The braised short ribs were wonderful!! My only complaint is that our first round of Old Fashioneds did not have a cherry in them.

We absolutely loved our food, the only problem was I also got absolutely sick at 4 am for a few hours. I suspect I just caught a bug of some sort from what I had, the experience was great in the moment just not many hours later.

We came just as the new fall menu was released. The cocktails were delicious and a great wine list. The “Just Another Brick on the Wall” cocktail was one of the best I’ve ever had. The charred rosemary atop a dehydrated slice of lime added a smoked nose with every sip. It was fabulous. Otherwise the food was good but not over the top. Service suffered just a tad when they got busy, but overall a lovely evening.

Truffle fries were delicious. Short rib was tender and a good piece of meat but under-seasoned. Chicken was good, again a bit under-seasoned. But the vibe is odd. I was expecting something nicer given the price point of the entrees. It's a confusing mix of sports bar and fish house. The furniture is odd--the table for four makes it difficult to have a conversation if only two are at the table. No recognition of the special occasion we were there to celebrate--and that's fine, not looking for a free dessert but it's odd to ask if there is one and not acknowledge. I would go back but in no hurry to do so.
