Lockbox

Had dinner one night and came back again for brunch because it was so good! The labneh toast was SPECIAL!

Pros- Service, ambiance, decor, shared board was fantastic. Pepper jelly was done well, biscuits were flaky and buttery. Great job on the pickles and chow chow. The deviled egg spread was an easy 8/10 too. The sweet potatoes were good but the roasted garlic yogurt tasted mote like flavorless sour cream Cons- The rest of our food. My wife's dish was the Parisian gnocchi. One of my favorite dishes to have but this one was DOA. The gnocchi was not toasted just boiled then it looks like they tried to saute it but they failed and it just became a pale dumpling. The brown butter was non existent, again another reason for the lack of toasted gnocchi. When they say "carrot" they mean Carrot. There were slices of carrots and this thick sauce of what I'm guessing was Carrot juice that was thickened to the point it could have been used as a jelly. Herbs were lacking it just had a flavorless green sprinkle of what I would think is parsley but whos to know from the overpowering flavor of the orange "goop." The Hog Chop. When I hear "Hog" I assume Boar. I was wrong and that's not a big deal at all. The Chop was flavorful with a great sear and smoke. The down side was the temperature it was cooked to. When I eat at a restaurant like Lockbox I assume that they won't cook their pork well done, especially when the server doesn't take a temp. Assuming MR/M for pork at an fine dining restaurant is pretty standard. Well they made sure that my pork was done. It was done 10 mins before they thought it would be a good idea to say it's finished cooking. The butternut puree was smooth but fell flat. The Brussels were shaved into a slaw which was the best part of the plate. There was no hint of blue cheese as advertised. Shaker Lemon Pie I love lemon anything. It's my go to for a sweet finish but this was far from sweet. Shaker Lemon should be sweet with small pockets of bitterness from the whole lemons. This was all Lemon no curd. It was so bad that I had to spit it out. The lack of cooking of the Lemon before was apparent. Big chunky bitter pockets of undercooked Lemon with no sweetness killed the experience. To top it off the malt ice cream was half melted when it arrived. At least the crust was good. I hate leaving this review. I feel like a jerk but at the same time I feel like it is needed. You may ask why I didn't speak to a manager. It was a busy Friday night and I wasn't about to ruin someone's night. They are busy and all they could have done was comped my meal. I still ate everything, except the pie that was inedible, so I have no issue paying but the next Friday when we go out it for sure won't be at Lockbox.

Food was amazing and so was the service!!

Went here for a friends day and it was such a good time we were the only ones there but our waitress was so sweet, the food was yummy. 10/10 all around definitely recommend

My family members and I ordered steak and it was the worst steak I have ever had. Don’t get their steak. If you’re looking for good steak this is not the place to go. Too pricey and food is not that good Parking: Valet parking was very helpful
