    I’ve always enjoyed going to the local on 50th even before it changed its name. I’m a little disappointed in their wine list now that it’s become a full bar. The noise level has also increased. All in all it is a busy bar/restaurant and I’m happy to see their success. They still have the best burger!

    We love The Local. Good food, happy atmosphere and close to home. A Father's Day dinner was just the casual time we wanted. Beer...what can you say? It's beer. They do have lots of choices and a full bar as well. Peach cooler was good, but very sweet. Calamari was good, nothing special. but our entree salads were superb!! Mediterranean Salad, tomato, onion, capers, cukes, calamada and green olives with oregano and tarragon dressing. One was topped with salmon and the other with tender prime steak--so delicious. Would definitely have that again. Our waiter, Manny, was friendly, helpful and attentive. Looking forward to going back. They have a nice patio area which will be pleasant in cooler weather. They also have events and music on certain days. Check their website. They take reservations.
