    Great place to have a meal! Drinks well made and satisfying. The ambiance is great! My chicken was a bit more crispy than expected, but edible, it would’ve been nice if it were hot (temperature), perhaps ask the question do you want hot or cold chicken (accompanying salad)… I would recommend and return to try other items on menu.

    Another great experience at the Foundry. Today we ate outside which is always a treat this time of the year. I tried the salmon which I have never had before as an add on to my farm salad. It was so delicious and quite an ample portion. I will definitely order it in the future. I am so grateful that we have such a lovely restaurant in our neighborhood. It truly sets this 55 + community apart from so many others.

    We had family in town. I love that we are recognized and greeted! Our guests are always impressed by that. The only feedback is to check often for drink refills. Food is always great!

    The Foundry is a beautiful venue in Trilogy Lake Norman. They have a new executive chef who has upped the flavors and quality of the menu. In nice warm weather, we always choose to eat outside on the patio

    The atmosphere and food is always outstanding. The wait staff is wonderful and the manager visits your table at least twice with a smile and to make sure everything is perfect. It’s always a great night with great food

    I do apologize for all of the noise, we had an event going on in the Event Center and everyone came in to eat before hand. Please come again Alan and give us another try. Sincerely, Bobbi Christopher F&B Assist Manager
