Brown Trout

Kids eat free every night at Brown Trout, 4111 N. Lincoln, which was a good enough excuse as any to take the whole family there for dinner.  The fact that the restaurant puts an emphasis on sustainability and using local products whenever possible was an added bonus.  We went on a Friday when the specialwas a fish fry, which is what both my husband and I ordered.  The fish and chips were quite tasty and came with three sauces for dipping.  The kids menu had all the standard fare with my younger daughter choosing the chicken fingers as usual.  My older daughter loves fish and even though the fish was not on the kids menu the waiter was very accommodating in providing a kid size version for her.  We had a very nice family dinner with lots of eating and not a lot of complaining.

The restaurant is closed on Tuesdays and opens every other day for dinner at 5 PM except Monday when it opens at 6 PM.  Brown Trout also does a Sunday brunch.  Metered street parking is available along Lincoln.  We were there right at opening and the restaurant wasn't busy at all.  The only other diners were a couple of other families.  Even though we were out with the whole family at a nice dinner the bill was very reasonable.  Good food, good price, and a good time.
