Local Junction

This was our first visit to Local Junction. They recently opened after new owners remodeled the old Harry's Local. They did a nice job, with lots of seating and a nice bar. I enjoyed the chicken tenders with a side of onion rings for lunch. Both were very good. I liked the crispyness of both of them and dipped them in BBQ sauce. My beautiful wife also had the chicken tenders, along with a house salad. She said they were delicious. At this time they only have a lunch menu for both lunch and dinner. Our server, Montana, was attentive and helpful and let us know that a dinner menu will be coming soon. I look forward to returning for dinner sometime!

Local Junction is a really cool and original place to grab great food! The service is always friendly and the atmosphere is full of energy. Jason Tufts, Managing Partner, is usually all over the restaurant … from greeting guests to all things in the kitchen. He’s a very hands on Managing Partner who genuinely cares about each guest. My wife and I love this place! If you haven’t been, you are missing out.

I'll start out by saying they need to greet people when they come in the door and focus on the customers and not themselves. 4 hostesses at the counter, no one greeted us, it was very chaotic, took a couple that walked in behind us and seated them first. We were seated at a table that hadn't been wiped off in the front room. The tables are so close together near the open 1/2 wall that we couldn't hear ourselves over the party that was next to us. The place is loud! Waitress took our drink order and had to come back twice to inform me that both drinks I tried to order they were out of. Took over 15 mins just for us to get a water and a can of hard cider. Ordered appetizers and food. Waited 1.5 hrs for our order. We asked twice and was told the kitchen was backed up. However, a group of young men, whom were seated about 45 mins after we were, who obviously knew the waitstaff, managed to get their burgers way before we got our food. Once the food finally made it to our table, not appetizers first, but everything all at once, it was gross. Poutine was not eatable. The cheese curds were hard and there was very little gravy on it. The salad dressing was not tasty having way too much vinegar in it. Salad was way over dressed. Steak bites were cold. My husband ordered the fish and said that the only reason the fries had any temperature was because the fish was warm. We had to ask for silverware as did other tables around us. Noticed the lady next to us didn't eat her salad either. Spoke to the manager and was informed that you have to request that the appetizers come out first. What?? How would I know this? It was our first time trying it after being Harry's Local fans. Completely disappointed and will not return.

First time here. Ordered wings which were really good, fresh and crispy. I got the Low Country rub which was kind of an Old Bay type seasoning. My wife got chicken tenders and onion rings. The tenders seemed to be your basic Sysco type frozen variety so nothing special there but the onion rings seemed to be homemade and a really good crispy texture but they were pretty greasy so that was disappointing. There is a full bar with several craft beers on tap and an outside bar and eating area out back. The staff were friendly and very attentive. Overall a great experience but a little disappointed in some of the food choices. I'll definitely go back and try something else. Worth a visit.

Looks nice inside but it was LOUD in there when we went for dinner, making it difficult to have a conversation. Food was just OK. Sauce for the fried mushrooms was good. The rest needed more seasoning. The fried shrimp was bland and the tater tots were not tatering the way they should.😅 A hit of garlic powder, pepper or *something* was needed. Parking is cramped. Overall not a fan.
