The service was great. Our server, Cathy, was friendly and attentive. The menu has a large variety of options and the food was deliciously unique. It isn't a very large place, but the seating wasn't crowded. I found it quaint and enjoyable.

As always our visit to Hardware was a lovely time! We love how family friendly it is there but also feels upscale and cozy! We had the Burrata app and brisket tacos which were fabulous. I always get the Ragu as it is never disappointing and I crave it when I don’t get it. My son absolutely devoured his kids chicken fingers - wish there was an adult version of this plate! Service was wonderful and attentive too!

We had a wonderful lunch today. The food was outstanding, but what made it really special today was our server Kyle. He was so sweet and kind, patient as well. He was fully versed with the menu . We asked him what he thought was outstanding and he gave us some excellent choices. Kyle helped to make our Christmas celebration even nicer! Thank you, Kyle!
