    Went there for Father’s Day, unfortunately for a Troy Gaurd restaurant I was expecting it to be out of this world but it wasn’t. We waited 20 min for my 2 little kids to get orange juices, after asking 2 times. My son got 1 waffle, for 7 dollars with no sides that came with it which I thought was a little much considering there were other items offered for kids on the menu for the same price that had multiple items to choose from…just doesn’t make sense to charge that much for a kids waffle. My husband did love his meal and mine was average. We love the other TAG restaurants but this one just didn’t live up to the name.

    Our server may have had a bad day but she was not very efficient and forgot things a few times. We were too worried to ask for any help as he already seemed annoyed. When we did ask for things she would rudely drop on our table without acknowledging us.

    It my 3rd time visiting. I would make one recommendation and that is to make sure you arrive in plenty of time to enjoy your dinner. They close at 9 on weekdays and we felt a bit rushed at the end. Our reservation was at 730, my guest were 15 minutes late. We had to order dessert if we wanted it in the middle of our entree as the kitchen was closing. Other than that I love this place. I will be back, but earlier :)

    F N G HighlandsResponded on May 5, 2022Again thank you Kathryn! We love the feedback! I will reach out to my servers and make sure we are on the same page. Our policy is to stop seating @ 9pm. Our kitchen will remain open until you have finished with your meal and we should never be rushing you or making you order ahead. My apologies. We are looking forward to your next visit and thank you again for you review!

    We had a pretty terrible experience at FNG last night. The manager ignored us when we walked in, and sat his two friends right away who walked in after us. We waited for our table for 20 mins post reservation time and although we went to the bar to order drinks, the bartender snapped at us and told us he couldn’t take our full order. The manager then proceeded to snap at us when we were just trying to be seated and get drinks. When we were finally seated, the waitress comes over with water and leaves the pitcher on our table and goes “I can’t reach your glasses. Stay hydrated!.” The staff eventually realized they messed up and apologized to us and gave us a discounted check. That said, the manager handled the whole thing so poorly and was more concerned with flirting with his two friends then providing us good service. The food was actually delicious but the staff really messed up. I just moved to the neighborhood and will not be coming back.

    The chicken sandwich was inedible. Not joking when I say it was the driest chicken I've ever had. I thought my wife was over-reacting until I tried it. The tomatoes on it were two ends so basically just tomato skin. I had the Bison enchiladas. They were okay but not worth $26 IMO. My daughter had Mac and cheese with grilled chicken on top. No complaints there.

    Mistakenly went during Restaurant Week so the menu was truncated. Good options though, service was attentive, bar was super backed up but completely understand. The grilled cheese was a bit dry and the fries super salty, but the flavors were there. Been here for HH as well which is fun and a decent deal, esp for bevvies. Will definitely go again to experience the full menu, and when it's warmer the patio seems stellar.

    F N G HighlandsResponded on March 31, 2022Thank you so much for the feedback! I have passed on your comments to Chef Charles and we will be working on our seasoning! We are excited for some awesome Patio Happy Hours this summer as well! Looking forward to seeing you enjoy a bevvie or two then! Cheers, David Caughey FNG General Manager

    I was very excited to try this place and super glad we had reservations. They were however, overwhelmed. My husband and I ordered items off the special restaurant week menu and we were both, unfortunately, underwhelmed. His sous vide pork chop was overcooked and tough and my fish was just okay-- not the heavenly fish I remembered having at TAG restaurant. The cocktails were delicious and my son's short rib dish was very good too. The other items ordered were average. And it was expensive! I don't mind expensive on occasion if the food is amazing, but this wasn't. They were super busy and likely not staffed well enough so we had a very long wait- not a big deal that night for us though. It was also very loud. I could barely hear my kids on the other side of our booth. And speaking of which-- if you are short like me, 5' 2" you may want to opt out of the high booths-- my feet didn't touch the ground. And it was tight fit table wise for my husband. Would I go back? Sure. I'm always willing to give restaurants at least three tries. :)

    We got in the restaurant and expected American food based off Open Table recommendation and this menu seemed a little different. We ordered an appetizer of the bologna sliders and it was underwhelming burnt Canadian bacon on pHawaiian sweet rolls and a ruffles chip. I did order a cocktail, I can’t remember the name, and it was really good. We ended up leaving after getting those though because of server wasn’t welcoming and was kind of rude. Didn’t welcome us, tell us his name, say more than 2 syllables or anything that’s normal when going out to dine.

    We had never been to this restaurant before and it was great! We had friends from Colorado Springs in for an early dinner and happened to get there for the happy hour. Both the food choices and drink choices were varied and wonderful. We had the shrimp, charcuterie board and the best chicken sliders ever. And yes we still ate dinner because we are piggy. We had the beet salad, bison enchiladas and the hamburger - seriously all the food was wonderful and no one had any complaints. Great service, great space and great food equals a great night out.

    The food and drinks were great but service is very average. Took awhile for our waitress to come see us when first sitting down. We ordered drinks and an appetizer when she came back. Drinks took awhile to arrive then she asks if we want to order an appetizer….. so she forgot and had to re put in order. Food was good but service was slow we would have ordered more drinks etc but it took so long for someone to come by.
