Notch is a phenomenal restaurant and has delicious food. My husband and I went here recently and had excellent service. From the moment we walked in the door we were greeted with a smile and our server, Aindrea was fantastic. She really took the time to answer our questions and gave recommendations for food selections. Safe to say, we left with a full belly and a smile on our faces. Not only was Aindrea suburb, the staff overall made our experience great. We will definitely be coming here again in the future and highly recommend a night out at Notch!

I had afternoon drinks and appetizers with my friend. We sat out on the porch which was so nice. Drinks and food were great. Our waiter was above and beyond. Will definitely go back!

We had heard such good things about Notch. Sadly the lunch crew today didn’t uphold the expectations. Food was good, no refills on the iced tea, extra water was provided. When you walk in the restaurant the foyer floor was filthy, it needs vacuumed. Ladies room was filthy, neither toilet was acceptable for use. Does no one check this?! Lot of staff sitting around while the bartender was our waiter. Disappointed, expected more based on reviews. No need to return here.

2nd time having dinner at the bar and tonight was just beyond disappointing. 2 bartenders on duty- 1 female/1 male. The female took care of us so I guess that meant that the male didn’t have to speak to us, because he never did. We were seated directly in front of the taps and he poured at least 6 beers directly in front of – literally eye level with us and 1foot away from us – but never said one word to us. Not one. Really makes a for a warm and welcoming environment!

Notch is simply amazing. The service, the food, the drinks… everything is top notch! This was honestly the best burrito I’ve ever had. We shared Buffalo chicken egg rolls and enjoyed the cocktail and draft beer list. We were so happy with our food and can’t wait to visit again.

When we walked to Notch they asked if we had a reservation, we didn’t so they directed us to the bar! We were blessed our bartender was Lucas omgggg he did excellent recommendations of drinks, food and appetizers! He entertained us and treated us amazing! Best Mojitos ever! Just ask for him. The food was such an experience! Thanks Lucas for making us feel so welcome ❤️

Went here for a date after being recommended it, food was great, drinks were good, service was terrible but she was trying. She was just very slow and didn’t really check up or ask questions when she was confused. Food came out before the app, got the charcuterie board asked her what the meat and cheeses were said she had to check came back and only said smoked Gouda. She must of been new or something would come back for the food

One of our favorite places to dine! We absolutely love the ambiance, food, drinks, and service! Shout outs to Faith and Jesse, really above and beyond service provided. My boyfriend and I loved everything we ordered including the Dealer’s Choice cocktails! I love that as an option and our entrees and apps were incredible. Great taste and excellent portion sizes. We will be back again soon!
