I've been here twice. I went the Tuesday before the public opening. My friend and I just wandered in, sat at the bar, and were handed limited menus with no prices. We did however have to pay for our drinks. We had good drinks and the food was pretty good, although food was slow to come out of the kitchen. (But again this was before the restaurant had opened and the meals were free.) I also had the problem with the undercooked salmon but what was cooked was good. The desserts were really good. We had a goat cheese cheese cake, which was tasty although not as good as the one at Cork. (I prefer the goat cheese cheesecake at Cork because it is less sweet.) The star of the show was a chocolate pecan tart which was awesome -- a rich deep chocolate flavor with just enough sweetness.
I went again tonight with some other friends. Again it was a good meal. There was some confusion between table and kitchen. I ordered the meat loaf which came out with potatoes rather than the promised mac and cheese. When I mentioned this to the waiter, he quickly brought out a side of mac and cheese. Likewise, my friend ordered pork and was served chicken. They had him keep the chicken and brought out the correct pork dish later.
On both trips, I had excellent mashed potatoes. The vegetables sides were also good. Sadly there was no sign of the chocolate pecan tart, although the waiter did recall serving it last weekend. We did have the apple pie, which was an individual style so it had a lot of crust surrounding the fruit. The pie was well executed but I would prefer a greater ratio of fruit to crust. My friends had the devils food cake which was a large serving of rich chocolate cake.
All in all, although Founding Farmers has some food-delivery issues to work on, it has a lot of promise and I plan to go back soon.
