Love the vibes of the place! From the first experience I know it won’t certainly be my last. It a nice change of pace in terms of food offerings in Hanover which I really like. Chicken all the way our table had it, (boneless, sandwiches, wings) were delicious. Service was fast, surprisingly fast actually. A lot of good looking things on the menu, can’t wait to try more things!

Very kind staff who was happy to tell this tourist all about their town. Got an app, entree and dessert with my wife and we loved all of it. Poutine was great and not too much gravy. I got the 4 boneless chicken, biscuit and mac and cheese. As a man from the south, that was one of the best biscuits I’ve ever had. Lots of flavor with the chicken as well. Finished the night with the skillet cookie, and was almost in a food coma. We weren’t there on a live music night sadly, but that would be another plus if you find yourself lucky enough to go during a show!

What a lunchtime bargain! Sawtooth offers a 10 lunch special that includes a delicious cheeseburger, amazing fries, and a soda - all for 10! Server Alyssa was super calm, cool, & professional The restaurant itself is tucked away...located down a small street just off Main Street, through a door leading to a cool entryway down stairs.

This is a hidden GEM! The setting is modern, staff is friendly & hard working, and the food is delicious! We have become regulars because visiting this place leaves a smile in my family. We love their wings, salmon, and chicken waffles. I have never tried chicken waffles before and always thought it sounded like it really doesn’t go together. My bartender insisted that it was a favorite of many, and that we should try it. Oh well! It was love at first sight! It tasted better that what it looks! See the picture The only thing i would recommend is to expand beer/can selection. The selection could be more adventurous... the reality is that i have a hard time going somewhere else because i find this place fun and delicious. Other local places appear to have cranky staff... or struggle with good service. This place is awesome!

Really underrated bar scene. Menu is (for the area especially) creative and diverse. Very well executed, genuinely friendly and attentive staff, great beer and cocktail selection. Coming from Portland Oregon, they are a welcome oasis in the NE food desert.

Visited this place for my school's Halloween party and loved every bit of it! Great vibe and service! The food was great too (don't have a picture of that, but) - the fried brussel sprouts, black bean burger, chicken tenders, steak-cut french fries and mac and cheese were amazing! And amazing management - they ensured to keep the food hot and replenish the different sauces! Would visit again!

First time here, was greeted warmly and friendly. We ordered Vegan chicken sandwich with homemade chips, single burger with fries, bone in chicken wings with potato salad, Brussels sprouts. Everything was absolutely delicious and the server was fully attentive to us. It was so good we had to order some food to take home. I highly recommend this place.

This restaurant is a culinary delight! The "Hattie Be Damned" spicy chicken sandwich is a fiery masterpiece, the Ribs are tender and smoky, and the "Frying Spaghetti Monster" appetizer is a fun twist. The ambiance and service are top-notch. A must-visit for food enthusiasts!
