   Insanely loud, with the server screaming at us to be heard. It felt like I had sat in the 3d row of a loud rock concert afterwards, with my ears ringing. It’s hard to evaluate the food when you feel like Noriega getting blasted with music as torture.

   Great neighborhood spot for meet-ups: solid cocktails and varied menu; warm grain bowl a huge hit! Burger bun could have been softer - was not really "brioche" as claimed on menu. Lovely outdoor area. Not enough parking in lot - spillover at bank next door.

   The food is fresh and well prepared. The service is pleasant, attentive and overall solid. The floors are a skating rink and even with noticeable attempts to address the deafening sound, this is still the loudest restaurant I can recall ever attending. If your idea of fun dining is interesting bar food during the final 2 minute drive of a bird’s game at the linc, then this place is for you

   We had a wonderful time dining in at The Fort. Our food was very delicious. Our Kaitlyn provided excellent service for my wife and I. We will return soon

   Food and service were excellent, but we sat at a high top in the bar area and it was insanely loud. It wasn’t even super crowded…the acoustics are just bad. If you want to have any conversation, suggest you sit in the dining area. Otherwise, drinks and dinner were great and our server was delightful.
