The Ale House Columbia - River Hill

Food was ok. Service terrible. Oswald spent most of his time chatting with other waiters. Took forever to get drink refills and silverware. Hostess that seated us had little to no personality and appeared to be bothered to even have to seat us. In general, Alehouse is overrated. Better quality and experiences can be found at other restaurants in the area

The mussels weren't fresh and had to be returned. The onion soup was salty. To be frank, we had already said we'd never come back last year when we noticed a declined in the quality of the food, now we will never come back again ever. Our server was gracious though.

Food and beer was great, but service was bad. We waited 32 minutes after we were seated before our server come to our table. We was unaware 2 menu items were unavailable from the kitchen and after our meal we had to walk around the restaurant looking for him to close our check.

The Ale House is a go to for us for brunch, lunch and dinner. Food is consistently good and they frequently have seasonal specials. It can be noisy at times. Love that they take reservations!!

Brandon our waiter was attentive yet not annoying. He was on his A game for sure. He makes you want to come back and ask for him. Food was good and it was great to sit outside on a lovely evening.
