Food is always good at HUB 51. We tried the restaurant week meal and the fish tacos were undercooked. We turned them back in and they were simply reheated. The remaining meal was fine. It took 10 mins to get our receipt once we paid yet the restaurant was not that busy. It was overall a good evening, but not up to par with the usual Hub 51 standard.

The food was not that great. Our server asked if we had a food allergy, after telling him yes, we have a shellfish allergy he then asked us if cross contamination was ok. He should know that it is never ok. The server was nice other than insisting he could possibly serve us cross contaminated food.

Came here for a double birthday celebration, and Peter our server was simply amazing! He was so quick, attentive, answered every question we had, and sent us some lovely birthday desserts! Peter made us feel very special and it was a wonderful experience! Always love it here but can’t wait to come back!

Went to dinner with friends. They were out of the cornbread and wagyu burgers, which we wanted to order originally. We ordered the famous chicken nachos which were solid, along with the regular burger, chicken French dip, and an old fashioned. The drinks were subpar at best and one of the burgers was supposed to be plain with bacon— they added bacon bits instead of actual bacon. Food also took about 45 minutes to come out. Below average dining experience.

Despite making a reservation, it still took 15 minutes to be seated and despite requesting a high top, we were not sat at a hightop. They also ran out of bacon, which is a huge bummer for *brunch*. Other than that, really great service, kind people working there.

Dinner at Hub has become pretty mediocre. Reduced menu with higher prices. Brunch is better there. We’ve been going for many years but the food quality has really gone down. Ever time they have had a really good dish, they take it off the menu later. Too bad too, we used to love it

Shredded Chicken Nachos.... Shaki-Shaki Tuna... Spiked Coffee and Donuts are just a few of my favorite things. Seriously, Hub-51 never disappoints. Try these dishes, but also go for the Salads; Both Brussel Sprout and Crushed Pistachio Caesar are particularly declivous. You can't go wrong with the Wagyu Smash Burger as well!

It is way too loud. You can’t hear the staff and vice versa. It is difficult to have a conversation. People are yelling and dancing. It is a restaurant not a club.

Birthday At the time of ordering, I asked the waitress if the Southern Chicken Biscuit brunch selection came as shown with hash browns and the answer was yes, yet I received Sweet Potato fries. Additionally, I asked about the New Year’s Day promotion $25 gift card offer from wearing your outfit. The waitress indicated she would check with management and never returned with an answer. Understandably weekends are busy, but not so busy where your looking around to find your waitress. Regrettably, our waitress needed to be a little more attentive to service needs. Multiple patrons should not have to compete to get her attention.

Just a glorified bar. Scene was dead. Was told we couldn’t order guacamole w the chips and salsa because “you only get guacamole with items it comes with.” Bathrooms all the way downstairs and they smelled pukey. Won’t go back. Disappointing for Lettuce place.
