It is so sad to see one of your favorite's change into a restaurant that is not recognizable. All of our favorite items are off the menu - hay-smoked ribs, fried chicken, smoked pork chops. The menu on their website is not updated - so we were very disappointed when we selected Watershed for Father's Day and the menu wasn't what as expected. The menu was quite limited, and I ended up just getting a burger.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, our childcare didn’t pan out and we brought our son on the date. I called in advance to check and they were unbelievably accommodating trying to rearrange tables to add another chair. I was impressed before I got there, but once we arrived, we loved everything. The tomato salad was incredible, and my burger was THE best burger I’ve ever had on my life. My husband ordered the steak and liked it, but he was jealous of the burger! Our drinks were fantastic, and every detail in the menu was appreciated. We WILL be back. It was lovely.

The food unfortunately did not meet our expectations. Service was great. Bartender was irritated that We asked for gin on the rocks and tonic on the side which is very common and not difficult. Swordfish was dry, sweetbreads were overcooked and did not have any flavor. Nobody was thrilled with their dinner but table service and atmosphere was good .

They were out of fish, soup of the day and chick pea stew, all of which we tried to order. I ended up ordering the tomato salad; I couldn’t eat it because it was spicy hot, and that was not indicated on the menu. Just disappointed about them being out of so much. The barrel old fashioneds and their watershed Bottled in bond bourbon are good enough that we took two bottles home.

My husband has been a fan of watershed bourbon for a long time, but this was our first time eating here. The cocktails were absolutely sublime - I got a few gin cocktails, he got a few bourbon ones, including one that he dubbed the best drink he’s had in his life. So if nothing else, come here for the drinks. The food was quite good as well. We started with bread and spread with a white bean dip and a tapenade, both of which were delicious. Husband got the chef’s tasting - confit wings (spicy and fall off the bone tender), swordfish over beans and rice, and custard cake. All were delish, and paring the swordfish with rice and beans was nice so it was a filling meal. I got the veggie stew, which had very few veggies, mostly chickpeas, so I was a little disappointed. But overall our experience was great, and we will definitely be back to try more of everything!

We keep returning for both the spirits and the food. Both the soup of the day (pea and mint) and the double-smoked baby back ribs were delicious! A perfect complement to the distillery tour beforehand, where we picked up a great cocktail tip from Mark. We'll be trying out the Apple Brandy Sour this weekend.

It's been sometime since we'd been to Watershed Kitchen....that said, we always have a very good dining experience. The food, the service and the overall ambiance made for a great dining experience. We enjoy eating out and taking in different experiences so we seldom return to a restaurant we've been to regardless of how good our experience was. Only in exceptional cases do we return and Watershed is one of those!

Really dissappointed to eat here post-Covid after having great experiences when it first opened. The food was heavily salt-forward. The chicken dish was odd....tasted like ham and the texture was unusual. Not appetizing. The brussel sprouts and the broccolini were soaked in soy, and the broccolini was tough. The burger was decent, and so were the fries, the fingerling potatoes, and the two-dip appetizer. But honestly, that is just basic bar food and we were hoping for something more special. Part way through the meal I was desperate for something that tasted fresh, but everything was just salt, salt, salt. Cocktails are where they really shine. Creative and interesting. Service was friendly but not polished, although we are more forgiving these days because of staffing difficulties. Everyone is new, and that is ok, as the world gets back up to speed.

We had a delicious Sunday Supper at Watershed. Our server, Nathan, I believe (I’m sorry if I misremember) was superior— friendly and knowledgeable. He gave us exceptional service with one foot in a therapeutic boot! He talked about the award winning bourbon with enthusiasm, and for good reason: It’s excellent. I walked away with a 5th of the blended bourbon after enjoying a flight including the two award winners and an apple flavored bourbon that went well with desert. I had the salad of the day, slightly overdressed, but very tasty; followed by the mushroom risotto topped with a medley of shaved, sautéed veggies, also delicious. For desert I had what they call a custard cake, but it reminded me of transparent pie: very good and as I said, paired well with the flavored bourbon. My friend also enjoyed the salad, with the same observation that it was slightly overdressed, but very tasty. She had the short ribs and really enjoyed them. The taste I had was excellent. Definitely falling apart delicious. She also finished with the custard cake. We look forward to our next visit to Watershed Kitchen and Bar
