Needed to meet my family at a halfway point between MI and CLE, so we came here despite the poor reviews. Service, food, and atmosphere all were fantastic. Not sure what happened with everyone else, but I don’t have a single complaint and my family enjoyed everything we ordered(burgers, fries, salads and pretzel bites).

I’ve been here 3 times. The wings are good burgers have poor seasoning and flavor salads are ok, The service is the reason I give a 2. The bar tenders service was definitely below par, she rushed me with my order and when she made my drink she never returned except to deliver a bill, I was starting to take it personal but when another patron asked her if she was having a rough day I was thinking to myself exactly, I hope the owner reads this post. The establishment is the nicest in Norfolk but the place will never reach its potential with the service I experienced today.

Went here Thursday night for a burger and a drink and I thought it was great! Our waitress was super friendly and did a great job of making sure we were taken care of. I ordered a build your own burger. So what you do is you get a slip(on a mini clipboard on the table) and you mark off each item you want on your burger. You get to choose the type of bun, meat, wellness, cheese, veggies, sauces, etc. They make it to your liking! How cool is that?! I ordered a medium cooked burger with aged swiss, caramelized onions, bourbon steak sauce, and citrus mayo, all on a brioche bun. It was delicious! I also had truffle fries with it. They were good but not anything to rave about. They were having a happy hour special, $ 2 beers or $ 2.50 well cocktails. YAY! The reason I’m giving this bar 5 stars is because they had a special kind of bourbon my husband has been hunting for for over two years. The waitress gave us info on where to find our own bottle to purchase after talking to the bartender. This is a very well stocked bourbon bar! Everything we ate was delicious so we will definitely be back.

First time visit, went for lunch. Great impression with the establishment when first seated. Server was nice, but struggled to get much right with our order. Ordered the stew, for $ 8.00. Was brought a big soup bowl of broth and a few vegetables. No barley, no fried egg as mentioned in the description. I will give it another try at some point, but won’t hurry back in anytime soon.

Like the sports bar atmosphere and the drinks and food menu. However, the restaurant was filled with flies due to servers going in and out to serve customers out on the patio. We also waited to be seated and arrived there for Happy Hour. By the time we were seated Happy Hour was over and the manager, when asked, would not honor it. He said that we should have ordered drinks while we were waiting by the entrance. Seemed arrogant for a new business.

I really hate writing negative reviews of local places, especially in a small town with few dining options, But I hope the owners or whom ever is in charge of the Bar145 in Norwalk reads this. Because something has got to change. I’ll get down to it. The décor is cool, hip. The atmosphere is casual sportsbar-ish/restaurant. with a large bar in the center, and a stage in the corner for weekend performances. So for a local hang out– catch a show feel, it nails it. Job well done. The staff is friendly, and the service has been good, not great, but not bad either. But the food is just a huge disappointment. It’s borderline bad. I’m confused because supposedly the owner has won awards for his burgers and what not, but It’s just not translating to the Norwalk location. Maybe it’s better in the other locations, but I haven’t been to any of the others. We’ve eaten there 5 times now, and ordered something different every time. Not everything is bad, The Mac and Cheese is great, My wife loved the«thanks giving themed sandwich» and the build your own burger option is okay. But the rest of the menu options are poor at best. The fries are tasteless, a few of the burgers off the menu are flavorless poor representations of grilled beef. I can’t believe I’m saying this but I’ve had better burgers at Bob Evans down the street. Dead Serious. The place is always busy, It’s new and hip. a great place to get a drink after a hard day of work and catch up with your buds. It’s going to make it, but without me.

I want them to do well. That being said, I’ve been there about a dozen times. The last time, the fries were cold and dead(I ordered a salad, didn’t get it) and the burger was just ok. Kind of gristly. Way too much bun. The good news is the great service(at least at the bar), the beer and the music. It’s a cool place, maybe too cool for Norwalk. I would drink and hang out there, but eat before you go.

It’s still new, which is what I am trying to keep in mind as I write this. We had a party of six and all but one ordered beer, bourbon, or a cocktail. The drinks were pretty good… when we finally received them. We felt like the wait time between sitting down and having our waitress stop by for drink orders took awhile, then getting the drinks took some time, then being able to order dinner also took quite awhile. By time we did order dinner, we were starving. Okay, so dinner was pretty good(again, when we finally received it) so no complaints on food quality. I had the turkey and pear panini which was very delicious. I also sampled the fries and fried green beans(yum!) THEBIGGESTISSUE that we had with the place were all the gnats that were in the restaurant. I even was served my cocktail with a dead one in it! Our waitress fixed it as soon as I was able to bring it to her attention, but still. What if I had ordered a darker drink? That’s gross. The bugs were constantly flying around while we were trying to eat. That is the one thing that is stopping me from going back there for awhile. Which is a bummer, because we had been thinking about attending Wednesday’s $ 5 burger and martini night… but not til those bugs get out of there. To sum it up — it’s still new, and I get that. However, the waiting times were a bit long considering there wasn’t a lot of other diners, and you simply can’t have bugs flying around people’s faces when they’re trying to eat.

This is a great concept with a great menu! The food has always been on point, however the service and staff is what brings the place down. I have never in my five different vista here over the last six months had good service. This last time I’m not sure I would go back, as the staff is more worried about their friends, social media, and how they look that serving and taking care of customers. I’m sure I will go again and try but I would not recommend to folks if trying to impress or in a hurry or trying to make a decent date night there are far more comparable places with much better service!
