This is a nice location, and decent food. The atmosphere is comfortable and has a decent vibe. We sat in the bar, so I don't know what the restaurant feels like. There is also a small upstairs bar that looks like it's saved for special events or private parties... Unfortunately for them, our burgers came out very overcooked. We'd ordered rare to medium rare and they came out well done. Actually slightly blackened on the edges... I'm not willing to pay $16 for a burger that is been cooked completely differently from how I order. I called our server over, and he took them back to the kitchen and the manager. Fortunately, they remade our burgers and got them rare to medium rare and they were very tasty! The fries are excellent! They are similar to steak fries, in that they are thick cut, but they have a curl to them which makes them fun! Also, the fries are seasoned very nicely. I'm not usually a big fry person, but I really enjoyed these!
Delicious 😋! Great menu with a good amount of variety. I had a hard time choosing. Started with the lemon lavender gin spritzer and shishitos followed by the balsamic chicken sandy and poutine. Waiter was great! 🤍
A true cut above! The passion by chef Brian for the food and menu really shows through! Tried the braised short ribs for the first time and can't stop thinking about when I can get them again! Amazing! Our waitress Stephanie was amazing too. Also we've been here at least three times so far and have been impressed each time. If you can I highly recommend the meat and cheese board as it was incredible too.
Friday, Aug. 5th. Busy, probably normal for Friday. We waited in line to be seated 5 minutes or so. Taken to a table. It was cold and I didn't bring my jacket. Also the music and conversation were very loud so this made it very difficult to hear anything. Outside and upstairs were available but the road noise was so bad, it really wasn't an option. We both had water. Other drinks started at $6.50 and went up from there. We both ordered the brisket because the server said the bbq sauce was awesome. The brisket arrived with hardly any sauce. I ordered the chips instead of coleslaw and my husband did not get that choice, they forgot his Cole slaw and didn't offer him a different side. We did get some extra BBQ sauce, a bit reminiscent of Memphis BBQ but it's missing something, not sure what, maybe soul. So there's water with ice, brisket, BBQ sauce, beans, chips, service, atmosphere and price. The price was at least comparable if not better than expected for the amount of brisket. The server was very busy, but the service was still good. The atmosphere was cold and loud, no one would want to stay and hang out. The chips would have been great if they had added more salt and no pepper. The beans were spicy hot, not everything tastes significantly better the more spice you add. The BBQ sauce reminded me of Memphis. Not as good, but close. The brisket was very tender and tasty. However they served it on white bread which I can't have because of the wheat and much of the meat was actually fat. Compare the pictures. One of them is the amount of fat that can't be consumed. The water tasted different. The ice was fine.
One of the worst meals I’ve spent way too much money on in a long time. We were Disappointed when we went in person a year ago, and are disappointed now. The Cajun Alfredo pasta had exactly THREE slices of sausage and maybe TWO pieces of chicken. AND it was supposed to be penne, it is cellentani pasta. It had zero flavor, my retired Army father said he has had better MREs. The Korean BBQ Skewers were PATHETIC, skinny pieces of meat with no flavor. Looked NOTHING like their photo. The brussel sprouts were okay, but tasted burnt. They didn't include the piece of toast we paid extra for. All around incredibly disappointing, will NOT be repeat customers. With fees and tip for the delivery driver, over $80. I should say, I KNOW the cost of quality ingredients have gone up and makes it difficult for restaurants to maintain quality and overhead. However, if that is the case, DO NOT post pictures or allow them to be posted that falsely advertise a quality and quantity of food that simply isn’t accurate.
