Me and my boyfriend have been coming here for sometime. It's one of our favorite spots in the city to just grab some cheese and pair w wine. We always sit at the bar where the service is excellent. The cheese specialist always explains to us about the cheese and what it goes well with. Even if it's an unusual side like pickled onions it's always on point. We usually do the 4 cheese and 1 meat where the cheese specialist will pick whichever he thinks would like best. We just tell him no blue cheese plllllease. It's always a pleasant surprise. Definitely recommend. We normally don't eat just fill ourselves w wine and cheese but the people around us are always eating and food looks delicious!
My two friends and I had a reservation at 1pm on a Saturday so we were able to order off the brunch menu.
We ordered the fried chicken with biscuit, breakfast burger, and The Weekender cheese plate.
The fried chicken was SO good especially with the hot honey and jalapeño coleslaw.
They forgot the egg on our breakfast burger but later brought it out separately when we asked for it. The burger was also delicious.
The cheese plate was a nice sweet balance to the other dishes, wish there were more crackers vs the bread because the bread filled us up so much.
The service was skimping with minimal checkups so it took a little to flag a waitress down but overall we really enjoyed our experience!
Yummy food. Everything had cheese and it was good albeit a bit rich. Price was fair for everything. It hits the spot for casual environment and menu but with good quality and taste. It did take a long time on a Sunday afternoon even though the place was almost empt…
Do you like cheese?
If the answer to this question is no, then I'm pretty sure we can't be friends.
But if you do, this is the place to be!
They have what seems to be millions of cheeses from all over the world and a very friendly staff to help lead you in the right direction. All I had to do was tell the person behind the counter the types of cheese I usually like and he was able to recommend 3 delicious, different cheeses right off the bat. Also bought the apple butter they make and it was really good. I would go here every day if I could.
Loved it.
Quality and choice of meets and cheeses excellent, we let the resident cheesemonger pick our cheeses and a fine job she did too…I can't remember the names but safe to say you can't go wrong if you give her a steer on what you like and don't….
Dessert was a cracker too, I think this will be a regular place for sure.
"I don't believe in brunching, but I really liked this place."
Yea, I'm anti brunch. Is this something worth taking a stance on? Absolutely not, so I'll just leave it at that. I came by on a Saturday afternoon. I tried their Mac & Cheese as well as their avocado toast, both of which were delicious. Be sure to add bacon onto the Mac & Cheese, as it really adds to the flavor, in case you didn't know that about bacon lol. The cheese to macaroni ratio was pretty on point too. Yup, that matters to me. The portions aren't too filling, so if you've got a huge appetite, you may want to order two dishes. The burger here is very good too. I believe the meat comes from the butcher shop down the street. Very high quality and well prepared. I ordered the burger with an egg in it, but I don't think I'll do that again because the yolk exploded off the burger and I had to eat them separately.
There was no wait to be seated, but food took a while to come out. However, it's definitely worth the wait. The wait staff is really friendly, and I really liked the laid back atmosphere. Would come back.
Murray's is a dimly lit cheese bar with great meats and cheeses. In addition, they recommend beer and wine to pair with each item, which was a great touch. Best to come with a big group so you can order a lot of food and eat family style.
The buffalo cheese curds are absolutely incredible and a must-order.
We also got a 3 meat, 3 cheese combo of the chefs choice. The duck salami was very good. It was oily (in a good way) w/ nice spice. The prosciutto was delicious. La Tur was amazing, and was my favorite cheese they brought. It was creamy and buttery, paired with an almond honey that complimented it well.
I will definitely be back, and cannot wait to get more of those buffalo cheese curds and La Tur in my mouth!
We got the cheesemonger's cheese plate and the raclette. The cheese plate was really good, and it's fun how the chef chooses the cheeses for you.
The raclette was definitely an upsell (we were going to order the fondue and our server convinced us to give the raclette a try) and while good, it pretty much felt like another cheese plate. They give you the exact same pieces of baguette bread, a board with a few different types of meats, and then the slides of raclette cheese. You heat the cheese slices on a little pan over a candle, and then when it gets all melty, you scrape it off onto the bread. It was good, but nothing special and a bit pricey for what it is.
I had a great time here with friends, but I would probably recommend not ordering the raclette if you're going for a cheese plate!
