He put up with a bunch of almost-50 year olds having a good time in their home town. And the food was great. I had The Rachael, basically a Reuben but with turkey, and my partner had the Margherita flatbread. The only downside is the acoustics - made for a very loud night and hard to hear others at times. But that could also just be us getting loud.

She made great recommendations and helped us decide based on our time constraints. She was attentive and gave us a lot of information about the food, live music, DJ and art for sale on all the walls. We weren't super hungry, so we tried the flatbread - sooo good. I will be back because the whole menu, including the drinks, sound wonderful. They offered zero spirit, GL and other substitutions if needed which is nice. The atmosphere has a moody, darker hang out vibe to it. I loved it and can't wait to bring some friends and family back! She recommended reservations on the weekends, especially on "First Fridays" as that's when they do events and an art crawl on Broadway when the weather is nice. We parked on the street in front of the building so I'm not sure if there is a parking lot. They do have outdoor seating as well in the front of the building. I remember when this location was a food co-op waaaaaaay back in the day. They did a great job transforming it into a relaxing bar and restaurant. We will go back and I highly recommend you check it out!

Upon entrance, I was dazzled by the Abstract. I honestly wasn't prepared for an automatic sliding…read moredoor, and anyone who witnessed me coming in could clearly tell. But then you're presented with this shiny chandelier, illuminating this wide chamber, and hovering over a smooth, curved bar. The sides of this huge dining space are lined with dining tables, and walls lined with artwork, making the name quite appropriate. Subtle haloes of light dot the ceiling, and the color palette of the place (besides that big ol' chandelier) is dark, cool, and easy on the eyes. I took a seat at the main bar and was served within minutes. I enjoyed some light pop, rap, and classic rock tunes bumping in the background while I sipped on a delightful Smoked Apple Reserve. Every sip was a punch of sweetness, followed by an air of smokiness, and just a splash of herby aftertaste. It was however, not the kind of drink you could chug, so I sipped slowly throughout my meal. I'll have to come back for the appetizers, as I hear they're the star of the show, but neither the flatbreads nor the traditional bar-fare excited me. Thanks to Yelp though, I learned of the Blueberry and Brie Grilled Cheese, which I'd initially dismissed due to my dislike of Brie - the cheese and her portrayal of Captain Marvel, let's be honest. But I gave it a chance and ~woah~ it was something else. First of all, it's a perfectly cooked grilled cheese, with a flaky, crunchy exterior and addictingly cheesy inside, however I was ~taken aback~ by the flavor. I think I honestly had a Ratatouille moment, where that flavor of berry compote transported me to my childhood, chowing down on blueberry pancakes on Friday morning before school. At the same time, it doesn't dominate the flavor profile - it adds a subtle and satisfying sweetness to the creamy richness of the melted Brie, and it does it oh so well. The plentiful pieces of proscuitto provided some palatable protein, while also being a contrast in flavor and feel to the Berry and Brie. The fries were a little heavy on the straight potato flavor and not so much on seasoning and salt, but some garlic aioli did the trick there. The service was superb and the atmosphere was nothing like I've experienced in this city. I didn't expect to love this place as much as I did, but I can't wait to come back to try more apps, drinks, and return to that beautiful blueberry and brie...

Decided to find a place we've never been that was between BC and home. Discovered Cork and Barrel. Looked good. Reviews were great. Called and spoke with the owner (so kind) to make sure we could get a table, and to Angola, IN we traveled. The owner warmly greeted us by name (per our phone conversation) and we were seated at a quiet, casually elegant corner table. Decor is beautiful, subdued. Music played softly. Lights were dim. (We recognized the location which several years ago was "The Hatchery.") Lovely ambiance. Food and beverages were wonderful! We shared a cold and crunchy wedge salad which the kitchen split for us. As our main meal, we shared three dishes from the tapas menu: smoked salmon, ahi tuna, and 3 mini shrimp tacos. All are pictured and described below. Our server, Megan, was a pure joy! We also were treated to the bruschetta...a nice surprise! SO fresh! Yum! Will we be back? YES! Should you try Cork and Barrel? ABSOLUTELY!
