Back Burner Restaurant & Tavern

Our service was great. Waitress was on point. Short Rib egg rolls were awesome. We went for the Prime Rib special but they had no prime rib, replaced with a beef wellington. It was not good. Filet was overdone and dried out no flavor, and it was cold. For the price would have done better just ordering the filet and had it cooked medium, would have been cheaper. My husband who basically hates all vegetables thought best part of the meal was the grilled asparagus. The madhed potatoes were not creamy and you did not get enough gravy on them. Had to ask for extra gravy. Usually we are very happy with our meals at Back Burner. Will just stick to our usuals and the Prime Rib special when available. The beef wellington was a first for us n will be our last.

My first time here and everything was excellent. The food was delicious and artfully served. My mom said it was the best creme brûlée she ever had in her life. I loved the decor and high ceilings, it definitely added to the wonderful experience. Our server, Randall, was a delight.

Overall this was a decent spot for a weekday lunch. Our server was lovely but perhaps a bit overwhelmed. 2 of us had the shrimp risotto which we both though was more of a risotto soup with the amount of sauce it was floating in. That being said, the flavors were nice. I cleaned my plate. We were a little surprised that there were bread plates but bread was not served at the lunch service. They kindly brought out crispy flat bread chip type things.

We just happened to find this restaurant. It has now become one of our favorite places. Diana was one of the best waitresses and provided an amazing date night experience. She made the best drinks, gave the best recommendations, and outstanding service. Every bite was high quality and every sip hit just right.

I've been eating at the Back Burner for years. We usually stop in every month or two for the filet mignon lunch. It used to be $22, and then $24, and is now $26. Also the ingredients changed last year and we were very unhappy about it. The original dish was a filet mignon in Bordelaise sauce, with Yukon Gold mashed potatoes and haricot vert (green beans). And if we asked for the diamond shape dinner rolls, we always received a few for free. Unfortunately, things have changed there. The filet mignon has now some blackberry sauce with frizzled onions and blue cheese. Who thinks these things up? And it comes with mashed potatoes and asparagus. If you want green beans, you have to pay an upcharge of $3! Totally ridiculous. No more rolls, they're only for dinner. You get this lousy flatbread th
