    Had dinner with a large party on Christmas Eve and Franchesco's "knocked it out of the park" on a very busy evening. We had a great time!

    A friend recommended Hardware since we were going to be in the area. It’s a bit of a drive from us, but I’d definitely go back. We were seated in the heated patio area. The heater was a little loud and without, it was drafty but the fireplace was warm and beautiful. The drink menu is whiskey & bourbon dence but we had a nice red and a couple of really good local beers to start. We ordered 4 dishes and shared . My favorite was the brisket which came with the best potatoes I’ve had in a long time and served with just the right amount of a delicious sauce. Korean pork fried rice was another great pick. The salmon on the salmon salad was the right smokiness. The least favorite was the pork tenderloin which was perfectly prepared but needed a better sauce. The atmosphere and service were great. Their mission is commendable and something worth supporting.

    It's a nice place that I enjoy when I'm staying at the hotel. IMHO, the menu could use some updates or a broader range of choices. The servers are friendly and do a nice job.
