Ambiance is importance but people are generally interested in the food. Unfortunately our table was located by a speaker and the sound level was not conducive for conversation. We asked a few times to have it turned down. The manager (owner?) came by and said he couldn’t just adjust one speaker and thus did nothing. Recommend changing the angle of your important speaker.
This is an award-winning restaurant with an award-winning chef, and a long list of accolades, so it has a lot to live up to - and it absolutely does. The Lockeland Table is truly a first-class restaurant. Since opening 12 years ago, it still has a cozy, deep-rooted neighborhood vibe. This review is based on our latest visit on Feb. 16, 2024. The steak, pizza, soup, salad, appetizers, dessert, and drinks were all excellent and each stood out as clearly having high-quality ingredients. I cannot say enough about the phenomenal service. Our waitress was nothing short of excellent. The timing of each course was impressive, each dish arriving just as we finished the previous dish. It was a truly enjoyable and memorable experience, and we will be back. Oh yeah, make sure to make a reservation. It’s a busy place.
Outside of downtown but worth the trip. Food is creative local. Service was great and friendly. Cozy spot.
I have to admit, frankly, the place is organized and more than wonderful. Dinner with friends was very delicious, but I wish the size of the appetizers would be increased to suffice everyone. Thank you very much.
Food was awesome. I would order the bone marrow for all 3 courses! Lol. Instead my friend and I ordered pork chop and chicken entrees. Dessert is a must, the chocolate a la mode
Decent spot, but food needs work in a few areas. Significantly overpriced given the quality. Empenadas: Smoked chicken. Mushy, not great, not bad. The chimi helps. Solid crust. Pizza: Sauce is flavorful, but (and this is a theme) over salted. Crust stodgy, very undercooked. Pork chop. Ordered recommended medium, arrived very well, dry, very badly over salted. These are probably over brined, and then re-salted in the pan. Not a great cut to use for this, there are fattier chops that are much better for double cut and brined. Served over stodgy Mac and cheese, but that's typical in the south, with pasta cooked down to goo. Chicken: Badly over salted. Swordfish: Only somewhat over salted. Everyone at the table felt that everything was a salt bomb. For a menu that's significantly overpriced (it's high by about 20%), the food needs to be spot on, when seasoning is this far afield on every single dish, it's a three star spot. Will return for another shot, lovely vibe, decent drinks, good service.
