    We had a reservation for 11:45 but because of the football game, they were running 10-15 minutes behind, we were five minutes early. (The wait time was the same with or without a reservation.) When we finally sat, the server let us know they were out of french toast. I tried to order a tea, only peach available. I said, OK, I'll just do a diet coke, they only do 'real" coke in the bottle. (I was the DD) The noise was so loud we could not hear each other at the table and the food took almost a half hour. I think what bugs me the most was the blazafaire attitude, like, just deal with it. Brunch is Ok, dinner is better, but it will be a while before we do either.

    The food was really good but the portions were very small considering the price. The service was good but if you want to have a conversation, I suggest sitting on the rooftop because inside is very loud.

    Lincoln Street was overall a great experience. Would I return to dine, no. Bc the vegan and/or non-beef and pork options are limited. Everyone in my party enjoyed their food though. I know, I sound confused. I had a pasta with pesto and it was very tasty!! My table enjoyed mussels, waygu steak, fries, steak burger, pimento cheese (surprisingly good, I don’t like pimento cheese) the sourdough bread was chefs kiss, and 1 guest had tar tar…I’m probably not spelling it correctly. Overall experience was a 7.5/10 the lighting was too low and there was a party that was fairly loud (they were a smaller party than ours) we had 7 people. Also we needed water and they weren’t refilled in a timely fashion. We also felt slightly rushed at the beginning but this could be a personal experience. I didn’t go in ready to order or looking at the menu immediately. My guests took the order ask and ordered. I asked twice for some time. I just wouldn’t return to dine bc I don’t feel like the prices match the experience/comfort of the establishment. I would def return to the bar. Can’t remember what it was called but it has rosemary in it. It was goood! Just add an additional shot!!
    Lincoln Street Kitchen & CocktailsResponded on October 29, 2024
    Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the pasta, sourdough bread, and the variety of dishes your table tried. We appreciate your suggestions about expanding our vegan options. We’re happy to hear you’d return to the bar for that rosemary drink, our "Herb Your Enthusiasm". We hope you’ll consider dining with us again in the future. Thank you!
