    Amazing dishes and exceptional craft cocktails, kind and professional service, great ambience. One of a kind. We had lunch and then decided to go back for dinner the same day. Yes, it was that good. The baked camembert and the pork belly were my favorites.

    Orsolya, thank you for the glowing review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your experience so much that you came back for dinner the same day—that’s the best compliment we could ask for. The baked camembert and pork belly are definitely favorites around here, so we're glad you loved them. We look forward to welcoming you back for more amazing dishes and craft cocktails soon!

    The meal was delicious! Great flavors and portions. I was extremely satisfied and impressed with everything ordered: the BFGLT and fish sandwiches were excellent. The blueberry lemongrass soda and lemonade were amazing m. The egg roll was a wonderful appetizer. The sides, fries and ancient grains were great pairings. The service was great; friendly and attentive. We had a wonderful lunch.

    Don't like the employee charge on the bill and the booth cushions are way too low. Love the food and convenience
    Forgotten TonicResponded on August 4, 2024
    Thanks for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the food and convenience at Forgotten Tonic. We're sorry to hear about the low booth cushions; we are currently building new ones to correct this. The employee charge is optional, and a team member would have gladly removed it for you. This charge helps us provide employee benefits like health insurance, which is usually not seen in the hospitality industry. We hope to welcome you back soon on historic Aviles St. for an even better experience!

    From the appetizers to the last bite of our mains, we were sworn repeat customers! The cocktails were perfect! Ashley was perfect as our server - agreeable, informative, friendly, knowledgeable, and timely! The only thing to complain about is the benches in our booth were so sunken down that we could almost rake our food directly into our mouths from the plate! We’ll just ask for a table or a different booth next time. Because there WILL be a next time - for the foreseeable future! Forgotten Tonic is a memorable experience and we will be back! The Meatballs, the Cajun Egg Rolls, and the Bruschetta + the Sazarac and Pimm’s Cup get ESPECIALLY high marks!
    Forgotten TonicResponded on August 4, 2024
    We're delighted you enjoyed your experience and that Ashley provided such excellent hospitality! It's fantastic to know the cocktails and food left a lasting impression. We apologize for the sunken benches and appreciate your understanding. We're excited to share that we are currently building new booths to enhance your comfort. We’re thrilled to be your go-to spot on historic Aviles St. and look forward to welcoming you back soon for more memorable meals and perfect cocktails!
