Q: negative

A: The coffee is great but the service was horrendous. Couldn't keep up with orders and had a bad attitude with the customers. Not worth the money.

Q: positive

A: I do not understand why the rating on this bar is so poor! The service was amazing when I was there never going long without being checked on. Our food was very tasty as well! There was a very good selection of beer on tap to keep you from getting thirsty too. I recommend the "shock top" beer as it is one of the more tasty American beers that I have ever tasted. When I can find it back home I pick it up too. Even during US college football playoffs of some kind I was able to watch the Outdoor Classic hockey game with a bunch of other hockey fans around one of their many big screens. I highly recommend this sports bar! The waitress's outfits don't hurt the eyes either! You are even able to watch the fountain show across the way as well from the seats on the outside of the bar proper and that is quite interesting as well.

Q: negative

A: Ok so if you sit in the top row you cannot see the whole screen. The wall blocks the bottom 1/3 of the screen and they know it. Poor waiter knows about the problem and did all he could but in the end it's still bs. Premium cost for sub par seats. Be warned this place sucks for watching a movie. Go to arrowhead instead it works.

When I walked into to Herbs and Rye, it was almost pitch black. It took a minute for my eyes to adjust to the darkness. I was greeted by the hostess and walked over to the bar. I looked around and immediately was reminded of Fangtasia from True Blood. There's an old school vibe with the brick walls, red and black wallpaper, chandeliers. and private dark leather booths. The background music was modern and made me feel like I was a vamp tramp. (Yeah, I'm a dork.) I know the theme is prohibition but I couldn't help but think of Fangtasia. Needless to say, I really dug the vibe and decor. My friends and I came for happy hour. I was a little disappointed that cocktails weren't on the happy hour menu as I read about how well crafted and delicious they are. I was on a budget so I settled on a draft beer which was like $4-5 (I can't recall). The best part about happy hour is the food. Unlike other restaurants where you get small bites off of the appetizer menu, here you get 50% off hefty entrees. I ordered a Kansas City Steak Strip with Truffle Mac and Cheese for $15! My husband got the Flat Iron Steak with Jalapeno Cream Corn. We all ordered different items off of the happy hour food menu and everything tasted like it was fine dining. When our waiter mentioned their homemade donuts, we were sold. The donuts came with two types of dipping sauce but I preferred to eat them plain. They were so fresh and fluffy and definitely worth saving room for. Service was wonderful. We never had an empty glass. Our waiter was friendly and answered all of our questions. I would definitely come back again to try the cocktails and to have another perfectly cooked steak with the mouth watering truffle mac and cheese. Maybe next time I'll sit at the bar and try to look dark and mysterious to match the vibe of this place.
