I’m kind of surprised about the glowing review. I went to Folklore last night with the ‘rents. I was surprised that on the first Saturday they are open the place did not feel very electric. While we were there fairly early in the evening, one would still hope to find plenty of people excited to be there to try the new place. Instead it was sparsely patronized and no one appeared to be particularly happy to be there. I found the food to be ok but definitely not great. We didn’t order any of the things you mention, so I’m open to trying again. I ordered the Rip Van Winkle and I could rip it up in a review if I was asked. I ate the whole thing, but mostly because I was hungry. The decor is like most places in the Springs: unfinished feeling, like it was an afterthought. The beer on tap was also a big disappointment. On the plus side, it’s probably better than Lucky Dumpling. I honestly wanted to like it, but I suspect many will be like me and walk away saying, “I think I’ll just stick with Jack Quinn’s.”
