“Sat at the bar with window view, Mr Peter who is one of the owners is super nice guy and Professional, he recommended some cocktails and they all tasted great. Serena was the girl who has big smile and always fill my water glass haha. look forward to trying their food next time”
“The food was outstanding, easily one of the best Caesar salads I’ve ever had, and the Tiger Burger was incredibly tender, practically melting in your mouth. The Old Fashioned was expertly crafted and perfectly balanced. The service was friendly and attentive overall, though we did notice our drinks sitting at the bar for a while before being brought to the table, and the second round took even longer to arrive. Despite that minor issue, the overall experience was excellent, and we’ll definitely be back.”
“The Old Tiger is located in the former Jeffersons Pub/Zach’s on the Tracks. The renovations made inside are stunning. It is an open space with a beautiful bar. It definitely has a restaurant ambiance (dare I say upscale) vs a pub. They also have a nicely shaded patio for outdoor dining. The menu is limited, but the two items we had were cooked perfectly. The “OLD TIGER BURGER” is a double smash burger that is OUTSTANDING! It is served with tiger sauce, sharp American cheese, pickle & lettuce. The tiger sauce and pickles make this burger. The pickles are more like a pickled cucumber. It comes with mixed greens and a mild vinaigrette dressing. The upgraded fries are thin and seasoned perfectly with salt. Our second dish was the “PASTA AL LIMON.” The tagliatelle tasted freshly made and was served al dente. It is served with lemon cream sauce that is very light with a hint of lemon and spring peas. It is topped with grana padano cheese. I opted to add grilled chicken breast, which was delicious. I can highly recommend both of these dishes. 10/10”
“The renovations have really transformed the space into a modern, comfortable restaurant. The service team was attentive and responsive to requests, and they kept our water glasses filled throughout the meal. The menu is on the smaller side, but everything we tried was flavorful. Their extensive wine selection is a great bonus.”
“This is a new restaurant so we need to give them some latitude to work out the kinks. However, when we dined there on Saturday our impression was mixed. First, they didn’t have any kind of soft drinks. The server indicated they were having problems with getting a distributor. They could’ve easily gotten some Diet Coke and other products at the local store. They also ran out of Steak fillet. We had 10 people which can be a challenge, but it took the kitchen a long time to get our food out even though the restaurant wasn’t that busy. The food was good but my soup was not hot. The steak that was available was good. The bread is Excellent. Our server was very amicable and conscientious. Overall, we had a good time, but if this restaurant wants to be successful at these price points they need to up their overall quality and broaden the menu a little bit.”
