The Hornet

Great restaurant with excellent food options and a wide selection of drinks and juices. The prices are reasonable, and the service is good. I had the burger, which was very tasty. I appreciated the customization options, which I think is a standout feature. My only suggestion is to make the burger patty slightly smaller to make it easier to eat with hands without needing utensils. The sweet potato side was very good; I highly recommend ordering it. I really enjoyed the ambiance, the decor, and the music.

The simple fact that they have such an extensive allergy menu for everyone is fantastic. They have a celiac safe space for prepared gluten free foods and have so many choices. We had the fish n chips and the honey stinger chicken. Everything came out hot and delicious. Would return.

Very lively, fun place with an eclectic variety of food. I tried the elote corn, buffalo bone-in wings, and the bread pudding. Why choose when you can have it all! All were delicious. The service was very fast for a Friday night, and staff all nice. I was able to get a table right away when I went around 6pm. Of course, parking in the are is a pain, but worth it for some really great food and a fun, casual atmosphere! I parked in a paid lot a couple of blocks down the road.

Just moved back into the area after being in the burbs for 10 years and The Hornet is still there and still putting out fantastic food. Had my old favorite the Broadway Dip and man was it good. I also got the bread pudding….dangerously good!! Already planning my next meal there!

First time experience will have me coming back for decades. Wandered in on a whim, discovered they do a bloody Mary bar on the weekends. Ok, I'm in. Browsing the menu and I discovered they cater to gf/celiac. Ordered the clogger burger, mid rare gluten free bun. Came faster than I expected with a PERFECT warm pink center. And topped with a fried egg whose white was firm but fluffy, the yolk perfect and runny. Came with fries. I cleaned my plate. Words do the atmosphere no justice. And the lovely bar staff made me feel welcome and were super attentive. 11/10 just come once. If you leave unsatisfied, I'll buy you a beer. UPDATE: I've been working my way through the menu, and have discovered more gold. It is my pleasure to introduce to you: the Chophouse Melt. Shout out to the artist at the grill. I ordered mine mid-rare with gluten free bread. Not only was the cook PERFECT(which is difficult to do with crusted/coated meats), but the gf bread was grilled to perfection. This thing was juicy, savory, peppery, sweet, and tangy. The onions 🤤🤤🤤. Not only was the meal great, but the saint behind the bar was able to get my order and go above and beyond despite being in the weeds. Once again: stop in, try something. And if you leave unsatisfied, I'll buy you a drink. Update again: I've found it. The only item that needs to be on the menu. Honey stung chicken. Keep in mind the entire menu can be GF. Enter a perfectly fried chicken cutlet served with honey and chili flakes. This thing was so tasty I burned my mouth in scarfing it down. Crispy crunchy coating and moist in the middle. Combined with the veg(green yellow squash and bell pepper) and mashers with sausage gravy, of which I'd like a bucket of please. I can only complain about the reasonable portion. It should come as a platter lol. Honorable mention to the steak(a New York strip I believe) which I ordered mid-rare. It came more rare than mid, and the chimi churi..... Another candidate for bucket sales. As usual, the FOH staff made each visit worthwhile, and were wonderful and attentive. I promise you'll enjoy every minute spent here.
