Judges

The tables were all reserved for dinner when we arrived around 5:30 tonight but there was plenty of window and bar seating available for walk-ins. I love the concept--the famous judges on the walls, the court-related terms for food and drinks...The space is beautiful and nicely designed in my opinion. My mocktail, the Innocent Brief was extremely refreshing, and not overly sweet. The shoestring pickle fries were good. A little too salty for my taste but my hubby loved them. His burger, the Cross-Examiner and my Bucatini Pomodro with Blackened Shrimp were the real showstoppers for us! I squeezed some lemon over my pasta to brighten up the dish a bit. It was delicious the way it was, but the lemon really transformed the flavor! And, his burger was so juicy and flavorful! Absolutely looking f

It's truly impressive what they have done inside judges. The staff was warm and friendly. They were attentive and the service was perfect. Hannah, our server, was wonderful and gave great suggestions and showed us around the new restaurant. What they did inside is so beautiful. All the details and love they poured into this place is so evident and I think it is a great addition to the Court Avenue District. The seating that faces 3rd Street is such a cute seating option. For food - we tried the sweet corn ribs, shoestring fried pickles, peach bruschetta, and bucatini pomodoro. All of them were fantastic and we would get again. We also tried an old fashioned, off-menu cucumber shrub mocktail, and espresso martini and all three were very good. They have done a great job crafting a menu. We

Super hip. Very instagramable place. Delicious food. Great variety of mocktails. Would recommend. Good service. Small menu, a little expensive but you’re paying for the atmosphere. I got the shrimp Caesar salad it was huge and delicious! The mocktail I got was the pineapple one and it was refreshing! Clean bathroom full of free toiletries! Would go back out with the girls! Great for a girls night!

Judges on Court Avenue delivers an elevated yet approachable dining experience that blends bold flavors with a lively downtown atmosphere. From start to finish, the meal feels thoughtfully crafted and satisfying. Great options on drinks and cocktails. We had the Butter and Burden similar to an old fashion and the Innocent Brief elevated lemonade, both choices with loads of unique flavors to standard bar mixes. The bruschetta appetizer is a standout and a must order. It’s packed with flavor, balancing sweet and savory elements in a way that keeps every bite interesting. The toppings are generous, making it a great dish to share and a strong opening to the meal. The Grilled Chicken sandwich with blackberry jam offers a creative twist on a classic. The chicken is juicy and well grilled, wh

Loved how different it was here! Tables were full, so we sat at the bar and the chairs were surprisingly comfortable. Service was fine at the bar, and the host at the front was kind. The pasta was fabulous, but the burger had room for improvement. No dessert menu YET (I was told it is in the works), but I look forward to coming back and sitting at a table with full service!
