The Stubborn Mule

I was super excited to try this place but the food was just ok.

Food was trash the potatoes were cold and we waited more than 30min for a table when we got to the host stand they said that our phone number was accidentally dropped. We found a hair on our food and they rushed us to order said we have 8 min to order when other people were just coming in and ordering form the brunch menu overall the server was very nice.

I like to start with positives because The Stubborn Mule is worth trying. We did burgers and I will be back to try some of the house specials because the menu is appealing and diverse. Burger patties were very well seasoned. Mac N Cheese was a little on the dry side but did taste good. Mash potatoes were awesome. Server was very nice and professional though service was slow. Reservations were honored and we were seated pretty quickly. And we were there on a week night so I could only imagine what a weekend night might be like. I requested mustard on the side for my burger, did not come out with the burger and by the time I got it the bottom of my burger was a sloppy hot mess. But a testament to how good the burger is because I still ate it. Its loud. Like very loud. High ceilings, a lot of glass, and no acoustic treatment that I could see means you're yelling at someone two feet away from you. And the parking is a major pain if you're not wanting to pay for a garage. If you're close, I would ride share. We will be back to give it another whirl.

Great place! Great staff!

Omg this place was amazing! The drinks, food, and service were spot on. Jessica is an amazing server and super friendly and made us feel very welcomed. I would 100% be returning and recommending this place.

The food was good overall. However, the service was not great. It was our first time there, and i can say I'm not in a rush to go back

If 4.5 stars was possible that’s what I would actually rate this place. We called for a party of 15 reservation for 5pm same day around noon on a Saturday and they were able to accommodate us which was amazing. The table was ready when we arrived which is very hit or miss with restaurants with big parties. They had waters on the table ready for us already. When we arrived they said half of our party needed to be there before we were seated which I thought was very fair since many places make the whole party be present before seating. The prices were fair for the place and area and food. I dream about their bruschetta still, it’s not on hard bread! Almost impossible to find that. The drinks were well made and not weak but not over poweringly strong. Our server was very friendly, was very accommodating, and handled the annoyance of a group of 15 splitting the check multiple ways and ordering at different times, which I know is a nightmare for most servers, but she handled it well. She took a group photo for us and even stood up on a chair to get us all in the photo. The location was great and right next to a parking garage and next to the abbey, which we were going to for an event afterwards. The only reason I would give 4.5 stars and not 5 is because the drinks and food came out very slow from the time we got there until the time we left (we stayed about 2.5 hours ordering various apps drinks and food). The first round of drinks took a long time to come, and so did the food. I’m not sure if this was just because we had a large party, or if kitchen staff was behind. Besides the wait for things, no one in our group had any other complaints. Parking: There’s a parking garage right next door, we didn’t look for street parking, I can’t comment on that. Wheelchair accessibility: The outdoor patio seating area is accessible by wheelchair, the inside I don’t think is.
