Drinks: Pomegranate Sour Fauxtini, Cold Brew Carajillo, Strawberry Jalapeño Mockarita
From the very first visual impression, the BBQ Bison Meatloaf was deeply disappointing. The presentation lacked any culinary intention what arrived at the table was shapeless, unstructured, and visually unappealing. The bison itself had an off-putting texture and an unpleasant flavor that overshadowed the entire dish.
The side dishes failed to redeem the plate. The spinach was severely overcooked, reduced to a lifeless, watery mass with no remaining identity or freshness. The only element that worked was the mashed potatoes, which were smooth, properly seasoned, and comforting. The added French fries were also acceptable crispy and well-fried but the onion rings were greasy, heavy, and frankly inedible.
As for the mocktails, the experience was equally underwhelming:
• The Pomegranate Sour Fauxtini was the only drink that was remotely enjoyable.
• The Cold Brew Carajillo tasted diluted and forgettable.
• The worst of all was the Strawberry Jalapeño Mockarita, which was aggressively unbalanced, watery, and unpleasant, with the jalapeño completely overpowering the drink in the worst possible way.
This was not simply a flawed dish it was a failure in execution, balance, and respect for ingredients. The bison, which should be the star, was mishandled beyond recovery.
This dish does not meet even meet solid casual dining standards.
Pot roast tender, blue cheese burger great
The chips were kinda salty but there were so many interesting appetizers. I want to try the French Onion pastry puff next time
Nice outdoor area, love that they’re donating to Habitat for humanity with gingerbread houses
When I first sat down at the bar, I was handed a menu where every page was stuck together with something sticky. I ordered a Cosmopolitan and the Campfire Pot Roast from the bartender. While waiting for my late lunch, I sipped on my drink, which was fine, but when my meal finally arrived, it was a huge disappointment.
The bartender told me to be careful because the dish would be warm to the touch. That would have been fine, except the food itself was lukewarm. I’ve ordered this dish many times, and I know what it should taste and feel like. This time, the camp FIRE was nonexistent, it seemed as if it had been cooked on embers and served half-cold. The entire meal was terrible because of it.
What made things worse was the lack of service. The bartender who served me never once came back to check if everything was okay not even when my Cosmopolitan was empty. No offer of a second drink, no “How’s everything tasting?” nothing. The only reason I was able to pay and leave was because another bartender came on shift, and I asked her for my check.
One bad service experience can erase all the good ones before it. Unfortunately, that’s what happened here. Sticky menus, a lukewarm meal, and inattentive service have ruined Lazy Dog for me, despite many prior visits.
