Jekyll And Hyde Taphouse - Matthews

This was our first time dining here, and we will definitely return. Overall, I recommend this restaurant, though there are a few areas for improvement. Our group of four ordered a variety of dishes: the Bourbon Bacon Burger, French Onion Soup, a salad, and a grilled cheese sandwich. Everything tasted fantastic, and our drink refills were handled promptly. The waitress was friendly and accommodating. One issue we encountered was that the food was served at different times, with the burger arriving a full 10 minutes after the rest of the meals. While the restaurant was moderately busy, the front-of-house staff seemed adequate, suggesting that the back-of-house might have been understaffed. The interior decor was both interesting and clean, making for a pleasant atmosphere. Located in downtown Matthews, the restaurant has plenty of parking and is easily accessible.

I have nothing negative to say about this restaurant. Our waiter, Cody, was outstanding—patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely fun to be around. We had a group of ten women, nine of whom enjoyed quite a bit to drink. Cody was incredibly accommodating and made the experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend requesting him by name if you visit. The food was absolutely amazing—don't miss the pimento cheese balls; they're simply fantastic!

And then there were the burgers. My husband chose the Jekyll burger, featuring two ½ lb patties with a variety of toppings (I can't recall them all). It was truly a massive burger! I took a bite of one of the patties, and it was cooked to perfection. My son ordered the bourbon bacon burger, a ½ lb burger topped with bourbon-bacon jelly and what seemed like all the cheese in the kitchen (and that’s a compliment!). It was incredibly buttery and juicy, with the bourbon flavor perfectly balanced. We will definitely be coming back!

I enjoyed a wonderful final meal of 2021 at this restaurant. The staff was friendly and, if I may say so, quite attractive! All of our orders came out in a timely manner, and the portions were more than sufficient. There was an excellent selection of local beers. While the prices were a bit on the higher side, it was definitely worth it! I will definitely be back!

I absolutely love the atmosphere of this place! The burgers were delicious, and the bread pudding was also good. My favorite dish has to be the fried bacon pimento cheese balls. I can’t wait to come back and try more dishes!
