    Our first experience at whisky ridge was just good. I made the reservation 3 weeks ago and we were sat right by the hostess station & kitchen . The noise level was loud. Our food was good but sent an order back with undercooked seafood and was promptly brought another. Portion sizes huge . Waitress was kind understood needing the replacement and even offered dessert for us to share .

    This is my third time dining here and we love it! The atmosphere is great and I love the decor- especially the outside patio on a beautiful day!. The food is good but not 5 star. I’ve only had the salads and the pablano burger.

    Great lunch experience. Went for a late lunch on a Friday. Service, food, and facilities were excellent. Started with their brisket nachos - very tasty. My party had the chicken fried chicken, fish tacos, and 1/2 Reuben with bowl of gumbo. All was excellent. The value was fair given the high quality. Cocktail menu was solid. Whiskey Ridge is a more upscale addition to the local dinning options. We will definitely be returning.
