The Better Half - Restaurant in Lakeville - 20851 Holyoke Ave, USA

Food was great service was terrible during our late afternoon lunch. The waitress/bartender was more worried about flirting/conversations with the guy at the bar vs taking care of our table to the point I had to get up to request to get her attention to order, get silverware to eat, get the lemmings I requested for my water. Ambiance cute diner style place with a great patio. Food tasted good was fresh. What should have been a quick lunch took over an hour

Hey, South Metro friends. Have you been or tried ‘THE BETTER HALF’? On Sat., 9/2/23 my wife and I had an fantastic breakfast there. I had the awesomely delicious ‘Crème Anglaise French Toast’. My wife had the delicious OG OMELETTE. Just a great breakfast. So, on the table was a placard announcing specials. Today, Monday, 9/4/23 we came back to try the 50% off ‘CLASSIC SMASH’ burger with fries. WOW! They were so good. Everything you want on a burger - fried onions, pickle, cheese, and a special sauce. My wife had the ‘Expresso Martini’ that so smooth. Also our server, Shelly, was just great too. Made us feel very welcomed. We will definitely make THE BETTER HALF our go to place. P.S. they advertise a great Happy Hour.

I got the biscuits and gravy and my wife got the chorizo bowl. They where both awesome. The cheesey hash browns were some of the best if had. The brunch runs 8am to 2pm as far as I can tell. Sarah was was awesome behind the bar!

I had the chorizo bowl and my husband had biscuits and gravy. Both were delicious! Sarah was fantastic, and has a great energy! We will be back again!

I'm still not sure if I'm disappointed or not. Overall, it was a good experience for an evening meal at 6:30pm. Ordered chicken pesto sandwich, salads and tacos. Didn't like sandwich much. We would try this place for breakfast soon and hopefully will change the rating too. Lakeville is a great place and need good hangouts.

Although I’ve had several different meals I’ve enjoyed at this restaurant over the past year or so, my experience at tonight’s dinner left me wanting. Don’t get me wrong, the quality of the food was first rate. My order of Short Rib Rigatoni was very tasty but for $22.00, I would have expected more. Everything else is ala carte, so to get a side salad, it was another $5 or so. I would have expected a side of bread, or at least a roll, but none was offered. I know it’s a small place but that also makes it a noisier venue. If you’re looking for nice atmosphere, think about another place.

The Better Half is quickly becoming a date night favorite for my Wife and I! We started with the Smoked Lemon Pepper and Basil wings, which were great! It was great having a wing appetizer with a dry rub instead of only having sauce options! For our entrees my wife had the Parmesan Crusted Walleye, which has inspired us in some of our cooking at home, and I got the Cajun Shrimp and Chicken Risotto. We both had some of each others dishes, and they both had great layers of flavor notes throughout each bite! If you are looking for a new place to eat, don't pass on the Better Half!

I absolutely love this restaurant. In the short time it's been open, I've already been 6 times to try the menus and meals. For drinks, the jalapeno margarita, Irish coffee, and salty dog are excellent. The old fashioned is decent. The chorizo breakfast is flavorful and delicious, but would prefer it spicier. My favorite meal so far is the hanger steak....incredible. The honey buffalo wings were tasty, and the kids cheeseburger uses quality meat (something I'm discovering is getting harder to find). Very happy to have another excellent restaurant in Lakeville!
