The Scene – The Knotty Pine originally opened in 1935, and was taken over by new ownership five years ago. The décor is fairly modern, but some of the adornments reveal the bar's antiquity.

Terrible is the only way to explain it

by KLECZEWSKI

Ever since the new owners have taken over, they have made it a point to attempt to turn this establishment into something it is not. We went to The Knotty Pine on New Years expecting something special. Instead we were served burned oily mushrooms, burned greasy and tough asparagus, dry, tough new york strip (which I may add was supposed to be served medium-well) dry cold chicken, and cold potatos. To add insult to injury, our server was inattentive, and we ended up dropping around $80.00 for the worst meal I have ever had. Other times we have visited this place and had similar (although not as terrible) experiences, each time noting that everything is overpriced, poorly cooked, or portioned improperly. I would not suggest going there unless it is simply for a cocktail and to listen to music.

  • Pros: Nice location
  • Cons: Everything else
