We went on a little date night adventure and our 1st stop was a nice dinner at Kounter. We had reservations so we did not have to wait. This was our first time to this restaurant and it’s not very large inside so I would recommend making a reservation in advance. The history of this place is so interesting to learn about and great that the owner kept the original counter and barstools! The food was great! The service was fast and friendly. We also met Chef Rob, such a down to earth friendly guy. If you are looking for a local date night spot, give Kounter a shot! Then take a peek at Elsie’s at Kounter for a unique experience…that review is coming soon!

I had a pretty good experience at Kounter! From the moment I walked in, the historic atmosphere was preserved impeccable and the service was top-notch. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. The presentation of the dishes was impeccable, and you can tell a lot of thought goes into the menu. However, while everything looked incredible, I found that some of the dishes lacked the bold seasoning I was expecting. The flavors were good but didn’t quite reach that next level of excellence. Overall, Kounter is definitely worth a visit for the ambiance, history, and service. With a little more seasoning in the dishes, it would easily be a 5-star experience! 4/5 stars.

We had Mothers Day brunch and as usual, Kounter did not disappoint. Evan was an awesome, attentive server with a great personality. I had chicken and waffles and my husband had shrimp and grits with a side of the house potato hash, and Cubano toast. The chicken was bone in drumsticks, which was a little different, but the outside was very light, crispy and delicious. Bottomless mimosas of course were a perfect blend; not too strong, not too sweet. Everything was cooked perfectly and when they box up what you can’t finish, they even put the date on the box for you. Thank you Kounter for a great experience!
