    We enjoy Hereford house and like to go on Sundays for the brunch as well as the occasional dinner out. The Hot Honey Chicken and Waffle is my favorite! While normally it’s excellent, this time our food wasn’t great. My waffle was over cooked to the point of tasting a bit burned, and they were out of maple syrup (which would have been good to know when I place my order). The hot honey chicken was excellent as always. My husband had the breakfast skillet, but the steak chunks were pretty hard and just did not taste good. If this were my restaurant and we ran out of maple syrup, I would have sent someone to the store to buy some before offering the waffles. Our service was attentive and we enjoy the atmosphere at Herford. Just an off day, I hope.

    You can't beat the Duo Dinner for $99. Our entree came out before we were done with our salads, which we hate when restaurants do that. We mentioned it, they apologized and gave us two desserts. It means a lot when a place recognizes disappointment and makes up for it. Would definitely go back.

    Excellent ambiance, food, and service. Loved every bit of it. Get the ribeye or KC strip with the blackened garlic butter on top. You wont regret it.
