    We love Hardware! We always order the medium board to start. It has a variety of 3 meats and 3 cheeses and has something for every palette. I always order the Bison burger for my entree. It's amazing! My hubby had the brisket, which he says is 'very good and very tender'. Never a bad meal. The service is always great, and we love that we never feel rushed. They have many drink options, and desserts are tasty!
