giant and delish. Fish tacos were more filler than fish- IDK that I would order them again. Inside out burger- another large portion and really good. Our waitress was very sweet but her pacing of the meal was in need of improvement- only downside to a very good meal.

    Went for dinner on a Sunday evening. Made a reservation for party of 4. When arrived a few minutes early, we were told that the kitchen was backed up and the manager told the hostess not to seat anyone for another 25 minutes. So we were shunted off to the bar vs. even being able to sit at our table while waiting. Asked the bartender for a lemon slice to put in a glass of water and was told she didn't have any, when there were several on the bar. The cocktails were good and the food was as well, though the steak I had was brought out warm vs. hot and the rice was old and very dry. Burger was tasty as were the tacos and yucca fries. Service people were polite, but back of house definitely needs some improvement in management, as the place wasn't more than 2/3 full. We should have been comped at least a round of drinks or something for the 30 minute delay when we had a reservation. I don't think we will bother going back. Too many other choices in the area.

    We really enjoyed our first time at The Foundry. Our meal was delicious and the drink choices were really fun. Fried Chicken is a do-over for sure!

    The acoustics in this place make it hard to have a conversation at your table. It has a nice ambience but misses on the practical. The food was just okay - rice was hard. Not sure i would go again.

    Quiet night by the rushing water on a beautiful late summer evening watching the sunset in New England. FKT is the perfect setting. Drinks are wonderful, food is excellent and prices are very much in line with a “nice place”. Great place for a group and a gem of a place during all seasons.

    As always Foundry delivers the best food and the best service! Always brings us back here! We brought our daughter this time and cleared her plate which almost never happens. Chef Neugold has a vision with food and all his creations are a dining masterpiece. The patio is as always awesome with the ambient lighting and chill atmosphere. Wait staff is super attentive!
