   Food was very good, it was very quiet when I first was seated, but it got lower as the time passed. The hostess offered seating in the patio area as she said it was warmer there due to fireplace, but then seated me next to the window and that was iced over so I moved inside. Enjoyed the pacos!!!!

   Another great night with delicious food! I went the usual: Teriyaki Green Beans to start, Peanut Butter Burger next, and ended with sharing the Cookie Skillet. So good! Shoutout to the folks in the back for continuing to send out amazing tasting food! Thanks to Keith for being an amazing server and a wonderful person.

   I’m from out of town and always look forward to meeting cousins for lunch at The Block! Today did not disappoint! In gluten free and love the Yum Yum bowl! Someone else enjoyed the breasted chicken sandwich and another loved the wings and truffle fries. It’s so comfortable sitting in the enclosed patio (and warm). We were never rushed and enjoyed visiting and eating our yummy lunches. The server was great! I’ll be back the next time I’m in town!

   Awesome spot with a menu sure to please everyone in your group. Our group enjoyed the salmon salad, steak salad , burgers and the brisket sandwich. Tasty and perfectly prepared. Service was flawless- not the rushed, table-turning mentality so common these days. Great cocktails and huge beer selection. Cozy and cheerful decor. And don’t fear the patio- plenty warm and comfortable. We will be back!

   We had an absolutely wonderful night. From the teriyaki green beans to start, the special Peanut Butter Burger for the main, and ending with a chocolate chip cookie skillet with caramel and ice cream. The food was outstanding. The Peanut Butter Burger was one of the best tasting burgers I've had. Great flavor, juicy burger, bacon, and melted cheese. I was extremely impressed. Getting Keith as a server again always makes for an amazing night. Remembering our food/drink likes, dislikes, and preferences. Being one of the funniest and down to earth people we know. Constantly humble and courteous. We had such a good time. We realized we were pretty much the only ones left and we were just hanging out and talking. No one ever asked us to leave, just let us enjoy our time until we left. Thanks again to everyone for putting together a wonderful night and for being amazing people!

   Thank you so much for the kind words, Mike! We're beyond thrilled to hear you had such a fantastic night with us. The Peanut Butter Burger is a crowd favorite, and we're so glad you loved it! It’s also great to hear Keith made your experience even better—he’s truly one of a kind. We’re so lucky to have you as a regular, and we can’t wait to welcome you back for another amazing night. Thanks again for your support and for making our day brighter! -The Block Crew

    We dine with you most Thursday evenings and have done so for 3+ years because you are the most consistently excellent restaurant in town. Food is always good and the specials keep it interesting, and Bryan is the singularly best server/dining guide in the hospitality industry. The rest of your staff is just as awesome (well, almost as awesome as Bryan). Keep doing what you're doing because it is definitely working!!

    Wow, thank you for being such loyal guests for over three years, Marc! Your kind words truly mean the world to us. We're thrilled that you enjoy the food, specials, and exceptional service from Bryan—he’ll be so happy to hear your praise! We’re lucky to have an amazing team that makes every visit special. Thank you for your support and for letting us be a part of your Thursday tradition. We can’t wait to see you again soon! -The Block Crew
