Read More5th times the charm.
I have attempted to get take out from this location multiples times in the past, and at one time I had just about written off ever being able to do it. The first time, they didn't have a phone number to contact them. The second time, no one answered the phone after it was added. The third time I went right to the place, and the entire restaurant was reserved. The fourth time I got though on the phone, but the kitchen wasn't open for another hour. I thought for sure this was cursed.
At least, right before the end of the year, I was able to place an order over the phone and complete a purchase! Even better, just an hour before I put in my order, they updated the menu with a special weekly one that included some really tasty selections.
I ended up going with the Ultimate Grilled Cheese and a "Big Ass Pretzel", the grilled cheese coming with a cup of tomato bisque and home-cut chips and the pretzel with beer cheese and spicy mustard dips. All together coming to a little under $34 before tip. Comparatively to similar establishments, this was a pretty nice price.
Parking here is a little interesting, but I feel it is made to be exactly the size for the allowable number of patrons that can fit inside. It was quiet on my particular visit, but the staff was very friendly and attentive. Actually made me excited to get back home and dig into my meal.
Once I did start in on my meal, I have to first say I was blown away by how good the chips were. Normally you'd see this side with some half-assed kettle chips that almost feel like they poured them out of a bag, but here these things were so home made I honestly have never tasted any chips like them. In fact, I'd say they were closer to thin and crispy fires than chips. So darn good.
Alright, enough of the chips, the main course was also great. The grilled cheese paired so well with the tomato bisque, a match made in heaven. The soup itself was creamy and smoother than silk, with a tomato flavor that didn't overpower the cheesy goodness of the sandwich. The pretzel also paired well with its dips, though I brushed off all the salt from the pretzel as the beer cheese dip was salty enough. I get the appeal of making the pretzel look like a festival salt pretzel, but not for dipping, especially in salty dips. The mustard was good at cutting that salt flavor at least, though I'm not the biggest mustard fan, even I could appreciate the refreshing bite it added to the mix.
Overall I'd say the curse is broken and I am able to add Creekside Tavern to my list of locally approved spots to get dinner from, because my experience has been nothing short of memorable.
