The Patio At Mountain View - Ewing

Terrible. I was allowed to make a reservation yet when we got there it was not honored. The explanation was that it was a standing room only event. Then WHY let me make the reservation??!! Service would have been zero if I had not met one nice woman, whom I believe was involved in management who took care of all my needs once we found her. I am answering yes below because on any ordinary night it is a fine place with live music on the weekends.

Came here solely for the band Spanky 's Garage, whom we 've seen a bunch of times in various venues and were glad to see them in a new spot. Checked the website first and they noted that they were kid friendly, so we did opt to bring our two little ones (4 and 7). My only real gripe is that for being kid-friendly, it was a bit surprising not to see any menu offerings for them. Before asking, the waitress did offer that they could make anything basic for the kids without a problem. They ordered a basic cheeseburger/ff and pasta with red sauce. And while I suppose it 's my fault for not asking first, they were charged at $16/$14 respectively, the equivalent of their closest regular menu counterparts. It 's pretty rare nowadays that places don 't have reduced portions/prices for little ones who clearly aren 't going to consume too much. Overall, this was a nice place with a cool vibe and a great band. We 'll more than likely be back.

We were surprised to see the big open high cieling room, very impersonal. It was freezing inside, the vents are over the tables so people were sitting in sweaters and coats. There was zero ambiance and people were yelling at each other across the room. We had a drink and their version of nachos. We left and will not return. Our server was a nice young woman who tried to please. Menu is very limited and non creative.

Good spot. Nice outside dining area on the porch . Nice view. Wait staff Juliana was friendly. Good food. Plenty of parking. Place is kept nice. Prices OK. I had the cauliflower pizza which was good.

The food and service were outstanding. While we can't hold the restaurant responsible for the weather, we had to sit indoors due to the busy and noisy atmosphere. I'm looking forward to returning on a nicer day to enjoy the patio!
