This place won the vote for a late lunch. It was certainly a good visit. They listed 12 daily soups, along with a planned sandwich menu, as well as sides. It was a pleasant surprise to find out they offered free taster samples of the soups, so you knew exactly what to expect. Loved that. While I sampled at least 5-6 different flavors, I landed on loaded baked potato. It was a tough decision over a wonderful lobster bisque, a creamy Wisconsin cheese soup and a delightful French onion. Believe me, it was a tough choice. I paired that with an Italian sandwich for the meal. All smiles when it came down to flavor! My family thoroughly enjoyed all they had as well. The only drawback for not awarding this 5 stars for our visit was pricing. It was pretty spendy. The portions were good. The food was good. The price...not so good. 4 meals and drinks...a tad over $78. (Included taxes) It 's tough as a small business owner to make ends meet and still stay competitive in the market. Hopefully this location continues to prosper in today 's restaurant realm. Now again, I 'm not disappointed in what I got. Service was friendly and helpful. Restaurant was clean and organized during our visit. I 'd recommend it. And likely return in the future.

Also had a salad that saved the day but disappointed in the Ladled Lobster

It had a good flavor I couldn't quite figure out what it was, but it was great. You can order off their website for pick up and I did a build your own. I will say it was $10 for chicken and several toppings...is it worth $10? Maybe. It did taste good. It did fill me up (but that doesn't take much). But while it had great options to add, it wasn't as much ingredients as I'd have thought with that price (comparing it to Bibimbap bowls). The bowl reminded me a bit of Core Life Eatery's bowls, and I mean that in a good way!

They took the ham sandwich on French bread and microwaved it. The sandwich was chewy and the juice off the ham was dripping. It was so gross. The soup wasn’t much better. The three young girls need some training. I definitely would never go back. Go next door to Barry’s!
