Pub 52

Came into Pub52 Saturday night first time visiting for the comedy show. Was a great time! My wife enjoyed taco bites & a martini while I had one of the best old fashions I’ve ever had. We didn’t think of doing much after the comedy show but the Lina band came on and was great made us stay well past the time we had originally thought and had a great tie dancing.

I normally am not one to take the time to write a review, but for this I had to say something. I have been to pub 52 a couple of times after the pandemic, and have always had an experience that I would say was ok, maybe good at best. This past Saturday afternoon I stopped by for lunch and noticed it was far busier than the last time I was there for lunch on the weekend when we were the only table. I quickly noticed there was only one server who was somehow managing an abundance of tables many of which were large in size and scattered all throughout the restaurant inside and out. He greeted us promptly with a smile, and made us feel welcomed despite the overwhelming amount of customers. Others still continued to flood in after we had sat. Our drinks and food did take a bit of time to reach us, but I noticed the server would walk straight to the computer after conversing with each table to (I would assume) ring things in. It seemed there was only one bartender in the restaurant as well. Despite what was an overwhelming surge of people, we were communicated with and still felt attended to and valued. I personally have no problem with long wait times so long as I am not forgotten about. The food and drinks were excellent, and the server was polite, friendly, and handling the business rush professionally and with composure. Having a pleasant experience matters more to me than being in and out of a restaurant. My only complaint would be there seemed to be no manager, and there was again only one sever/bartender, with no person to host, clean tables, or bring the food for the server. I understand labor has been tough for place's recently, and am happy to see this place doing well! I would definitely recommend this place.

Walking in the lady who checked us in was super nice She introduced herself as Ashley and answered a bunch of questions I had. Our waitress Bianca was amazing, she didn't rush us to take our order. She helped us when we had questions about what to order and she recommended drinks that got me hella tipsy and was delicious and refreshing, what a mix right? The atmosphere was very welcoming unlike the place next door. We wanted to sit out side but we were walk-ins so that didn't work out, that didn't change our wonderful experience here! I'm definitely going back!

My second time here to give it another shot as I wasn't impressed by my dinner a few months ago. Sat outside for happy hour and although the restaurant was pretty much empty, our food took a very long time to come out. I believe it was sitting a while because it was not hot when it arrived. I ordered the Margherita Flatbread and it did not come with any basil and the crust tasted slightly undercooked. I ate 2 pieces and left the rest. My friend also had to get up to go find a staff person to pay the tab. With there being maybe 2 other parties in the restaurant I think the service could've been a bit better.
