" I had a rather disappointing meal here. My salad was not fresh and the chicken was overcooked. The drink selection was okay, but my server seemed disinterested and was busy chatting with coworkers rather than attending to her tables. I was part of a group and none of us were happy with our meals. I would not recommend this place based on this experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Avid diner here! I truly appreciate the nostalgic vibe Brooks 1890 gives off. The food is of good quality, and you can't go wrong with their beer selection. However, one time my steak came out overcooked, which was disappointing. Overall, still a good place to eat regardless of minor hiccups. " (*Curated Review*)

" I found Brooks 1890 to be a delightful little restaurant with a lot of character. The history of the place really added to the experience. I ordered the lasagna and while it wasn't the best I have ever tasted, it was solid and worth the price. The only downside was the noise level; it got quite lively later in the evening. Overall, a nice spot to visit if you're in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a great spot! I went in for the happy hour and was delighted to find their famous popcorn served alongside my beer. The bartender was friendly and recommended the calamari, which was absolutely delicious. I sat at the bar enjoying the lively atmosphere and even chatted with the locals. Will definitely be back for happy hour! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food was decent, but nothing to write home about. I feel like Brooks 1890 has potential, but the execution needs some refinement. Service could also improve; I felt neglected when trying to get my server's attention. Perhaps my next visit will be better since I did enjoy the ambiance. " (*Curated Review*)

" What can I say? Brooks 1890 offers one of the best dining experiences in town! There was something quite charming about the place - maybe the vintage decor or the pleasant conversation with my server. The food was top-notch, and I loved every bite of the steak I ordered. I will definitely spread the word about this hidden gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" The worst experience ever. We were treated poorly by the staff. Our food was cold and served late. I had high hopes for this place based on the reviews, but I feel duped. The place has a nice look to it, but that's about it. Will not return. " (*Curated Review*)
